Thank you.They look fantastic. Great job.

So even if & when I do switch to NoonTime labels, there is still the effort of the one-time removal of labels from wine I have purchased in order to re-use the Bottles. Methods I have previously used involved soaking and washing and peeling, which was such a mess.
Now I am simply scraping the labels off the dry bottles with a sharp knife, and using a powerful hand cleaner to remove the glue residue. This is working well, is more rapid than earlier methods, and not such a mess.
At this point I have a full set of 30 brown bottles for Cabernet Sauvignon, a full set of green bottles for Watermelon Fruit, more than a full set of clear for Moscato or Fruit, and nearly a full set of 30 of the more shapely bottles for Pinot Noir.
Time to start coming up with better ideas for label artwork.

Unfortunately, it's out of stock on Amazon and on the vendor web site -- this has true for a while, so it may no longer be in production.Check out a product called LabelNator, best knife thing to remove labels.

These strike me! Nice work...My first
@vinny I like them a lot. Very classy looking. I prefer the ones with some color, and wouldn't hesitate to slap any of them on my bottles. That said, it sounds like you still have time before bottling, and you must enjoy the creative process, so I'd try even more ideas. When it's no longer fun, stop and use these excellent creations.Labels are hard! I am just messing around with these. I don't have anything bottled, and I think once I do I'll be able to see thing better if I do a test print and get it on the bottle.
Thought I would ask opinions though.
I made the bearclaw logo months ago and these 2 are the original ideas.

I did 30 variations to come up with these and I'm not really any more impressed than I was with the originals.
Whadaya think?
Thanks you. I'm still playing around. I think I just need to print and see how it translates on the bottles to get more direction.@vinny I like them a lot.
I agree. I found anything I did looked like it was just added in. I tried corners, half the label in different colours, and it all looked out of place. Even when really transparent. Maybe the black one is just done.@vinny, I like the next-to-last one best. In the ones before and after, I find the red bars are distracting.
I suggest you pick a theme and stick with it for a period, e.g., 2021 wines or 2022 wines. In your situation, your logo and the winery name (including font name and size) can be your theme. Play with other features.This is me trying to break free and keep it simple. I really need to see it on a bottle.
I was going to suggest using a razor decal remover, then I found this. Interesting; I've gotten all my bottles scraped years ago (and now obviously use our removable Everything Label), but hopefully someone tries this out and gives feedback. I'll create a separate post as well, just because it looks like it might be a fantastic solution.Well dang that sucks. It is such a good product. I hope someone else makes a similar thing.
Great job! Really like the distressed black with the diagonal red stripe. My only suggestion would be to add more contrast. Use a brighter red against the black, and have the gradient in the text and claw go from gray to white (instead of dark gray to light gray). Really minor nuance would be to enlarge the claw just a bit so it overlaps the stripe a bit more instead of converging with it. Again, great job.Labels are hard! I am just messing around with these.
