Clothing etc ID labels

Camino Inglés (2017)
I'm sitting here sewing and gluing clothing ID labels to my clothes and gear. (Think what some moms attached to summer camp clothing.)

I got 100 for $18 at starlight labels (in the US). I chose sew-on. Unlike the old woven material kind, these feel almost plastic/paper-like so there's a bit of an effort to push a needle through. The advantage is that they are easily glued onto penknife, headlamp, cellphone etc.

I chose the 3-line option with name, email, and cellphone number. They will also be great "business/calling" cards to hand out. Minuscule (1/2" x 2 1/2") compared to regular cards. Depending on the length of your longest line, left and margins can be trimmed. (1/2" total for me)
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.

No ID labels we needed but we did have these with us and they worked out great ! :)
