i love you for this awesome info karyn! it’s been months since i started searching for an affordable way to make fabric labels.. “crafting a green world” lead me here (http://craftingagreenworld.com/2009/01/23/5-ways-to-make-your-own-fabric-labels/)..the iron-on transfer might work for me since i’ve a good ink-jet printer but the material demand in my country is so low that they stopped production and distribution altogether..ordering overseas costs a bomb and i really hate to waste during this world economy crisis..i googled and found other methods but most of the materials aren’t available where i am..so, i’d you to know that i truly appreciate your idea ^_^ it’s creative people like you that makes the world shine 10 shades brighter!

Nice…almost makes me wish I hadn’t got rid of my typewriter. But I do have a font that looks like type! I love that fabric! Is it new? vintage?

What a fun idea! My typewriter ribbon has dried up. I’m inspired to replace the ribbon so I can try my hand at this. Thanks for sharing…

[...] out the old Smith-Corona to type out some fabric labels, as per the instructions that I discovered here at Make Something. I now can repeatedly type the word Razblint at 80 wpm, with only the occasional X or G squirting [...]

This is a perfect idea, I am in the process of making my own wedding invites. I have got old style photobooth strip pictures of us on the side, hand embossed date and location on the front, wax monogram stamps, inside I am using old luggage tags in patterned paper pockets for RSVP’s and I would like to print the actual ‘invite’ onto fabric and tie to the inside of the card using ribbon.

Now…to hand type 300 invites….fun fun fun

Jess – I iron both sides. Usually the reverse side first and then the side with the type on it. Have fun!

Cool idea! Got to this site while I was searching for how to make fabric lables. I have a question, which side to iron on? Directly onto the typing or onto the reverse side? Hope you can help me out. Thanks!
