Soap label thought

PuddinAndPeanuts · Jan 28, 2015

For soap labels- do you think we could maybe use nonsticky paper labels, and then use pins (or staples, or something similar) to hold the labels on? (Probably With a big-a** note on the label that says 'remove pins before use').

I'm going to say no.

I'm not sure about anyone else but you are suggesting sticking pins into my soaps! Sacrilege!

Ha! Well, I see safety pins holding tags on clothes! I don't see why they couldn't be on soap. Although, that would not be my choice of preference.

I could see labels safety pinned or stapled as a closure for the paper itself... But staples in my soap?

Puddin- if you mean pins and staples being stuck to the actual soap (so that they actually penetrate the soap), I agree with Tvivian....no. I'm thinking that it could be a possible DOS problem waiting to happen.

I still think that's a hilarious thought. :thumbup:

Don't think that would be a very good option, if you want to use plain paper a glue stick would work much better. Labels are inexpensive, and would give your soap a nicer finished look.

Wait, glue paper to the soap???

I think they meant to glue the paper to itself around the soap.

Hopefully! That's what I do for now - paper bands that I wrap round and stick one end to the other. When I start selling, I'm looking at boxes instead.

I do the same but used card. I first tried sticky tape but that kept coming undone. I now use a glue gun.
