Kay requested:-
*aluminum* popcicle stick labels. Does anybody have a source for these? -
about 1" by 8" by 3/8", and I'd like to find the same >size in aluminum.
The least expensive source is probably your local metal supply shop. They
will have a wide range of basic al material, including strips of the size
you want. You can either cut them up yourself using a hacksaw or the shop
will cut them up for a few cents a marker.
I using masking tape on them for a temporary label, using a waterproof
marker. This last a few months although the tape is a devil to get off. I
then add a permanent label using special computer compatable plastic labels.
If I cannot get the masking tape off, I simple reverse the marker and put
the new label on the other end. My permanent markers are like new after
three years of our cold winters.
