NEW LABELS

[Vaughn]

I vote the right one. This would look good on one of those cobalt blue bottles that George carries.

Tonight is label making night, my new Merlot label.

 

[Waldo]

Just finished bottling my blueberry wine today was going to take a picture but I need a new usb cord for my printer. Which label?

Ramona

What ya think about this version Ramona?

 

[MedPretzel]

I really like them all!





Stinkie, you did a great job!

Ramona,

the one on the right. The "Firethorne Ridge" should be darkened up or the outlining should be taken away to be more readable.I'm sure it looks different at a higher resolution. I like the other one too, but I like more color in a label. But that's just me.

Waldo, You never cease to amaze me.

Happy gobble-gobble day, y'all!

Good Thanksgiving Morning to you all,


Martina, I think you are right about the blue one, darking the letters, but it acturally looks better in print. And Waldo I love what you do with my labels......gives them a new twist!!!


Well, gotta get the Turkey stuffed and in the oven.


Happy Thanksgiving...Edited by: rgecaprock

Frank,


I really love your labels.


Ramona...........

 

[MedPretzel]

Stinkie, you've got quite serious labels!!! I would think you'd have this,



I'm not drinking this *&^*&^
Merlot


label.

 

[bilbo-in-maine]

Sophisticated, Frank!

Ramona, actually I think the left label hold promise. If it were in full color it
could be quite nice. It's rather formal, so could have a thin border to define
it all... Just another opinion

 

[rgecaprock]

Thanks bilbo,


I just might do that and see how it looks. I can't print anything until I get a new usb cord so haven't actually decided which to use yet or maybe i'll come up with another one.

Hello...in awe at the amount of work and creativity you all are putting into your labels.Waldo...you do some awesome work, is it your trade, craft, art???
I notice in some posts in other parts of this Forum that lack of accents on some words...must be my French heritage. Just in case some are wanting to do it, this is how to put the ' over the e in Rosé or in Herbs de Provénce.
For Your Information...if you really care????
Type Ros...the hold down the 'alt' key and type in 1 3 0 using the keypad and Voilà the é appears...Rosé or inHerbs de Provénce.
For the capital version hold down the 'alt' key and type in 1 4 4...[for some reason this Reply box won't allow that accent.]
For other accents try this WebSite

This post was just in case anyone really gives a heck...till later.
Got to check on 'the bird' and open some wine for the guests...Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Northern Wino where were you when I was trying to translate " AHa! Home Made Wine" I translated it on Microsoft Word, and it came out with what I use, "A'le Maison Mad Vin.


Just doesn't look right to me, but I don't know French, so I hope thats not to insulting to you. Also, being here in North Carolina, no one would really know the difference, Farther north and some one may say something.





What would you recommend for the proper way to type this?

 

[AAASTINKIE]

My sister loved my wines but thought my labels were a little juvenile, so I'm upping my act.

I'm also getting pretty good at using the label program.

Nice Job Frank on the labels but don't start acting likea grown up all the time.


If you lose the kid inside it is time for the rocking chair!

 

[MedPretzel]

What would you recommend for the proper way to type this?

I'm not french, only had it in high school:





Le Vin De LaMaison (the wine from the house/the wine of the house)


Le Vin, qui fait au Maison (the wine which was made at home)


Vin fait à la maison (Wine made at home)





Hope this helps

 

[NorthernWinos]

All that Med Pretzel [Martina] wrote will work in North Carolina or anywhere is the great USA...don't worry too much...nothing is offensive...Anything written on a wine bottle is all good. The usual stuff like Rosé is what is most noticeable to everyone. Enjoy your wine making and enjoy your wine....later

 

[PolishWineP]

Stinkie! Get rid or the apostrophe in Holidays! You don't need one there! Otherwise, it's a beautiful label.

 

[NorthernWinos]

Do the labels that are printed on plain paper and applied with a glue stick really stay stuck to the glass?????

 

[PolishWineP]

We have had no problem with it. If you get the colored glue sticks you can see better what you're doing. And it just takes a few minutes of soaking and off it comes!

 

[bilbo-in-maine]

Really works

 

[rgecaprock]

I use the glue sticks too and they work just fine. One thing that would be helpful is to get a paper cutter rather then scissors. If you are like me I can't cut a straight line even if there is a line there to follow.....lol.
