Making my own labels is not an option.  Who makes labels besides Ross Rounds and Mann Lake?  Thanks.

I know of a few companies that make labels but, I always print mine on labels from office depot.  Here are the direct sites to labels for honey jars.

These may not be the kind of labels you're looking for but, maybe they can be of some help.

Lots of places have labels and most are around the same price.  I like the sytyles at Betterbee  --- http://www.betterbee.com

and  Draper Bee Supply.

Before I had a computer I made my own labels using a hand held rubber stamp. The type you put little rubber letters in slots to make your message( a bit like childrens toy printing sets) and sticky labels bought at the stationary counter in stores.  I do not know whether you have such stamps in America.  Not very stylish but better than hand written.

listen to others. You do not always know as much as you think you do.
