Custom Water Bottle Labels

What OOT bag would be complete without a couple bottles of water? But plain ol' bottled water without custom labels? Not on my watch! I knew that I wanted to add cute custom labels to my bottles, and debated doing them myself. After some thought, however, I decided that I need to bring in professional reinforcements on this one. Our hotel has fridges in each room, so I figure that folks might toss their bottles in there. Once the condensation starts, I knew that my little inkjet labels would melt, slide, and run into a drippy mess.

I looked at several sites that print custom labels and most of them had some pretty decent pre-designed templates. Because I have such a specific design concept, however, I really wanted to find a company that would print completely custom designs. I decided to use a company called Bottle Your Brand.

I opted to have the company apply my labels to the bottles and send the whole shebang at once. In hindsight, I should have just ordered the labels, because my order (bottles + labels) was approximately $30 before shipping. Just ordering the labels would have been under $10. With added weight of the water bottles, shipping was also more expensive, so note to self: Duh, just order the labels and spend the 20 minutes adhering them yourself, ding dong.

But, I will say, I'm very happy with the results. The labels turned out great and the cute little 8 oz. bottles will fit perfectly in our gable boxes. I loved being able to create custom designs that corresponded perfectly with my other DIY projects... all the way down to the right font and cute little red lovebirds.

I love this idea. I visited the website, but nothing is as cute as yours! Where did you find your design? I would really like to use it, if you don't mind...

Thanks!

This design is absolutely the "Cat's Meow"! Would you mind sharing your templates with me as well?  My colors are eggplant, fuschia and pewter.  I am SO STRESSING about getting the invite suite, etc. done. I promise to mention your generosity in my toast!! I am certain lots of people will ask about the wedding stationery design.  Thanks for sharing. I can be reached at mils2go@yahoo.com.

@dearlynn2 and daniellerenee85: I have sent both of you an email with the file and instructions for use. You might want to check your SPAM folder if you don't see the email; I sent it from work and my work emails often get routed into spam folders.

Thanks and good luck!

@canuckbee: I know what you mean about the cost. I originally wanted to do water bottles to have available at the ceremony, but I couldn't rationalize the cost. That's how I ended up with them in the OOT bags! I don't know if there are cheaper options out there, but I'll keep my fingers crossed that someone has some leads for you!

Could you also send the template to joeandkaila@gmail.com??

Thanks!
