M. & Terri:

Thanks for the help with labels. Yes , I do m & p and bath salts

only. For the m & p I've got really small avery labels and for the bath

salts I use their shipping labels. I'd prefer to stick to the sticky

labels because it holds the plastic wrap in place on the back, and I

also like to be able to see the colors, etc. of the soaps.

As for set-up and printing labels I'm lucky enough to have a computer

fanatic husband who does everything. I hand him a sheet of paper and

say, " here, this is what I want on labels, signs, etc. " And he does the

rest. Pretty proud to say that I did the set-up on my business cards

alone though. That was a major accomplishment in itself!!!

G. suggested an avery label that should fit my soaps so I'm going

to check them out (#5160).

Colleen,

I'm close enough to you that if you would like some help with labels I'd be

happy to get together with you and see what we can up with. I don't use

sticky labels at all...I use a nice parchment type paper and then use clear

packing tape (aka label protector tape) to fasten them on. I did start out

using small Avery labels, but that was too much of a hassel.

Though I have to say that I messed with them long enough that our printer is

lined up to within a 16th of an inch now! lol

Let me know,

Colleen (and Terri)

If I remember right, Colleen, I think you said you did mostly M & P. That's what

I do and the reason I stick with the small sticky labels is because I don't want

to cover up any of the designs of my soaps. I like to be able to see both sides

of the soap, especially since I do a lot of embedding and I want the customer to

be able to see both sides of that. So keep that in mind when you do labels and

if you're doing M & P.

Thanks for the great advice on your experience with printing labels.

I copied the following off another list so I have no personal knowledge also

having no personal courage to print them.

Avery-like labels

Here's a place I found a while back. I've been using their labels and have

been very happy. And, as Lillian points out, their prices are much cheaper

than going to Staples and buying Avery. I got 25 sheets of round labels to

fit my 3 " pvc soap and the price was $6.50. It's a good thing!!

Whoops!, Sorry guys. Double clicked and it got sent before I responded.

LOL Anyway, . Maddie gets OT, but not all kids going through the

Philly special education system get it. I was told that she probably

wouldn't qualify for OT in a life skills class because OT is only given as a

pre-writing therapy. REALLY ticked me off. She ended up being evaluated

and determined that YES indeed she needed OT. Not that it mattered since she

ended up in private school (paid for by our SD), but it bugged me to think of

all the other kids in the public school who need it and dont' get it.

And no, we dont' think you're hung up on labels. I put off getting Maddie

dx'd for so long, saying I didn't want a label. Reality was I didn't want to

face it. If it's not there, you don't see it, right? Ultimately, I had

family members, friends, teachers, and therapists coming to me and

saying.... " Duh....what're you gonna do here? " At which point, I realized I

had no choice but to move on this if we were going to get Maddie into the

best school program for her. If she didn't have the dx of asd, we never

would have been able to get her into Melmark....well, at least not if we

wanted the school district to pay. Unfortunately , unless school

officials see *lables*, they don't want to *pay* for the services our kids

need. It's really like being in a Catch 22 situation for many, especially

if your child is going through the public school. They're so good at

pigeon-holing and yet when they see DS/ASD, they have no clue where to go

from there. We fought HARD to get Maddie into her school. The SD wanted

to send her to what they call a MH classroom. (multiply-handicapped) WEll,

I saw this class. Over my dead body is essentially what I told them. And

it has nothing to do with prejudice against those other children in that

class. Could any of you see my Maddie, knowing her as you do, in a

classroom of 5 other children, strapped to seats and on ventilators??????

Maddie's EI teacher came right out and told them that not only would such a

classroom be totally wrong for Maddie, BUT a danger to the other children.

After all, those ventilators are attached to these wonderful dangly

cords!!!!! REALLY, I mean, here we have a kid who could run away and make

it to the coast on bare feet from Philly AND climb the blinds in the

classroom and they wanted her in this class!!!! GEEZ!!!! But this is

what happens when they have what they call a " dually-dx'd " child (hence the

multiply-handicapped term). However, if she didn't have the label, they

would never even consider footing the bill for the private school she now

goes to. PLUS, she gets OT (and they ARE working on pre-writing with

Maddie-----um..well, the goal actually is to get her to hold a crayon and use

it without eating it...but that's more than the SD would give us), ST, SI,

one on one swim lessons (the other kids do it with the entire class, but

Maddie was pulling on the other kids and sinking them, so she gets one on

one...LOL) AND they cover any adaptations she needs in the classroom. Even

if I'd fought for another type classroom in the public school, Maddie would

not be getting these services. So, long and short of it (sorry this is so

LONG guys) is that we needed that label. Honestly, I hate to think where

Maddie would be if we hadn't gone this route.

