Make your own Plant labels.

Make your own seed labels

Do you find that the white plastic labels you can buy just fade, get filthy or the pen/pencil rubs off?

And it's plastic, you're buying more plastic!

A solution for you....

Make your own

First find a plastic bottle made from that opaque plastic, in the UK it's often used for milk bottles. Then cut it into label sized strips - whatever shape or length you prefer.

Then get a biro, it doesn't matter if it doesn't work!

As you need labels write the label using the biro - press really really hard so you press right into the plastic, you could make the indentations go whiter than the rest of the plastic.

If you want to you can then go over this with a permanent marker, but whatever you do now the writing will stay put - dented into the plastic of the label.

You could keep the used labels for next year or recycle the plastic and make new ones, it's up to you!
