Do not deface private property!
It would be illegal to buy sticker paper online- that can be used in any household printer (kind of like this)- and make a hi-res version of this image (kind of like this one I made) and print out as many stickers as you have ink and put them up in public areas where people might actually see them! Don't do it!
And especially don't use a version (like this one) that is easier on your printer ink!
Just use those hello my name is stickers and call your new social club the "Hello My Name Is Club". You know, it's for people to meet new people and make friends..... while food happens to be around. But really the main focus is to make new friends of course.
These stickers, very cheap... https://www.amazon.com/Avery-Border-Badge-Labels-Inches/dp/B00281UYIW

My girlfriend and I are huge fans, so I decided to surprise her with this. Along with this, many of the presents I got her were Lost-related. She loved it all!
In case anyone is interested, there are [dharma food labels] (http://maxpictures.com/weblog/2007/04/10/lost-labels-for-your-dharma-initiative-needs/) you can download. I printed them on this [label paper.] (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005ZXCWFI?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00)
Of course, the Milk chocolate bars were regular Hershey bars.
The cheese crackers were a box of Cheez-its
The beer six pack was a combo of 'Blue Moons' and 'Not Your Father's Rootbeer.'
Oh, and the cookies in the second pic were just snickerdoodles I baked (unrelated to Lost).
This is a great idea!
To make it even easier:
1 inch Felt Pads
I inch printable labels
1 inch wooden disks
No cutting required.
I do the same thing with wood tokens.

Doing a job for <Major Department Store in every Mall> we used something like these: https://www.amazon.com/Mr-Label-Self-Laminating-Around-Cable-Labels/dp/B078XR72Y7
They are designed to use with a printer, but you can do marker. They're about 4"x2" with a white bit in the middle. They wrap around for custom fit and cover the written part of the label with the clear portion of the label.
So, conclusions, -0.5 for wanting to use a full-size printer, +1 for adhesion, +1 for protecting label surface.
I ordered these stickers and these chits
If you are just doing this split, go with USPS flat-rate.
Also, DO NOT trust the self-adhesive, use tape to ensure a good seal.
If you are planning on truly getting in on the box split game.
This is what I have:

Started using these, I like them and they work just fine with my Epson printer.

I typically use these.

something like this might work https://www.amazon.com/Avery-Print-Glossy-Square-22853/dp/B01M8OLVEV?_encoding=UTF8&amp;pd_rd_i=B01M8OLVEV&amp;pd_rd_r=97VZ9FEQ6ZP3P841QATV&amp;pd_rd_w=4UceF&amp;pd_rd_wg=8YItB&amp;psc=1
I use this Brother Laser Printer (wifi enabled) and use half sheet adhesive labels. I thought the dedicated label printers were too expensive and this allows me to print packing slips as well.
Back in the day, I used a cable label printer. It was invaluable when labeling 500+ patch cables at a time. You could program it, and have it auto increment, etc.. etc..
For home use, you probably won't want to spend the cash on a dedicated printer. You could get some labels like these, and print sideways on them. Repeat the text over and over down the label, cut it in half, and wrap one half around each end of the cable. Basically, the home gamer version of these.
Your house.

I'd combine this approach with /u/Captainjbao card holder in maybe an index card box or a tin of some sort to put multiple holders within. You could organize the cards within each holder and put a QR code on the holder describing the set. Or even print a proper label either in the center of it or in that top left corner. This would allow you to store potentially dozens if not a hundreds of cards in a single box.
Here is a link for the sticker sheets. They are 8.5 x11” and can probably go into most printers.

