I googled both images, but only used the half of the marigold image. I thought it looked a lot more.... artsy-fartsy!!! LOL
I also put on the labels to my beet wine, and now they are ready to go. I put shrink caps on all of my wines (except the marigold, since I just bottled them and they still have to sit upright)last night too. It really doesn't take long once you get the hang of it.
I used gold shrink caps for the cab franc, and green for the beet wine. I will take some pictures of the bottles when I'm back home (watching my parents' cats tonight while they're living it up in Europe).
I have run out of compliments for all of the beautiful labels I have seen. Please, everyone that has created one of the outstanding labels, enter them in the Wine Maker Contest. If, excuse me, when you wine, I will devote a web page to label winners to go along with the wine competition winners. I may also come up with some store credits!
OK, question. I do not have any label paper, yet. But I was just messsing around and came up with a sample label. My question is what should the dimensions be for the label paper??
The gummed label paper I sell is standard paper size (8-1/2 by 11). As with everything else related to home wine making, you can make the label whatever size you want. The labels I provide for free with the wine ingredients kits are 12 to a page, roughly 2.6" x 2.75". Somepeople do like them bigger. My advice is to make them whatever size pleases you and does not waste too much paper.
