Default Will trade wine for you to make labels for me

I have only a black laser printer. I am not efficient in clip art, have no idea how, nor do I have the patience to fool around with labels. So I will trade wine in exchange for making me a generic label. I would add the kind, ABV and other information with felt tip marker. I do have neat handwriting.

Anyone interested that has some extra time? If so message me.

do you have a winery or family name you want on your bottles?
I can put something together for you and email it to you as an attachment. I would love to try some of your wines but would feel guilty reviving it for labels. I can send you a PDF that you can take to staples or office depot and make color copies if you like. I may even be able to come up with something that looks good in black and white.

Duster we like it. Most of my wine is shipped to MI to our families and they don't care about labels. Masking tape works fine for them. LOL So I would just print them here as I need them. And probably the only time I would use labels is for trades here. It is just the 2 of us and I have a LOT of wine going that I would like to trade this fall. We are not big drinkers, one glass each at night If you could size it for different size bottles, I can save the photo and print from my computer. I read here about using milk to attached the labels and that is what I will do.

I would suggest getting a spray can of clear Kraylon, print and cut out the labels, then give them a quick coat of the clear spray.
Once dry I would affix them to the bottles with glue sticks. You can pick them up pretty cheap when school starts.

We love it too. I would have never been able to do it in a million years. And, not really interested in learning. Thank you Duster! I like Cindy's too. She has done some awesome labels for herself.
