Did you try a laundry pen or just a Sharpie?
Love Stuck on You. They are awesome and don't come off!
Hello Mamas. I am looking for some good labels for my babies clothes for day care. I purchased some of namebubbles.com and they come off in the washing machine. Any good suggestions?
Edit:
I used a sharpie first but it smeared. I will try the rub a dub sharpie. To clarify, I am looking fo stickers to put on his clothes and bibs and such to mark as his in school.
Thanks!

I just got a set of Mable's Labels for my kiddos. I LOVE them. the taggies (I think that is what they are called) are stick on, not iron on and go on the tags of children's clothes, but I have actually stuck them right on the t-shrit and they haven't come off. I was a bit worried, but they are a dream. You can also buy a "package" shoe tags, clothes tags and stuff tags (cups, bottles, sunscreen, etc) and two name badges to hook on to diaper bag or bottle cooler. I cannot tell you how much I love these tags! They also let you choose little pictures to personalize a bit, if you want.
I used Lovable Labels, they work great.

They have all sorts of labels for labeling your child's belongings. They come in cute colors and styles. I use the press and stick clothing dots and their multipurpose sticker labels for the girls belongings.
Good luck!
I also used Mabel's Labels. When I used them, they were iron ons & they never peeled up! I also used the labels, which are stick on, for the bowls, bottles, sippy cups, etc. My oldest is 6 1/2 & the labels with his name on them are still on the bowls despite 6 1/2 years of being put through the dishwasher!
I haven't had much luck with labels over the years :( So, I just started marking right on the clothing with an indelible fabric marker (is that what they are called?). Much cheaper than the labels and lasts alot longer.
Good luck!
I like the labels from "Stuck on You". (www.stuckonyou.biz). I like how the labels stick on the garment and make it easier to iron on. I have used Label Your Stuff but like Stuck on You better.
Try just sewing a small color of thread inside the collar of the clothing. It would be a different and unique way to label at the least.
I love Stuck On You labels. They have tons to choose from on their website.
I really like Mabel's Labels. I've used them on my son's things for 2 years, and have only had 1 come off. They're good in the dishwasher and microwave too.
If you go to retailmenot.com, you might be able to get a discount. I did.
All you have to do it, get a Sharpie marker, it is called "Sharpie Rub-A-Dub Laundry Marker."
You then just write your child's name ON the garment.
It does not come off in the laundry when washed.
Buying "labels" for clothing is a waste of money... just use the Sharpie pen.
It works.
On any clothing.
It is permanent.
This is what it looks like:

I use "Label Your Stuff" - they are online and iron in. Seem to stay on fairly well. Every once in a while, I find one in the washing machine.

Can you clarify? Im a bit confused...
Are you looking for good clothing brands? Or actual labels that you sew onto your kids items with their name on it?
