The Sewing Mom

I want one of these babies so bad! Pictured are 3 of the DYMO Labelmakers and I would love to have any of the 3. There are so many uses for a label maker, it would be a valuable asset in this house.

First of all, my daughter could use a label maker for school. It would have made her life so much easier had she been able to simply print out name labels for all of her school supplies, binders and folders. And, because the state of Texas requires that all school text books have book covers on them, labeling the outside of the covers would make finding the right text book, in a locker crammed full of books, a snap.

As for using a label maker at home, the question is, what can’t you label? Living in Texas, I have to keep all of my pantry foods in airtight containers to keep the bugs out. That means all of my dry goods like pancake mix, flour, sugar and cereals are in sealed containers. It would make my life so much easier if I could just slap a label on the outside of the container so I would always know what’s inside. It would also help my husband out because he never knows what I’ve put into which container.

My husband could also use the label maker for labeling all the DVD’s and CD’s he burns. How about all those boxes stacked on shelves in the closet. Wouldn’t it be nice to have them labeled so you don’t have to take them down just to see what’s in them? What a time saver!

We used to have a label maker, but, since we relocated, we haven’t seen it. I really miss it and need a new one!
