I like to make my scripts more unique, so I don’t have to constantly be searching through a slew of identical ugly orange plastic cylinders. I use colored glass ~~hats~~ jars, and I make custom labels. (I also label other stuff, but these are fun to get creative with).

Looks nice!

What is the design on the bottom right mean? Is that a image of a map?
And can you share a picture of these glass "hats"? I'm curious.

I got a Brother QL-600 about a year ago. P-Touch editor 5.4 feels dated, but it works.

Here are some labels I threw together while I was roughly organizing things, I'm still new at it. I stuck one sticker on each of the four sides of the boxes.

Sorry, hats was supposed to be jars. I got autocorrectifucked. The image on the bottom right is just for decorative fun. Is inspired by/based on the design in that big map viewer they use in the 1986 film Aliens. I enjoy a cassette-punk vibe for my label style.

Your labels are cool! How big are they? How’s do you like that label maker, and was it expensive? What file types does it use?

Ahh ok haha I see, I like it! Looks great. I think I paid around 60 eur two years ago. I guess the filetype is .lbx but it's just p-touch editor with some generic graphics they have in there. 6.5cm x 6cm are the dimensions. What other labels have you printed?
