OOT Bags and Sticker Paper

ChickenOnSunday

How did you all decorate your OOT bags? I'm torn between doing something on sticker paper (from Staples) or printing something and tying it to the bag with raffia ribbon.

Has anyone used sticker paper? Success stories? Horror stories?

I've seen paper tags made and tied to the handles of paper bags using ribbon and a hole punch.

The only sticker paper I've used is for return labels, but it can sometimes be a nightmare getting your design to line up and print nicely on the stickers. I would personally design hang tags & tie them on because it seems like less of a hassle to me than trying to get the design to fit properly in the designated space.

I did reusable grocery bags and just tied a little card to the handles with ribbon.

Thanks for the input.

I think I"ll  just go with a paper tag and tie it to the bag.

I'm loving google. I just found a letter used by someone for their OOT bags. I'm just changing a few of the details and making it my own. No reason to recreate the wheel!

I've been trying to figure out the same thing. I found a website awhile back that you could upload the images for the sticker and they would print them out, but it was a little bit out of budget for us. I know you can also do that on vistaprint as well.

How are things with your dress?

Oh that darn dress. Still don't have it. Kathy at VRB said it was being shipped UPS ground. Her estimate, was 4-5 days. Well, that was Tuesday. I'll wait until Wednesday before I contact her again.

I will NOT cancel on Olga a 3rd time.

They really need to give you some money back for as long as you have waited... I mean that's just ridiculous. ( Please keep me posted!

Is this Victorian Rose Bridal in Raleigh?  They called me today and it got me thinking instead of going to Charlotte to try on dresses I could go to Raleigh.  But that leaves me going dress shopping alone--so not what I want to do!  My friend from out of state is going to come visit me here in Greenville and I was going to go with her.

I know you are having dress problems with the shipping date.  Other than that how were they with just trying on dresses.

Opening Post: I would go with hang tags!
