Perfect Vintage Aesthetic Labels

LOVE this item! I'm an organizer freak, so of course I'm a label freak, but most of the labels I find in the store either look too clinical or Pinterest is mommy for my style. The vintage look of these labels is absolutely perfect. I've used it to label some of my skincare oils when I repackaged them into their respective bottles and plan to use it again when I bottle all my lotions etc in jars. (FYI, these photos show Vivaplex bottles, 12, clear, 2 ounce glass bottles, with glass pipettes). One thing to note, the decal doesn't stick well to the glass, I just put a dab of super glue on it at the end. on the ends, but that might just be because I've used it on oil bottles and the residue might have prevented it from sticking. Superglue fixed everything and it was very easy. I stuck some of the labels I practiced with on both the paper and the plastic binding and they both stick perfectly. A few tips: Press each letter fully and firmly so they are fully pressed into the sticker, otherwise you're done. with a half-formed letter like the "N" in the second drawing. TBH, one or two of them add to the charm of a vintage look for me, but be warned. You create a room with the underscore button and that creates a nice big room. I made the mistake of using double spacing on the first try, thinking one spacing would be tight, but you definitely don't want two. Before shortening it, add a space at the end of your last word. You can trim the end if the spacing is too much, but if you don't, the tape will tear right at the edge of the last letter and you'll end up with uneven spacing between the front and back of your label. I chose the Dynamo Xpress based on the size and font of the decal - be sure to get this one if you want it to have a more vintage/typewriter look. Overall it's fine and perfect for aesthetic organization.

Pros
  • Ergonomic design for ease of use and modern look. Intuitive turn-and-click marking system.
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
