Camp Survival With Mabel’s Labels

June 30, 2010

The official start to summer was last week, and many children will be heading off to camp.  Once my son started school, I started labeling all of his clothes and shoes. I don’t expect that a 3 year old will be able to keep up with his stuff, but I don’t want to invest in new clothes, shoes, etc. should he lose them.

Mabel’s Labels is once again offering their Camp Pack, perfect for ensuring that everything you pack comes home with your child.  Each pack includes 15 Sticky Labels, 8 Shoe Labels, 2 Bag Tags, and 40 Iron-Ons or 50 Tag Mates. I’ve actually used most of the company’s products and I am most impressed with how long the labels stay on.

For more camp-related information including info and tips, check out their free e-book entitled Mama of Many’s Guide to Camp.  You can also keep up with the company on their Facebook page.

No compensation was received for this post. I am a Mabel’s Labels Buzzmama and periodically receive information and products.

Holiday Gift Guide 2009: Mabel’s Labels *Giveaway*

November 30, 2009

This giveaway is now closed. Thanks for stopping by! Congrats to Amber V!

Yesterday we spent the day at the park with another couple and their kids, playing, catching up, and taking pictures of each other.  Some years we have professional pictures taken (and we may still do that this year) but because it’s almost December, we figured that time is definitely getting short.  We NEED to get our Christmas cards ordered and sent out (which is what we did today).  And tomorrow is Cyber Monday and since I did not brave Black Friday, I need to do some major Christmas shopping (and by the way, if you have some great deals or tips, please feel free to leave me a comment!).  At least I have one thing covered…Holiday Gift Tags.

There are some companies you will probably see repeatedly on my blog.  Mabel’s Labels is one of them.  My son’s shoes, clothes, and sippy cups are all labeled with labels from the company.  You’ll also find Mabel’s Labels on our spice racks, canisters, and storage bins.  And this year, we’re labeling our gifts with the company’s new Holiday Gift Tags (which are super cute!).

If you want to order a set of their Holiday Gift Tags (which can be personalized), you’ll have to do it soon.  After December 31st you won’t find them anymore.  You can choose from four designs (Winter Wonderland is my favorite) and a set of 24 retails for $18.50.  The only thing I’d love to see the company offer is the opportunity to choose more than one design in a set.  What I do like is the opportunity to have several different messages printed in one set.  The Holiday Gift Tags are sized generously and printed on quality paper.

For every order of holiday products, the company will make a donation to a local family in need of support this holiday season.  And…since tomorrow is Cyber Monday I thought I’d share with you an incredible deal you don’t want to miss out on.  By the way, you’re getting this information before it even hits the company newsletter (do I hear oo’s and aah’s?).

Tomorrow look for these outstanding Cyber Monday deals:

30% off Holiday Gift Tags and Return Address Labels

Regular Price: $18.50, sale price $12.95

40% off Selected Write-On! Stationery, in choice of Bzzz or Cowpoke designs
