We Love Cheeky Beer Labels!

April 29, 2010 by Jenny Walters Leave a Comment

We are not kidding: ever since we enabled you, our customers, to completely customize your labels you have had us rolling in the aisles with some of the ideas you’ve come up with. We love it! Inside jokes, embarrassing pictures, nudity, it’s all giving us a fierce case of the giggles.

It seems to us that most of the cheeky labels we’re seeing are beer labels. There’s just something about beer that brings out the irreverent sense of humor in everyone. All we ask is that you keep it up!

If coming up with cheeky or funny beer labels isn’t really your thing, you might enjoy browsing through our funny beer label section. You’ll see such favorites as “Kick Ass“, which will appeal to you if you enjoy silly pictures and wordplay, and relative newcomers like “Bad Santa” (perfect for really strong brews) and the wedding-appropriate “I Do Brew” label (perfect for a bachelor party or wedding pre-funk?).

Of course, if you prefer your cheeky humor with just a dash of irreverence, you’ll love the label featured above, “Homemade Beer Ale Labels“. We can think of a few pastors who wouldn’t mind getting a case of personalized beer with this label!

With all the microbrews and independent breweries out there, beer has gotten awfully serious lately. Let’s do what we can to keep the fun in drinking and enjoying it!

Custom Bachelorette Party Favor Ideas

April 22, 2010 by Jenny Walters Leave a Comment

You really do have a lot of options when planning a bachelorette party, don’t you? You could go naughty, with gifts and party favors that will make the bride blush, you could go nice, with a fun girls night out, or you could walk the fine line between.

Whichever side of the line you choose to plan from, make sure your guests feel appreciated by giving them fabulous favors. It’s easy to use a custom label like the one pictured above to turn good favors into great favors!

For example, if the bride loves chocolate why not send all the girls home with a bar of her favorite chocolate, personalized with a fun custom label? Or, you could order small mirror compacts and use custom labels to help each girl remember the fun she had at your party.

Bath salts, gift cards, jewelry boxes, the possibilities are endless! You can use custom labels to personalize almost any gift, so make sure that when the ladies leave your bachelorette party they have a little something to remember it by.

After all, if the party you plan veers toward the naughty end and there are many martinis consumed, they may need a little help remembering what happened!

Make Your Label and Check It Twice!

You’ve found the perfect label. Your heart speeds up a bit, your fingers fly over the keyboard, and before you know it you’ve designed a custom label that is everything you want it to be and more. Woo hoo! Just hit Checkout and go, right?

Hold on there a minute. Did you remember to proofread your label?

Much like Santa Claus with his list, it’s important to check your label over at least twice to make sure that names are spelled correctly, the dates are right, etc. Why? Because we won’t!

As much as we’d love to be psychic, we have no way of knowing whether the names, places, dates, or other information we see on your label are correct. If you type it in wrong, we will print it wrong! We’d hate for that to happen, so make sure you double-check your work before checking out.

If you ever have questions about etiquette (whose initial comes first in a monogram anyway?!) or aesthetics (what looks better, writing out the date or using numbers?) contact us. We’re happy to work with you to make sure your label looks perfect! Just remember, we won’t proofread it for you once you’ve submitted your order. Make sure it’s right before you check out!

Dinosaur-Sized Fun!

April 15, 2010 by Jenny Walters Leave a Comment

Dinosaurs are awesome. Huge and exotic, they can captivate a roomful of children like nobody’s business. That’s why we designed our adorable “Dinosaur Duo” water bottle label: to help you harness the fun of dinosaurs!

The great thing about dinosaurs is that they’re not specifically a boy or a girl thing, everyone likes them! You can throw a dinosaur birthday party for a little girl, a little boy, or both: the only thing that’s for certain is that everyone will have fun!

The same kind of idea applies to this label design. You can use this design to customize the bottled water at your party, or apply the design to custom labels and have custom birthday stickers with cute dinosaurs on them. You could use these custom stickers to seal birthday party favor bags, or even just throw a couple into each bag for the kids to play with later.

This design isn’t limited to birthday parties, either. Imagine how adorable this design would look at a charity golf tournament to benefit a children’s hospital! You could hand out personalized bottled water bearing this design, or even turn the design into a bumper sticker and hand out custom bumper stickers instead.

Much like the dinosaurs themselves, the possibilities for how you can use this label design are huge!

Promotional Bottled Water

We’ve been praising the merits of personalized promotional bottles of water for years now, but it always helps when outside authorities on the subject agree! Media Life Magazine recently published an article called “Your Client’s Logo on a Water Bottle” endorsing the practice of using custom label bottled water to spread the word about your company and make coupon offers more effective.

Some of the highlights of the article include:

“…after completing an inspection, an auto shop could place a complimentary bottle of water in the cup holder of the customer’s car, with a label coupon for a discounted oil change on the next visit.”

“Top venues for water-bottle giveaways include hospitals, meetings and conventions, trade shows, spas and resorts, golf courses and colleges.”

“In addition to coupons, labels can also include a call-to-action prompting the consumer to text a code to a particular number in exchange for a special offer.”

We’ve been helping companies create high-quality promotional bottled water for over seven years. Our new Design Online tool makes it easy to upload logos and graphics to water bottle labels, and our purified spring water is delicious and safe.

If you’re interested in reading more about how customized bottled water can help you promote your business or spread the word about special offers, peruse our archives or click over to read more of the article. We’ll also be happy to talk to you in person about the project you have in mind, so feel free to contact us for more information!
