Product Reviews: Label Daddy

I recently received the opportunity to create labels through Label Daddy. This opportunity couldn't have presented itself at a more perfect time, because I have been wanting to create packaging labels for outgoing orders as some extra blog promotion. Label Daddy labels are wearable, washable and totally affordable. Perfect for parents who want to keep track of family items without having to worry about damaging them with permanent marker. 

Label Daddy offers a variety of label types and sizes.  There's a label for everything! Clothing, backpack, shoes, lunchboxes, food containers and more are covered by Label Daddy labels.  If labels aren't enough, there are also luggage tags and zipper tags. It's a labeling frenzy!  I also love that the company offers "packs." The school pack is perfect for the back-to-school crowd and offers an assortment of labels to make sure your kids are covered when back in the classroom. 

I love the way my labels turned out despite not being able to preview them before hitting the submit button. The labels seem durable and of high quality. My only complaints is that the website falls a bit on the lackluster side. The ability to edit labels is limited, and some selections don't offer previews which make it difficult to envision the final product when ordering. The site would also benefit from an increase in the selection of graphics to add to the labels. Even with the website limitations, I am quite pleased at the final result of the product. I can't wait to start slapping these labels on all my outgoing packages!

Product Reviews: Adorama Pix

I recently had the opportunity to make a photo book through Adorama Pix. AdoramaPix offers a variety of photo options including prints, books, home decor, calendars and cards. This opportunity presented itself at the right time, since I had been thinking of making a surprise photo book to document my son's first season of soccer.  The Adorama Pix website was easy to use and navigate. I was able to upload and create a 10 page book in under 15 minutes. There were several template options to choose from to assist in the customization of books. The site offers leather, die cut and fabric covers, but I opted for the hardcover. I loved that I was able to have a front and back cover photo on the book to maximize photograph space.

I was pleasantly surprised when the my complete book arrived so quickly!  I ordered on the evening of June 30th, and the book was in my hands on July 6th. Not to shabby, considering mail days were lost due to the holiday weekend. The photo book featured thick, textured photo paper. The paper texture sent me into a tactile frenzy. I couldn't stop touching it. The thickness of the pages is a welcome feature. As a mama of three, I'm always worried my littles will get too aggressive turning the pages of our photo books. With pages this thick and durable, I won't have to worry about ripped pages. The lay-flat binding is a bonus and allows panoramic images to span across two pages without any separation. If I had to complain about something, it would be that the first and last pages are attached to the inside of the front and back cover. But that's more about my own preferences than anything else. It certainly didn't take away from the beauty of the book at all.
