"Can I go to sleepaway camp this year?"
"Of course you can Sweetie."
In my head: Doh! Summer's coming up fast and I don't know what the kids schedules are going to be. And they need new summer clothes and swimwear and sandals. And labels! We're almost out of labels for all of this stuff!
Thanks goodness for Mabel's Labels!
Mini name stickers are dishwasher / microwave safe and UV resistant labels are not only great for lunch and snack containers, they're also fabulous for electronic gadgets, notebooks, pens, markers, and all the little odds and ends. For bigger items, they also have equally wonderful (just bigger) name stickers.
Tag-mates™ are clothing labels that are washer / dryer safe and best of all stick tight to clothing labels without ironing. Some of the clothes are worn and faded, but the labels are still going strong! (Of course if you really want iron on labels, they have those too!)
Growing feet mean new shoes, sandals, and boots too, which means new shoe labels are in order.
To help you save some money, they offer fabulous combo packs.
This year, Mabel is offering two brand-new label combo: a new “Day Camp Labels Pack*” and a new “Sleepaway Camp Labels Pack,**” available until the end of July.
We placed our order on Saturday, after lunch. Ordering the Sleepaway combo was easy-peasy:
Customize your label text, icon, and colours in the lower right.
You can see what your labels will look like in the upper left.
You can even pick single colour designs too, just click on "solid" in stead of "multicolour":
We settled on this "foxy" design:
Guess what arrived in the mail on Wednesday?
And it was filled with lots of crunchy label goodness:
Everything was perfect!
Thank you Mabel's Labels for your continued awesomeness!

Disclosure: I received free labels to allow me to write this review.
If your children all have the same initial (such as Nicole, Nancy, Nathaniel and Ned) you're all set. Get the initial with your family name!
If you've got two children with a large age difference, you may be able to convince the older one that icons on the stickers are for little kids. Then order your labels with the family name and cut off the icon for the older child to use. The younger child will identify anything with the name and the icon to be theirs.
Be sure to round the corners when you cut as approximated by the red lines in the image to the right.
If you need labels for two children, Nicole and Mabel, you could order the label as shown to the right.
Then for Nicole, cut off the ",M" and the icon. Be sure to round the corners when you cut as approximated by the red lines in the image to the right.
For Mabel, you cut off the "N." Again, be sure to round the corners when you cut as approximated by the red lines in the image to the right.
If you have a short family name and need labels for two children, Nicole and Mabel, you could order the label as shown to the right.
Then cut the label in half, one for each child. Be sure to round the corners when you cut as approximated by the red lines in the image to the right.
Use all the initials separated by a "/" for Nicole, Mabel and Tricia. No cutting required!
