What do you do if you have more than one child and don't want to spend a fortune on personalized labels for each one? Here are some ideas for you:
Solution A: Family name
From the FAQ on the Mabel's Labels website:Should you order the Classic Stickies you'll be able to give each kid their own colour (assuming you've got no more than three children).I have 2 kids, could I have half my order as "Jenny" and the other half as "Kate"?
Unfortunately we can’t split orders. But you might consider going with the family name, so everyone can share the labels.
Solution B: Give children have same initial
If your children all have the same initial (such as Nicole, Nancy, Nathaniel and Ned) you're all set. Get the initial with your family name!
What's that? You didn't name your children with the same initial and you don't want to rename them? No worries.... we have more ideas below!
Solution C: Two children -- icon / no icon
If you've got two children with a large age difference, you may be able to convince the older one that icons on the stickers are for little kids. Then order your labels with the family name and cut off the icon for the older child to use. The younger child will identify anything with the name and the icon to be theirs.Be sure to round the corners when you cut as approximated by the red lines in the image to the right.
Solution D: Two initials
If you need labels for two children, Nicole and Mabel, you could order the label as shown to the right.
Then for Nicole, cut off the ",M" and the icon. Be sure to round the corners when you cut as approximated by the red lines in the image to the right.
For Mabel, you cut off the "N." Again, be sure to round the corners when you cut as approximated by the red lines in the image to the right.
Solution E: Two initals, short family name
If you have a short family name and need labels for two children, Nicole and Mabel, you could order the label as shown to the right.
Then cut the label in half, one for each child. Be sure to round the corners when you cut as approximated by the red lines in the image to the right.
Solution F: Multiple initials
Use all the initials separated by a "/" for Nicole, Mabel and Tricia. No cutting required!
I hope you've found an idea in here that works for you. If you have other solutions you'd like to share, please let us know!
