I understand that brand new fabrics have something added to them in the factory (like sizing) so they look nice on the bolt, but it washes out in the first wash, so you must prewash your fabric before you begin this process and the ink will be much more likely to be permanent. Also, iron the fabric after it comes out of the printer in order to set the ink into the fabric. Use a press cloth or a sheet of regular printer paper to keep any ink from getting on your iron, or smearing across your label sheet. then flip your label cloth over and iron it on the back as well.
Wow, thank you. That's very informative
Thank you 😊
. many thanks 🙏
For those wondering or having issues with the color bleeding or fading, try soaking your labels in white vinegar! After they’ve printed and dried, place them on a cookie sheet (one sheet at a time), let them sit and soak in the white vinegar for about 5 minutes, allow them to dry completely before using and done!
this keeps them from fading?? Really? wow. thanks!~~
I was just going to ask if you could iron the wax side of the paper over the print and if that would help but this vinegar idea is awesome. I will try.
@@krissifaith6709 Did it actually work?
@@31Lcons Did it end up working?
Sure to try it myself😊 thanks
This was very helpful an it's a beautiful idea thank you very much..may you continue to be blessed
I have been looking for a cost effective way of printing labels... I will try it.. 😊
OMG I have been trying to figure out how to do this for ages. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!Your explanation made it perfectly clear. Every Tutorial I've ever seen never explained how to do it with wax paper. I was always left confused about where to buy the type of paper they were using. I feel like I just hit the jackpot. Lol Thank you again! You are a great teacher! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Hi I know how you're feeling. I was sending messages to everyone I watched on YT and no one ever reponded. I havent tried this yet, but once I am done gathering my materials, I am going to use this to personalize my work.
What a great idea. I could see this method working for fabric dolls' faces too. Could either leave them as-is, or use the printed design as a template to embroider over. Thanks, you've got my mind working now!
Thank you so much for this video. I just made 4 sheets of it this evening. Luckily, I had the wax paper, white high quality cotton fabric and the computer software. They turned out terrific. Now for the vinegar tip.
Did the vinegar tip work?
I have to say this is an excellent idea.I spent money on transfer paper,and it didnt work.After i seen your material i didnt have that freezer paper in house so i used thermal paper the one im using to print shipping labels (A6 i made small squares) and it works.Thank you for sharing your material,really useful.
The ink/printing is more permanent if printed on PFD fabric or you can pre-treat your own natural cotton or silk fabric with "BubbleJet" following instructions on label.
(PFD: Prepared For Dying -- HTHs).
Love how you always go step by step and don't miss anything out. Fabulous! xxx
I just tried this and I am very pleased. I have two gifts to give soon from "Uncle" and my normal "made-by" labels are not personal enough. Thank you for this tip!
Thanks! I used pay for my labels to be made. Now I can make them at home! And I used wax paper instead it still came out perfect. Thanks so much for sharing!
This has been so helpful. This video has saved me some money as I was ready to purchase transfer paper and ribbon. I already have all of the materials. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your talents. I have been looking on how to make my own labels on fabric, thank you very much. Great instructions, very easy to follow.
Thank you for showing the clever technique of making nice labels
Thanks for this. My daughter is a Graphic Design student and has all the fun programs to do vector graphics. We may have to give this a try on the Christmas break.
Mind blown!!! Running out now to get freezer paper and get started! You’re a penny saver, thank you!
I just tried this and the results were amazing! Thanks so much!
You have such perfect timing. I was literally just looking at labels on Etsy and I just couldn't find what I was looking for, thank you for this :)
he he glad to help!
I'm glad i cane across this.
There is a product called Inkpress Image Guard which is a spray-on and is a water resistant coating for inkjet printed images. it is made by Inkpress Digital Media and is available online.
Thanks. I always wanted to try this but not sure that I could be successful. You method seems very easy to do. I will definitely try it. Ann from Va. USA 🇺🇸
This is a brilliant tutorial. Thanks for posting. Really helps me understand better. I've never seen it demo'd on anything other than a scan n cut.
That was awesome! Thanks for sharing you're tutorials, they are very informative. You are so crafty and economical it's a pleasure watching all your videos. Much Love sent from the USA, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
You can get the freezer paper from hobbycraft and boyes in the uk.

