bits and bobs
« on: June 05, 2004, 10:31:38 PM »
This might be a long shot, but I need a couple sources...

For our wedding, instead of doing little net bags of almonds or whatever, we are doing little parchment bags that we'll put a poem and some candy in. Someone has found for us a really nice monogram that I want to have made into a rubber stamp which we will then put on an blank white circular stickers - to seal the bags with. I've been doing a little online searching for custom stamp companies but nothing great so far. Ideally, they'd be in the UK to make life a bit easier. Anyone know of such an animal? We also need to source the blank stickers. I think they'd need to be about 1-1/2 or 2 inches across. Square is OK if I can't go round.

Stores are OK too if in the Exeter/Plymouth or Reading/London area.

Thanks!

I just plugged in "custom rubber stampes" in Google and came up with a bunch of links.  Here's a couple.  Looks like you can mail order.

Here's a site that shows you how to make your own:

Best of luck!

Thanks, I must have put something stupid into Google the last time I tried as I didn't find the Hobbicraft site - d'oh!

They have a link to a site called Crafty Brides.  That might help too!

Thanks elle!

Oh, no! There's even a forum I could get addicted to...  ;D

You might also consider a sticker manufacturing company. There are quite a few out there. You send them the graphic and they print up how ever many stickers you want :) Try googling "custom made stickers"

Try E-bay too, I got a couple of sheets of stickers with our wedding pic from a deal I got off there, only cost me £2.50!