If you're so inclined, grab yourself a sheet of mailing labels. You can use MS word's labelling function to create a full sheet of labels that read:
Addressee has movedPlease forward to:[Put their new address here]When a piece of their mail shows up, slap a label on it, put it back in the mailbox and lift the flag. Or you can just write it out on the envelope, but if you get a lot of this stuff, the labels become more convenient.
The mail will get forwarded to them at their new address, and the Post office will also get the hint after a few of these to start automatically forwarding their mail.
I just use half-sheet labels in a standard printer. Avery 5126 labels are the most common to use, but I found a cheaper version that works great (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0069RY9BY/ or just search for "Avery 5126"). I just tear the sheet in half, print my label, and then just trim close to the lines to make them fit perfectly. I'd love to hear a better solution for printing labels, if anyone has one.
Honestly, I'd just try and make your own. The basic version of the Silhouette software is free to download, and there are tutorials on Youtube for how to make your own checkboxes.
Buy some sticker paper from Amazon and then you can print them yourself. You can shop around and read some reviews, but here is a pack of 100 glossy sheets for $10.
It'll be somewhat of an investment up front, but that works out to only 10 cents per sheet. Even if you go to FedEx like I do and pay 65 cents per page for printing, that's still only 75 cents for a full 8.5 by 11 sheet. Most Etsy sheets I've seen are like half that size and 5 times as expensive.
First time i found your site i bought these, i had allot of fun. works best with plastic backed, stick tabs straight to diaper tape
You can get these 30-up labels from walmart for like $5. Don't just tape them on. Cover any barcodes already on the book with your labels.
https://www.amazon.com/Avery-Address-Labels-Inches-18160/dp/B001SN8ITI
How big are we talking?
Here are some that are half sheet-sized: http://www.amazon.com/Adhesive-Shipping-Lablels-Printers-BL-G8511-100/dp/B001PF1BSE/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1452869258&amp;sr=8-3&amp;keywords=half+sheet+labels
And full sheet: http://www.amazon.com/Avery-Full-Sheet-Labels-Inkjet-Printers/dp/B000093L1J/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1452869321&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=whole+sheet+label
Sometimes I re-use shipping boxes and I cover the previous labels and any bar codes or words on the box to avoid confusion at the post office. (And they bitch if I don't). I may have used 2 or 3 half-sheet adhesive labels, which made the weight go up by 0.2 oz. That was just an example of the post office being picky.
Blank Poker Chips from discountpokershop.com, and labels from https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00Q5AVO04/ fit the blank chips perfectly!
Okay, sorry for the delay. Here is the simple way to do it. Please read the instructions first, there are some things that need to be downloaded first.
Instructions
Paper
I recently printed 240 munzees for myself. I used three pages of the paper ($1.50), printed at OfficeMax ($.45), then cut. So for about $2.00, I got 240 munzees, laser printed on weatherproof sheets for less than a penny each.
Notes: When you are ready to print, save your designs as a PDF. Look at it before printing, making sure you dont waste anything. I usually print mine around .75" which give me 80 per page.
If you have more questions, PM me.
Ditto. I use a glue stick whenever I label a beer that I’m not intending to end up in an ice chest. It stays on well enough, and is easy and cheap.
If I do want to put it in an ice chest, I found a pretty decent set of print stickers on amazon that are water resistant. It’s a bit of a bitch, getting the images to line up with the stickers, but it’s an option. Edit: print stickers link - although now I’m seeing some other good looking options. It’s been a while since I’ve done this.
you can get those name badge sticker sheets and design a label on it.
https://www.amazon.com/Printable-Sticker-Paper-Sheets-Blank/dp/B01DJBMLV2
I used a laser and made some for myself

I don't know about a kiosk but you can order blank vinyl sticker paper for use with laser printers on-line. They are pretty durable but if you have access to a laminator you can run the sheet through that after printing.
https://www.amazon.com/Label-Outfitters-Weatherproof-Waterproof-Permanent/dp/B004QNWABE
I laser print labels, and I really like these shipping labels. Similar to yours, but pre-cut in half.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B015PXX7AG
Also, you can get free shipping labels from UPS.
Any place that sell office supplies usually has some
I just buy these half sheets stickers and print it from regular printer.
It comes out to less than 4 cents per sticker. It works great and I didn't have to buy a label printer just for printing labels / have it clustering my desk
AmazonBasics Easy Cover Address Labels for laser/Inkjet Printers, White, 8.5'' x 5.5'', 200 Labels
$0.04495 per label ($8.99 shipped with Prime). Perfect coverage. Very good adhesive. I’ve used them with my laser printer and have had no issues. No additional tape necessary unless you use an inkjet.
Please do! Feel free to add a url- I don't have one specifically, but I'd prefer if it wasn't explicitly liberal🤷
Thank you so much for asking!
This is the paper I use. You can get it cheaper from the companies website.
The adhesive is good, and it is hard to peel off in one piece.
Also, you could it the sheet with a clear coat spray paint to UV proof it and water proof it
Sorry I didn't give details. Laser printer with two labels per 8.5x11 sheet, like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001PF1BSE/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_EIVJxbJFK4YFF
Laserjet over ink jet is preferred. HP has a line of printers that work over wi-fi. Look for Wi-Fi direct HP printers. Possibly buy used on eBay with a return policy. Others may work, but I’ve seen HP invest the most in this tech.
Also, I recommend using half sheet labels from Amazon. PM me and I can send you some extras I have (I switched to a thermal printer now that I’ve reached a nice scale). They save you time from cutting and using tape to attach labels.
If you reach scale (for me 1000+ orders), find a thermal printer (like Dymo 4xl) and probably buy a laptop.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00281UYIW
That is the most basic way to do it, but I've learned that paying for paying for shipping online is probably the most efficient way to do it. Plus they usually give a discounted rate for paying online. All you need is a printer and a postal scale (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00SMHWZ42/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_JuB3wb2YR63SY). You can even get shipping labels (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001PF1BSE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_2uB3wbG6X4SXA) if you wanted to take your packaging a step higher. (Totally worth it imo)
Go to stamps.com or usps.com. Enter your package weight and dimensions. Purchase and print the label. Stick the label on the package and drop it off at a post office. Writing the address on the package isn't hard but I was taking at least a minute or more for each package and now and can get way more packages done in way less time. And don't have to wait in line at the post office anymore.

