Getting ready for a New Years Party or having friends over to watch the bowl games? Even with as much as I love organization - when I see new organizing goodies I always ask myself how can I find more than one use for ANYTHING I buy. These Martha Stewart lables are a great example of that...I thought the label was a great idea since they are waterproof and can be used indoor and out - already a good start. The packaging shows them being used to label plant pots...OK one idea but that's when the item needs to be put to the test and see what else can be done with it...The red pull portion is slighly elastic which allows it to be pulled onto the pots or anything else really up to a couple of inches...lots of possibilities which I decided included using them as drink tags...I love these since they can be used on more than just wine glasses...fit onto cans, water bottles, beer bottles, etc. You get the idea AND since they are waterproof it doesn't matter if the can/bottle sweats - tag is good to go. Tag is big enough to decorate with sharpie pens to suit. Kids can do their own :) I like these tags too as a gift tag - especially if giving homemade james/jellies, "gifts in a jar" since the wrap around the glass so easily. Obviously uses around the house, attic, garage and OUTSIDE TOO are endless. Challenge yourself to think about how to find more than one use for things!
