I finally tried printing on fabric and I am loving it! This label is from my new for 2024 set #119. Be sure to do your research before feeding fabric into your printer. I used the freezer paper method and it worked well for me. If I had an inexpensive extra printer laying around I would use that for sure. I centered the image on a letter size page leaving more room on top so I could make a bag fold that I thought looked authentic. After printing I dusted off my ole sewing machine and got busy. I boxed off the sack corners and filled with a baggie of a 1/2 cup of pantry-dead lentils for weight before stuffing with fibrefill. The sack is about 6.5"x8.5" and almost 3" deep. I printed the label at actual size. It's a really easy sewing project and I am really happy with how it turned out. I think Mrs. Claus would approve....
I love look of the 1920's - 1930's paper mache style pumpkins but the real antique ones are not in my budget. I have 'upped my orange' in my Halloween labels this fall with this set. I used genuine art from the 1900's; the labels have a bit of a modern touch but still have that antique vibe. For kitchen decor just use an empty tin can. I wrapped mine with some leftover wallpaper but kraft paper would work well too. If you're super crafty you could rust a tin can and use that. My leftover beige owl paper was calling me. This Broom Balm label fits an antique medicine jar perfectly. Keeping an eye on it is my paternal great grandmother's sister and her husband. No photo is safe from a little photo edit at our house. Labels are available in my shop (link in post). ...
My witch's larder was looking a bit thin so it was time to stock up on some canned goods. Thanks so much to Jen @ThisHolidayHouse for the great idea. These labels are from the two new sets in my shop. They are sized to fit two different heights (3.5" and 4") but I discovered that there are many, many different can circumferences, so you have to fiddle a bit to find the right one. I added as much wiggle room as I could and still be able to print borderless on and 8.5x11 sheet of paper. They add a fun new look to your apothecary. ...
