cigar bands

[lsg]

You make sure you cut them nice and evenly with the paper cutter and then they don't meet evenly on the back or the side or wherever you tape the two ends together. Need to be trimmed every time because soaps just aren't perfect blocks. Even with a good smooth pour.

I thought about boxes but then you have to buy adhesive labels or sheets and fit them and the design attractively next to the cutout. My design I like is too large. There's no really easy way to package is there? Unless naked soaps somehow but you'd still have to figure out a way to communicate the ingredients to customers.

I use cigar band-type labels with soap boxes. I make a 2' x 8" band using Printmaster and printer paper. You can just put the band along the width or length of the box and glue down the ends. The label is in the middle of the cigar band, the use directions and safety blurb on one end and the ingred list and my name and address on the other end. I place the cigar band so the label is in the middle of the front of the box and the ends are on the back.
