Review & Giveaway! Dymo LetraTag Labelmaker

I love trying any product that helps keep things organised and while I do have a labeller, it’s pretty ancient and definitely not as cool as this one :( So, I was very happy to test out the Dymo LetraTag Labelmaker.

So, what to label first…. I remembered that my “kid files” had written tags on them so I thought I would test out the Dymo LetraTag to see if the labels would fit inside the suspension file tags. Big ol’ happy dance, because they do!!!

Here are my “kid files” before:

And here they after they have had a mini-makeover with Dymo.  Very, very spiffy huh :)

Then Jacob got in on the act and decided that we needed to label his “special pen”. It was really easy to roll the label around the pen so it was easy to read. You know that I am going to be spending the school holidays labelling everyone of his pens with him now :)

And since Jacob was so impressed with the little crocodiles that the Dymo LetraTag could print out we labelled him as well – just in case I forgot who he was.

The Dymo LetraTag Labelmaker is really simple to use and the labels are available in paper, plastic, metallic and iron-on.

There are a couple of really nifty features:

• two line printing
• has 195 symbols!
• 6 font styles
• date stamping
• manual cutter
• 9 label memory - nothing worse than needing to type in the same thing over & over again!
• auto power off

Day Twelve – 30 Day Meme

Day 12 – something you are OCD about
There’s not really that much I’m overly fussy about. I like know where things are and what’s going on but, if things change, so be it. If I had to pick something, I would say my pantry. If things get out of “my order” in here, people might just starve :) I blogged about my newly organised pantry here.

Organised Pantry!!

OK I reorganised the pantry before Christmas so there's no before pictures, but hey, I'm really impressed they have stayed life this!


I couldn't get the entire pantry in one shot no matter how far I stood back so I've posted it in a few photos. The first two show the main part of the pantry. I've tried to assign shelves so a) it's easier to find things and b) so people know where to put things back! I couldn't get a good shot of the very top of the pantry where I keep things we have multiples of or refill other containers like coffee, cordial, tea, sauce and oil.


DH put these baskets on the doors for me, as we had so much wasted space that could be used.

On the right, I keep all the foil, glad wrap, baking paper and herbs and spices that we use a lot........


On the left, there are the spray oils, balsamic vinegar and any sauces/marinades.


So, that's our pantry. hopefully, by posting pictures of it, it will keep me motivated to keep it this wasy and not let it get away from me :)