, you can vent vent and vent. Lord knows all the stuff we have to

deal with!!!

You all must think I'm hung up on labels- I'm really not. I just think we all

wonder from time to time where our child fits in on the scale. Since

was very young I've always known that she's at the low end of the scale for D.S.

We have always been very involved with Downs groups & we know she's not a

" typical " Downs.(whatever that means!). Anyway, that's why it's so nice to have

this group. ... A while back you described JJ as being profoundly

retarded. How can he be if he's having success with PECS? Also, when I ask

about getting a true dx of autism, it's not that I want to slap another label on

Steph, it's just that I'm tired of always describing her as a " very

low-functioning child with Downs " . Also, I want to access strategies, support,

respite, etc. which might be more available to a child with a double dx. Of

couse I agree with Terry who said " I don't care what the dx is as long as we can

cope with the symptoms, behaviours,etc. " This List is going a long way in

helping me deal with everything, but unfortunately, the school personnel are not

on this list - - your little guy's family is so lucky to have you as their

E.A. An example is that all these yrs. has never been assessed by an

O.T. - most kids with D.S. don't need O.T.(for sensory integration issues).

Anyway, I keep telling them to look at her needs & address them - leave the

labels out of it - but it's hard. So many special ed people are pigeon-holed

I agree ! It's much easier to say Seth has autism to explain his

actions. Everyone can see that he has downs, but that in NO WAY explains his

weird little acts he puts on. LOL Seth wouldn't get half the services he

does without that dx either. Go for it all , you and Steph need it

and should have it.

Hi

I'm catching up on some old e-mails which I made notes on & one was from you

where you described J.J. as being profoundly retarded & totally non-verbal.

This was just after you had shared with us the wonderful progress that J.J. has

been making with the PECS system of communication. It seems to me that he would

be pretty high functioning to be communicating this way. No one has suggested

to us trying any kind of picture exchange system until very recently. We have a

private speech therapist who is beginning to introduce pictures(photos), but up

until now everyone has thought that is too " profound " or " too

low-functioning " to use this kind of system. It's interesting how we all see

our children differently fron how other people see them. I love to hear

everyone's success stories. It gives me hope.

I am not trying to get y'all fired up again, but I have serious questions

after listening for several days. How is using INCI names, including Sodium

Hydroxide, " honest " since there is no NAHCO3 left after the sap?

Laurie,

You have me totally confussed :0) What does sodium bicarbonate have to do

with your question/why is it in there in the first place?

Hi Laurie.

My days of getting fired up are gone. I learned a long time ago that you can

lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink:-) If you look at my

last email you will see that there are two acceptable ways to list soap

ingredients. You can list the ingredients that you used to make the soap,

which would include the sodium hydroxide-this is the method that I prefer-or

you can list what is in the finished soap. In the latter you would be

listing like Sodium Palmate, etc. I don't like this method because you also

have to list the unsaponifiables, and let's face it, most of us don't know

the actual amount of the unsaponifiables, which you need to list correctly.

There is also a precedent to look to in the manufacture of lotion and cream.

Many times when we make those we end up making a soap within the lotion or

cream, yet, when we list the ingredients, we always list the actual

ingredients that went into making the product, including the actual

ingredient that went into making the soap part. If I buy a loaf of bread I

want to see the ingredients that went into making it. I think people deserve

to know what went into making the product and they don't need double talk

from people that have a hangup with some of the ingredients that they use.

Pat.

Peace, Joy, Serenity.

Maybe this'll help:

If you don't list what went in it there's a good indication by your recipe

what is in the finished bar:

sodium canolate (canola soap) - INCI followed by common name in brackets

sodium cocoate (coconut oil soap)

water - the next largest ingredient

glycerin - more than the superfat ratio, less than the water

canola oil, (assuming a 5% superfat overall there's still free oils left,

in the same ratio they went in)

cocos nucifera (coconut) oil

fragrance/eo + herbs (if any, INCI name followed by common name in brackets)

colour (if any by INCI name)

anti-oxidants (if any by INCI name)

That's how end-product soap labelling can be done. But, if you want to do

it the other way around just use INCI followed by common names in

parentheses and put all the ingredients that went in, in descending

order. Either way is OK by the FDA.

People will have questions either way, but you just help them understand

the process of soapmaking is lye/oil/water dependent, and they'll be

fine. Also point out that there is no lye left in a finished bar of soap,

and like baking a cake it's been permanently changed into something new -

soap and glycerin.

Hi! In word there is a toolbar called word art. With your mouse

right click on your tool bars. A list of tool bars will appear,

select the one called word art. Otherwise you can try to select the

package number in labels if it is compatible with the software. I

know Avery labels have a wizard that helps you create your labels,

but you have to download that from their website. Hope that helps.
