[Nfb-krafters-korner] yarn tags

[Powers, Terry (NIH/OD/DEAS) [E]]

I had said earlier that I was going to write about my idea on yarn tags.
The e-mail title says yarn tags.
These name tags are clear plastic, smaller than an index card and I
think I will be able to braille on them.  I think I will be able to use
the clips sold in the store or knot a rubber band through the hole where
the clip goes and use the tags for labeling yarn and items to sell.
They should be able to be reusable and the idea should be usable in
foods and other areas.

What are you talking about Terry?  I must have missed something.

I have not had a chance to try this yet, but it should work. I bought a
few packs of clear plastic name tags and clips. I am going to try to
braille on the plastic cards and either use a clip or knot a rubber band
through the hole at the top. I can then put the rubber band around the
yarn label or clip the label to maybe a zip lock with my item in it.
These will be able to be used over and over again. I am also thinking of
using an expandable file to cary around my work. I can label the pockets
by color and use the clips.

Let you know how well the braille, soon. If these work, they might be a
good idea for food and other items.
