What does everyone use to label samples or testers? I use 15 ml dropper (eye dropper) bottles from Amazon and reuse them. I use sharpie, but it wears off and leaves me having to guess the recipe via knuckle test lol
I can’t find labels small enough, and I thought the labels hard to peel off every time.
There was a long thread about it earlier this week.
Found it.
Given they’re not going to stay around long…
I’ve found that a simple scrap of paper and a rubber band works well/long enough to do the job.
+1 …
Sometimes, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

I was honestly thinking that, but my steep draw is tight. I actually just bought some plain white labels. The 15 ml’s are so small. Thanks for the idea. I might do this and keep the labels for my bigger bottles.
YESS! I had also thought of that. I appreciate the visual!
The one time I didn’t search…lol
I have so many open tabs for ELR forum…I’m constantly searching on here. I honestly thought it was a dull subject. I almost didn’t post it.
Oh, and just so you know, NOTHING is too boring for us. We’re EXPERTS in boring !!
Lol well, clearly I’m boring as well, this is my go to with my morning coffee I’ve learned a ton!
I get these off Amazon, they peel off quite easily so I do put a little piece of scotch tape that will run from one edge of the label to the other edge. Or if you are using a sharpie to write on the bottle, maybe you could put a small piece of scotch tape over the writing to keep it from fading off? I would think that would work. That’s what I do when I date my batteries with a sharpie.
Might be hard to see the tape in the picture.
On Amazon (it won’t let me link for some dumb reason ) just a search for Avery Label 5422 pulls them up.
I’ve used painters tape, clear tape, labels markers…They have all frustrated the crap out of me in one way or another. Now I just use Brother PTH110 handheld printer. About 30.00 on Amazon but can be had much cheaper on sale. Think I paid 15.00 after a coupon was posted on Slick Deals.
Works great, sticks very well on glass and plastic and removes easily without residue. Couldn’t be happier.
Sure thing!
right now im using BMP21 PLUS Portable Label Printer. that i got from amazon for doing electrical stuff at work.
.
but thinking of getting another label printer . playing around with the design software for it right now. its been on my Christmas wish list for awhile
i miss my zinc happy printer
I have a real problem when the printer labels cut off the edges of the printed area. Really bothers me. I think I need therapy…
I do a little piece of scotch tape and sharpy. The tape is so cheap lol.