That is so cool. Don't know if we have freezer paper in Australia but I'll find something suitable. Fabulous idea, thanks so much 👍✖️
This was so amazing and extremely help my hubby and I cannot wait to try it. Thank you so much.
Textile medium will make the ink in your labels more durable. After you printed add a layer of medium, let it dry and iron it. You can add more layer of medium.
Thank you! i found this one the most useful AND you were the only one who answered my question about fading :)
So clever, and simple to do, thank you for sharing
You are quite detailed. Thanks for this. And I just subscribed for this.
Thank you! I really enjoyed this tutorial, something I never thought I could do at home!
I tried this methinks. It works perfectly fine. Thank you so much!
Brilliant idea, thank you so much. Great way to do these for my grand children with their own name on when I make them something. - also great for marking PE kits & coats. xx
hi I love your tutorials! as someone new to crochet I find them very easy to follow! could you please do a tutorial on corner to corner crochet using different colours of wool too? please! thank you!
I have one C2C tutorial ua-cam.com/video/2-jjJa2osrw/v-deo.html
Wowwwww . Thank you,thank you 😳😳😳😳,you are awesomely generous.
I love your method! I'm definitely going to try this. Thank you for making this tutorial ❤️
Great and helpful video! Just thinking out loud here but I wonder if spraying it with Scotchgard at the end would help keep the ink from fading when the garment is washed. Anybody know?
Julie M I’m thinking of trying this method using waterproof spray to stop any smudging and fading? Could you please let me know if you were successful thanks 🙏
"Oh hey I have a knitting channel :D" WAIT WHAT? Where was this info when I was making hats ( ; A;)
Going to try thank you for sharing this
It works thank you so very much for sharing this
fantastic thank you so much for sharing I'm definitely going to try and make my own labels for my knitted hats !
I use these, and use a weak dye to colour the label to match the item! My black ink is washproof but the colour washes straight out even after heat setting.
Very nice job. I was just wondering how to do this!
That is really cool!!! Thank you for showing this. I never knew how to do this.
Love this video !! Thank you it was very helpful wonder if I can make the printer paper and ask a person in public places to use my personal freezer paper to print
YOUR A BLOODY LEGEND. thanks!
Omg thank u so much for this idea, thanks to you now my finish product are going to be label by me thank u
Thank you you are so amazing ! I love the video it is just came on time for a ford able printer. Go girl you made my day!
Brilliant concept thanks for sharing this
Thank you for the tutorial! I'm off to look for the materials!!
Thank you so much!😁 I just made some! They came out great!😁
This would be so amazing to make like photo blankets by quilting or something along those lines... Now I'm planning a gift for my grandmother in the future... 0_0
Great idea but the freezer paper did not adhere to fabric. I just stapled it at the edges. I am pretty impressed with the results. Thank you so much.
It needs to be the type of freezer paper with a plastic backing that sticks
GREAT tutorial thanks you so much! I always like your tutorials
Thanks, that kind of extra tips worth a lot!

Omg!! Thanks so much for this tutorial. It is very useful info😄
Thanks for a wonderful tutorial!
Congratulations happyberry!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Another great instruction. Thank you.
Wow, this is amazing! Thanks so much :D Would you happen to know how well these labels hold up in the wash? As in, do they fade quickly or not? AND, do I have to use an ink jet printer, or do laser work with this technique as well?? So many questions, sorry!!
Laser printer should work too, although haven't tested it myself, as for holding up in the wash, I've washed them a few times and they have been ok, they will fade over time just like normal labels do, but best to experiment first before sewing on to your project as all wash cycles and inks vary!
Good to know. Thanks so much!
@@HappyBerryCrochet You are so HUMBLE. Your voice is so soft and a pleasure to listen to. Thanks for this great information. So precious and very helpful. I have two laser printers. So funny, coz I purchased 2 boxes of Reynolds wax paper for my candles and here I have another "fun hobby". Thanks for sharing caring and making me smile 🥰. A big hug from France 👍👍👍💐💐💐 STAY SAFE 😷

Fantastic! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for your tutorial. Would you know how to make labels that are foldable to put on knitted hats or sewn project bags please.
I love this. i'm gonna try. Thanks!!
Great idea!! What are some of your tips for coming up with a logo! Thank you in advance!
Well as a graphic/web designer by trade I recommend designing a logo that works for everything you need such as business cards, websites etc etc, what works on one platform may not sit well on another, keep it clean and simple, avoid overly fancy text so it scales down well and try and choose something that you can grow with/is timeless. Hope that helps a little!
great tutorial!
Clearly explained...Tfs
it's so informative, and timely for me. thnx :)
Just Amazing thank you for sharring
Good tutorial!! 💜💜💜
Excellent, thank you very much.👍
awesome video! thanks!
Cool! Thanks for sharing.
Do you have a video showing how you then go on to make the labels. You say to sew them, but I’m not sure what you mean. Thank you
Obvious questionand you've probably answered before. Can the fabric be washed? Does the ink run in water or washing machine please?
