Is anyone else singing “It’s the most wonderful time of the year” over and over? I am, and Baby Bird isn’t even in school yet!

Copyrights to Label Daddy Label Daddy is all ready to send your little ones back to school in style with their personalized labels. Gone are the days of using permanent marker to label your clothes only to have it either permanently stain them in the wash, or wash off all together. Now your little ones can mark their items using colourful stickers with fun letters and cute pictures. And it isn’t limited to just clothes — shoes, backpacks, pencils, cups, books, the list is endless..

The best part is that they are dishwasher, microwave and washer/dryer safe so you won’t be reapplying new stickers with every wash. My favorite pack is their School Pack. I won this pack in a giveaway awhile ago and we have made good use of the stickers. This package sells online for $40 US and includes:

1 Bag Tag
45 Extra Small Tags
30 Small
20 Medium
10 Large
18 Mini shoe labels
8 Shoe
4 Zipper Tags

That’s enough to keep your little one in labels for the school year. I suggest that if your little one is old enough to make some choices for themselves that you include them on the design process. They can pick the colour, font and image and be proud that it was their design. In the image selection are also a lot of Disney characters so everyone should find something that is perfect for them.

Look at me gushing on about the School Pack, and that’s not even what I’m reviewing today.

I’ve been looking at the Label Daddy site for awhile, and every time I visit, I am there for my own reasons. I’ve been really interested in trying out their Garbage Bin Labels. Dorky, yes I know. But one of my pet peeves is spray painted house numbers on garbage bins. Yes it’s garbage, but can’t it look pleasantly organized on the outside?

A couple of months ago, I got home from work just before a big wind storm hit our little cul-de-sac. Most everyone on my street gets home before me and I just finished getting Baby Bird in to the house and picking up our garbage/recycling cans and storing them in the garage before the wind picked up.

For those couple of people who were late getting home or didn’t pick up their bins yet, I watched as they rolled down the cul-de-sac and in to other yards.

This is how things go missing people! They are innocently blown in to another’s yard and at the end of the day when you pull in to your drive way and see a recycling bin lying there, you think it’s yours. Then a few months later you ask yourself, where did this extra bin come from?

I received the Garbage Bin Labels to review about a month ago now. They have been outside in all kinds of weather from sun to rain and still look like the day I put them on. The labels are made on a strong sticker and they are further laminated to prevent fading, smudging and premature peeling. They are also a good size so the number can’t be missed.

I’m now proud to report that our garbage/recycling bins won’t end up in someone else’s garage by accident, and if they do at least the number will be ‘nicely’ marked on them to help with their quick return.

I understand that all of my readers may not be as excited about the garbage bin labels as I am, so Label Daddy is giving away a great prize that will let you make up your own mind.
