I Feel So Sassy

Thanks to the creative powerhouse Ambika (who has her own Etsy store!), I found out about an affordable way to get those woven tags I've been so wanting, you know, for my "clothing line" :-)

My own handmade efforts have seemed very slightly illegitimate for the lack of something to help me distinguish back from front. And now that I appear to be giving away quite a few of my experiments, I feel a label is necessary.

Oh, and it's still another way for me to keep the craft industry in business. So, if you're in the market for woven tags that don't cost a fortune, check out this site...

Anyone who's used Namemaker.com, feel free to let us know of your experience. My tags won't arrive for up to 6 weeks!

    You know I love mine! It'll take me forever to go through the labels I ordered (I just don't sew that fast) but I'm already looking forward to experimenting with different fonts and colors.

    Years ago I bought some of those "Made Especially for you by ...". Have never used them. The only things I ever handmake are crocheted scarves and blankets. And they're a little hard to sew onto yarn. Maybe yours will fare better.

    That's the one I use! But of course I forgot its name even though I receive emails from the company. I hope you like . . .

    What great tags! I wish I could sew so I could put "Made by Sonja" tags in something. :)

    Ambika: I know. I may change my name, my fonts - everything! I mean, I don't have a "brand" like you so it's even easier for me. I think they did beautiful work on the ones you got - and that they suit your work excellently.

    Tessa: Oh, I hope so. :-)

    Sophie: I have heard of them. Bel, one of my fave bloggers, got some made up and sent me the link. I've been meaning to do some for, like, a year and I haven't yet got around to it. But you've renewed my commitment level!

    Miss C: That's a bad sign for their marketing efforts :-)

    Sonja: You know, you could always sew them in over the store bought ones. (Just joking!)
