Title: Plant labels
Post by: cardinalflower on January 21, 2006, 00:24:04
..... i made loads of fab labels cutting up empty milk bottles. Either the white or clear plastic ones will do. Cut into strips then cut the end into a V to insert into plant pots. Label with permanent black marker pen and the writing won't fade!

;D

Permanant pen can wash off and fade.  What you need if you can get it is a freezer marker.  They withstand anything.  I know, I labelled some tupperware and it wont budge now  >:(  Still use milk bottle bit though.

Good ideas, but do you mind if I point out that this thread already exists lower down the board.