I've been using these from Best Print on Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0069RY9BY/
They feed nicely through my laser printer, and the stickiness of the labels is better than others I've used.
Thanks for the reply! So maybe something like this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sheets-Quality-Adhesive-Sticky-Printing/dp/B01N9PYOB6 I should have thought to look for self adhesive paper!
For boxes < 1 pound, definitely ship first class. You can use PayPal for shipping labels - http://www.paypal.com/shipnow is a easier user interface if you're just shipping one package, but check out http://www.paypal.com/shipping for PayPal's multi-order shipping (it's less straightforward to use, but meant for lots of shipments). If you don't have them already, I'd highly recommend getting some sticker labels to print on due to the quantities you're sending out - I picked up these on Amazon awhile ago, but there are lots of different sellers.
I don't see a problem with the mylar bags. When I've shipped yarn in mylar bags, I've put it inside of a ziploc for extra insurance, but I've received lots of yarn and fiber in mylar bags and have never had an issue with them being torn up. If you're sending anything internationally, you might want to beef up the packaging a bit (double bag?).
What cables are you missing?
As for labels, I use http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005GP8U92
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001PF1BSE/ref=ox_ya_os_product_refresh_T1
200 for $7.95 with free prime shipping.
Ok, sounds reasonable. Would it be fine for me to just use a thermal dymo 450 printer for product labels for now and just an inkjet with self-adhesive sheets (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001PF1BSE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1), for the shipping labels?
I use these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0069RY9BY/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_4?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1&amp;smid=A3DDEVBY0MMX5J
I bought a 100 pack of sticker paper that are the size of regular paper sheets off amazon for $12. I printed on them 5 star reviews help deliver food to your family and ours with IC logo and a picture of 5 stars. It looks nice. I fit 6 on a sheet and slap one on the outside of the bag with the delicate items in it.
I called IC and asked if it was ok to do and the lady said I don't see why not.
2 weeks later all of a sudden the in store oppers at wegman's have new stickers and they have to put them om 1 bag per order that are very simliar to mine.
I definitely noticed a little difference and get more ratings. 600 stickers for $12, well worth it.
People sell preprinted stickers on etsy too, but my way was cheaper and my stickers are bigger and more noticeable.
In case anyone wants the sticker paper....
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B06WVYGWMD?psc=1&amp;ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title
I still use a regular printer. Thermal printers are nice, but I didn't have 200 bucks to spend on a printer.
Invest in some label paper. It'll save tape and time. Here's what I use
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001PF1BSE/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1
Buy bulk peel-and stick labels. I like the half-sheet ones... Fba splits their labels in 2 and usps on eBay lets you print a half-sheet.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001PF1BSE/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1404349532&amp;sr=8-1&amp;pi=SY200_QL40
I am partial to this one. I also just ordered some of these, but haven't tried them out yet.
For the "character sheets" (I call them the faction mats), I used black cardboard (200 or 250gsm) with self-adhesive paper.
I might change these more often so I didn't want to use something thicker, and, in fact, I thought that I could build the thickness as I glue more and more paper to it until I've got a version that looks more final (and then I'll transition to thicker cardboard).
For the cards, I used the same black cardboard with the self-adhesive paper. This time, though I wrapped the cardboard with the adhesive paper so that I'd get front and back.
I then sprayed them with a clear lacquer to preserve the ink.
In the beginning they stick a little bit, but after some use, they feel a bit more like playing cards.
I want to use linen paper + spray glue + cardboard for my next version of the prototype as I hear those make them feel exactly like playing cards.
As for the rounded corners (on both the cards and the faction mats), it's just a rounded corner cutter.
It's not brilliant, and for thicker items you might have to have some hand strength, but it's cheap and it gets the job done.
I like to write people nice notes with this 8.5x11 sticky paper. Just to make sure they see them, I stick them on the driver side window. Sometimes I leave multiple notes - just to make sure my message gets across.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DJBMLV2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1
these work beautifully
A cheap laser printer and half sheet labels will cost about the same as a thermal printer. Printer toner is cheap and lasts a while. Cheaper if you buy aftermarket toner or figure out how to refill toner.
Quick google search for fba thermal labels shows this result: https://www.amazon.com/Thermal-Label-Printer-Roll-Compatible/dp/B005GP8U92
Inventory lab has batch printing which prints labels automatically. If you don't have a third party listing program then you have to open the label PDF in the completed shipment and print each label individually.
product labels? https://www.amazon.com/Avery-Address-Labels-Inches-18160/dp/B001SN8ITI
Shipping labes? Free half label sheets you can get with a free UPS account. Or you can buy them cheaply on Amazon/eBay in bulk.
Here are the ones I purchased (sorry for messy link - on mobile).

