Work fascinates me…
Work fascinates me: I could watch it or hours. Have you heard that on before? I’ve not only heard it, I’ve said. On many occasions. And not only does work fascinate me, I also have an insatiable curiosity about how things work, and how things are made. One of the things that piques my curiosity is stickers. I mean, how do they get those little plasticky pieces of paperish to stick to that waspaper stuff and also, how do the get the colors and shapes, and and and. Yeah, well, I am easily amused, but my kids have asked me in the past and I didn’t know what to say beyond “oh, they just print them that way.” Umm, yeah. D’uuuuuh.
Anyway, I now know a little more about how stickers are made, thanks to the awesomely informative Frontier Label. They have actual pictures of the machines in action, along with a little bit of explanation of the whole process. Gotta love it when you learn something, right? Anyway, they make labels and stickers for lots of stuff, but they concentrate on the home business market–candle jar labels and such. Obviously, I don’t need that kind of thing right now, but they would have been nice to have when I was knitting for dollars! And if I ever need them again, I’ll know to go to the site that taught me something about stickers.















Hi Cass
I am impressed with your curiosity. I, too, am a curious type of person and often find myself bogged down in “how does this work” or “how was that made”. I am new to blogging and your sites really grabbed my attention. I am saving your links to my blog. HOpefully that is okay with you. Check out my blog when you have time. I’m planning to have more than one since I enjoy cooking, sewing/crafts, photos, reading, etc. Also, some day in 2008 I hope to sign up for PayPerPost and the other sites like that.
Happy Holiday!
I left you a comment this weekend and just found out that Blogger doesn’t allow our comments to leave a link to blogs that we post. So, my link was not left with my comment yesterday. Here it is – http://www.ellens-treasures.blogspot.com. I don’t know if this is something new with Blogger but it seems as though it is. I’m so new to all this blogging stuff that I’m having to learn as I go.
Hope you visit my blog soon.
Ellen
