Wine/Beer bottle labels

[Gassman]

Sorry if this is the wrong place but couldnt see where to drop it

Is there a template that everyone uses for these

I have the labelizer site and various wine label sites but its the actual printing paper I am looking for.

Sticky back paper, do you already have the labels marked out/perforated if you know what I mean and what programme do you use to print on them or is it a case of print and cut them out yourselves

Sorry if this is a bit vague bit its the ramblings from my early morning head :thumb:

In the past I've just used normal printer paper and cut out the labels with a craft knife and stuck them on with pritt stick. That way the labels come off easily when washing the bottles. I've also heard milk is a good way to stick the labels on.

Thanks for the reply

I have just read lots of pages and looks like the way to go is just buy the 200 white labels from "The Works" and just write on them

If you're not worried about aesthetics, and it's just for an indication of what's inside I just use a silver pen or marker and put the brew number on the cap. It saves many more hours scrubbing labels off bottles.

I got labels from staples, using Microsoft word and the avery template available to download free.

Prit stick and normal printer paper works for me. swirl of prit stick in each corner, stays on untill you want it off. I found that sticky labels can be too sticky and leave a mark.

Sorry - I know this is an old post, but new on here, so please don't moan...

Thought I would add what I do...

I use Ms Word and plain paper. I get pictures from Google, and try to find pictures related to the wine - grapes, oranges etc. I can get four labels onto an A4 sheet of paper. I then cut them out and stick them on with...milk!

I use a pastry brush and lightly moisten the labels. It doesn't smell like you thought it would and to get them off is easy under a hot running tap