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01N9PYOB6/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_q3T7H1tOrf8Q9
Also not sure where in the world it's available but I use the HP smart ink service. For £1.99 per month I can print 50 pages no matter how much ink is used. The printer detects when its going to run out of ink and HP send you more ink before you run out. All for 1.99 a month!
I use canva.com to make stuff like the labels. Theres a lot of free resources you can find on there if you look :)
I haven't been able to find the exact ones I used in that video since I ran out, but the Amazon listing was replaced with these which I have used and they work fine.
Buy plain pint glasses at any store. Get clear Avery sitckers. Print your design, stick them to the glass.

Need to label some cables and am looking for something like this (self-laminating wrap around label), but cannot find anything similar sold online in Japan. Closest I could find was this. Figured I'd just take it apart and write on them manually. Anyone got any tips?
This is what I bought
Half Sheet Self Adhesive Shipping Labels for Laser & Inkjet Printers, 200 Count (BL-G8511-100) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001PF1BSE?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf
Don't listen to them. Yes, Zebras are nice, but you can use Inkjets just fine with these labels.
They have two labels per sheet. A little on the large side of things, but if you're shipping with something wider than a DVD case, you're golden.
The costs are very minimal if you use Amazon Prime - I paid something like $30 USD for 1000 labels (500 sheets, 2 labels each). They work fantastic. I usually use 1 sheet per order, with the 2nd label including the packing manifest. No tape is needed.
Whatever you do, use these labels or some other adhesive-based label. You will cut about 50% of your shipping time by avoiding the usage of tape and cutting the label out.
YMMV, but these have been the difference between agonizing over packing and shipping, and being able to process dozens of orders per hour for my business.
Ah ha - I thought it might be cheaper to just buy round stickers, but it doesn't look like it, at first glance!
After this gets delivered (or maybe before), I would go ahead and terminate the office side of the cables you need to connect. That way you can connect the tone generator side to the cable then go find the other end in the bundle. Be aware that sometimes the tone receiver (the part with the metal tip) needs to almost be in contact with the wire in order to receive the signal depending on how long the run is and how cheaply made the tone generator is.
Also these ( https://www.amazon.com/Mr-Label-Self-Laminating-Around-Cable-Labels/dp/B078XR72Y7 ) or these ( https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01K6MJWLE ) should help to fix the problem for the future. Or just a regular label maker and some clear tape would work as well.
Yep! Pieces are XPS and painted with mini/acrylic paint (My first time using XPS, but I think I managed). The cards are actually regular, old Bicycle playing cards. I modeled up the card face in GIMP and printed them onto sticker paper, cutting out the stickers, sticking them on and trimming the edges.
I do this but use circle sticker paper so I don't even have to cut anything or show any signs of artistic skill.
Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/1-inch-Diameter-Labels-Inkjet-Printers/dp/B01DE56YXO/ref=sr_1_fkmr2_2?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1504720857&amp;sr=8-2-fkmr2&amp;keywords=printing+1%22+circle+stickers+avery
Amazon will label products for a fee, but they do so by scanning the existing product barcodes and matching that up to your inventory. Most products have one printed on the packaging.
There are a couple of size options for the printer label templates that Amazon provides. Simplest way is to see for yourself. Create a quick shipment, the labelling page is the third stage I believe. You can see at the bottom of the page the different sizes. These are all for standard A4 printers.
Something like this is the paper you need.
Not my product nor any client of mine. I don't sell on Amazon myself, I work for a company that sells support in selling on Amazon. I don't endorse the seller for the quality of the product or service, they're just the first that came up for me searching. In fact, the listing's a bit crap, clearly breaking multiple rules. Not important. It serves as a good example of the sort of paper you need. You need to match the paper to the template you want to use, so it all lines up properly.
Thank you!
The labels are great, here’s where you can get them:

Regarding paper to use, it depends on what you want to do. I've seen people simply make the entire thing from basic computer paper and sleeve cards when necessary.
I personally printed on this, then stuck them to pieces of cardboard to add more weight. Pieces now resemble the One Night Ultimate Werewolf role pieces.
