Labels have been a freaking nightmare

[slacker361]

Trying to design labels, and have had some success. except for the printing.... one time the print lines up next it jumps, for no reason.... this is a serious pain in the rectum

I use the print your own preprinted labels from Brushy.   Wife does the set up and all the printing.  I have never had a problem with them.

I'll 2nd Amys.   After years of avery I'd had enough.  They were a pain but did look good until they got wet.   Amys come in water proof peel and stick full sheets. She customized them for me for a initial setup fee.

Danno, could you post a copy of your label?  Are you including all the new verbage from the michigan cottage food law?  "processed in a facility not inspected by the michigan department of agriculture and rural development".  Or do you have an inspected facility?

from what I find the cottage food law now oversees honey and maple syrup and has realy screwed up the ease of making a label.

thanks

Can someone that uses Amyslabels post a pic of what they got? All I ever found was a simple label with one lone honeybee buzzing around.

I have a lic honey house so dont need the special labeling.   What I did for my label was take a photo of the Ludington Light house from about halfway down the breakwall.  If you have ever been here you know that the lighthouse is a icon of this tourist trap.  I named my company Ludington Honey Company and across the sky over the lighthouse I had Amy write Pure Ludington Honey.

I've got her brochure as well as the 2 types of labels I use.  One is for all of the standard honey and pollen in various weights and sizes.  The other is a "boutique" label that I sell my chunk with in a nice hex jar.  All custom, but I can't upload them to photobucket and I can't figure out how to load them here (jpg's).  Amy is great to deal with.  I make sure to hit her during the winter when things are slow and I'm in no hurry. 

Drop me a PM and I'll sent them over.

I had the same problem trying to post my labels.  I get 3 sizes from Amy.  First is a small 12oz for bears.   2nd is a large 1# for invert bottles and the 3rd is  round with no weight printed on it.  I use them for 3#s, 5#s, Buckets and cut combs.  I just write in the correct weight.  If anyone would like to see them message me your email address.
