Waterproof, Dishwasher Safe Labels!!

Yes, you read correctly!!  Labels you can WASH!  If you have kids, you know that everything that goes to school or daycare has to have their name on it.  And, if you're like me, that involves breaking out the Sharpie.  Now, as much as I love Sharpies, (yes, I have some weird affinity for multi-colored Sharpie pens...I have a whole collection) they are not always the best choice for labeling my kids' stuff.  So, when I was given the opportunity to review Applied Labels, I jumped on it.  These labels are nice looking, they stand out, and they are washable!!  I was very skeptical that a sticky label could stay on after being washed in the dishwasher, but they did! 

These are labels that have been washed in the dishwasher! 

I've obviously blotted out my little one's name, but the second line says "No Nuts/Eggs" due to his food allergies.  Applied Labels allows you to have 2 lines or 1 line with a choice of cute icons. 

For me, it gives me an extra level of comfort, having Mr. Two's food allergies on each label.  It is a reminder to everyone, especially at snack time when he is exposed to the potential allergens.  The only problem I've had with keeping the labels on is my 2 year old!!  For some reason, he wanted to pick them off everytime he saw them!  Thankfully, you get a lot of labels in a pack, because once they are peeled off, they don't really stick back on.  Now that he's getting used to seeing them on his cups, etc. he's not trying to remove them anymore!  

Not only can you label sippy cups, bottles, snack containers, but also, you can label clothing, bags, books, and even shoes!!  And again, they can all be washed.  To see all the different labels they offer, the different uses, or to order your own personalized labels, visit them at http://www.appliedlabels.com/.  You can also find them on Facebook and Twitter!  In my opinion, they are great for labeling my son's items for preschool because the labels look neat (no bleeding from a marker!), they are easily visible, clearly printed, and durable.  They are also versatile, in that you can easily label lots of different items and don't forget, washable!
