best way to label roses?
Comments (26)Kim, are these the ones you use? I keep mine next to my computer so that while I'm online I can make more--that doesn't mean I'm good about actually taking them outside and putting them on the roses!;) I get these at a local nursery, Mt. Fuji, in Upland, CA. On mine I write the name, class, date and name of breeder (plus country), and where and when I acquired the plant. For example for Europa's Rosengarten the label shows Europa's Rosengarten Floribunda 1989, Karl Hetzel (Germany) Eurodesert Roses, CA, 2011 Here are some plant markers/signs used by Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden in Claremont, CA. Btw I asked about the markers, and they told me that they try to always put the ones with the accession number on the south side of the plant. So if you really want to know what it is, search for that marker (sometimes 2 different kinds are used--one in the ground the other wired on the plant). The signs are more prominent and contain more info. The last 2 above were on the same plant of R. minutifolia. What I like about what they are using is the heaviness of the wire gauge. I'm looking to find a wire that is a bit more substantial than what came with the Cole's (very fine--sharp looking too for rose canes!) and yet is still flexible and easy to work with and will fit through the pre-punched holes.

Comments (6)I just printed 90 labels today with one Brother TZ-131 1/2 inch wide tape roll for $ 9 or so. Plus I printed another 10 labels and discards. Thanks Ken, I will also start taking the H. and the '' off, wastes tape. I do not know yet how on my Ptouch 1010R I can print continuously, because I have to define 'Length' up front. I figured out that I can save a little tape by using 2.0 in length for small names and 2.5 in for longer names, but I still at least waste 1 in each label. All my conifer names were 2 lines. I just ordered another tape, and a power adapter because that way in a year i.e. I will not run into dead batteries. Only 100 more to go tomorrow, no SAD due to labeling! (I only have 58 different conifers and 138 different hostas) Bernd...See MoreWhat to do with all those address labels?
Comments (22)According to the Washington State Office of the Attorney General I pulled this info from their website. Hope it helps! I have soooo many label sheets to shred it's not funny! Good Luck! What should I shred? In short, destroy all sensitive information including junk mail and paperwork that includes: Account numbers Birth dates Passwords and PINs Signatures Social Security numbers To protect your privacy, you should also consider shredding items that include: Names Addresses Phone numbers E-mail addresses Below is a list of specific items to consider shredding for your safety and privacy: Address labels from junk mail and magazines ATM receipts Bank statements Birth certificate copies Canceled and voided checks Credit and charge card bills, carbon copies, summaries and receipts Credit reports and histories Employee pay stubs Employment records Expired credit and identification cards including driver�s licenses, college IDs, military IDs, employee badges, medical insurance cards, etc. (If your shredder can�t handle plastic, cut up cards with a scissors before discarding them.) Expired passports and visas Legal documents Insurance documents Investment, stock and property transactions Luggage tags Medical and dental records Papers with a Social Security number Pre-approved credit card applications Receipts with checking account numbers Report cards Resum�s or curriculum vitae Signatures (such as those found on leases, contracts, letters) Tax forms Transcripts Travel itineraries Used airline tickets Utility bills (telephone, gas, electric, water, cable TV, Internet) Here is a link that might be useful: The Washington State Attorney General Website...See MoreSchool me on custom built-in library shelves
Comments (79)Patty - thanks for your perspective! We do need the lamps as they are arranged, because we use them at different times - usually not all at once. And no, the room doesn't feel like a Starbucks with a small chair in the corner; in fact, it feels perfect and complete with that chair there. I'm really excited that the new chair has already shipped and should be here on Saturday. Last night I arranged the books on the shelves and am amazed at how few books we actually have in contrast to the space now available to put them on! I love the look though. I especially love that we can now easily locate our reading material. In our previous home the books were scattered all over the place - upstairs, downstairs, and all points in between. I really like storing them in one central location. I know I do tackle and complete projects quickly. I just can't stand to have things that I want to do and not do them if the budget permits. Having recently closed on our old home, we are in a better position to move forward on the new house. DH really can't stand unfinished projects, and actually stresses when things aren't worked to completion. So that kinda works to my advantage as well. ;-) I know we all do things differently though, at our own pace. There's absolutely nothing wrong with taking one's time! Anitamo, thanks for asking about our kitchen cabinets. That job has been completed, and they look fantastic. A crew came out and pretty much dismantled the kitchen, rebuilt a few things and redid the finish on the cabinets. We are very pleased with the way they addressed the problem....See Moreginny12
