O.K., I have my DISigned labels (thank you Natalie), now I just have to attached them to the tube. What is the best way to do this - tape, peel & stick "laminating" paper??

Any advice would be great!:goodvibes

There are lots of ways to make these:

1. print on cardstock, trim, wrap around the tube and secure with double sided tape.

2. for a more professional look...print on "brochure paper" (which can be found at office supply stores and is a glossy type paper), trim, wrap around the tube and secure with double sided tape

3. print on cardstock, trim, then adhere clear packing tape or clear contact/shelf paper to the printed side to protect against the elements, then wrap around the tube and secure with double sided tape.

Hope that helps!

Brochure paper? Didn't realize you could buy that. Thanks for the suggestion!

I just printed on regular paper and used clear packing tape to "seal" the whole thing.

The brochure paper is GREAT for making candy bar wrappers! Because it is glossy it makes it look professional and it isn't as thick as cardstock so it is easier to wrap around the candy bar. Regular paper is too thin in my opinion as the dark wrapper can show through.
