craftgrrlI'm sure you've all thought about this before, but I thought I'd share my idea in case it hadn't occurred to someone...
I thought of a really simple way to make garment tags for homemade clothing and stuff. Just buy some 1" wide ribbon, cut off pieces that are about 2" in length, fold it so the cut edges are together, and sew the cut edges right into a hem or seam. To personalize it, you can draw/write on it with thin Sharpies, textile markers, etc.
Like said, I'm sure that most of you have already thought of this, but I figured I'd put it out there. *shrug*
EDIT: Also, as mentioned by someone in the comments below, you could machine/hand embroider little designs onto them if you wanted to. That would take care of the marker-bleeding problem.
