Subject: 28# bond paper for label


I see some people just use standard paper and a glue stick for labels.
How do they hold us in the fridge or a cooler?

When they are taken out of the fridge, does the condensation makes them
start peeling off?

Thanks,

Jim

I use a Dymo LetraTag I got for $25 at Staples :-) The vinyl-style
tape labels stay well in refrigeration and coolers and come off pretty
easily at bottle cleaning time.

I know, I know, it's utilitarian, but it works!

I have a personal label I made I would like to use. I am trying out some
24# paper I found now on a bottle.

I use a foo-foo paper I got at Staples, 24#, I think, and a glue-stic
for my wine bottles. I noticed that they tend to wrinkle up a bit when
you take them out, but mine all seem to go back into place once it
dries off a little.

I was thinking I'd try a different glue next time.
