It’s funny.  The exact same day I was contacted by Oliver’s Labels to review their product line, one of my friends was saying she wished she could invent a way to get her son’s name on everything he has because she always ends up sending him to a friends house to play or to school only to have him come home with something missing.

My thing is that my boys are five and three but they’re basically the same size.  They’re just at that point where their clothes still have to be separated but I can hardly tell the difference so one ends up tripping over his jammy pants and the other looks like I should put those glasses on him with tape in the middle because they stop short about an inch and a half about his ankles but he insists those are the pants he wants to wear to Summer Camp.

Well in sweeps Oliver’s Labels to help laundry and everything else in my world that much easier.  I’m talking everything, they make labels of all kinds.  Clothing labels, shoe, bag and mini labels for just about anything you can think of.   With my attention span sometimes, I should stick one on my forehead. 

They also have something truly awesome.  A system called Found-it™.  It’s an Oliver’s Labels exclusive, FREE online Lost-and-Found system. They give you the option of printing a  tracking system code on your labels for your big time items like clothing and things you really want to make sure you get back. This unique code connects you to your item via your email address.  I actually considered getting some for myself because I’ve lost a thing or ten (they’d be cool for your wallet, cell phone and everything else you might forget while rushing around), and it would be especially nice if a good Samaritan decided something I lost was uncool enough to try to return to me .

The way the system works is that when someone finds a lost item they will be prompted to go to a special page on the website  with instructions to enter the code on the label We then match you to your Found-it™ tracking system code and send you a notification email right away. Oliver’s Labelss acts as an intermediary between you and the finder so you never have to share any of your personal information!

Even more impressive is that  Oliver’s Labels came up with a way to help keep your children safe by creating safety wristbands  to give you peace of mind when your child is visiting a theme park, in the mall or participating in a class field trip. Safety wristbands are one-time-use bracelets that are lightweight yet durable. They’re attractive and provide your personal contact information should your child wander away from you or the group. You can adjust them to any kid-size wrist. Made of high-tech material that feels like paper but is durable like plastic. They’re waterproof, scuff-proof, tear-resistant, high-performance material with super-strong adhesive closure and high quality, full-color printing. Made to be long-lasting in a huge range of environments.

Be sure to check out the various label types they have available and I’m especially impressed with the pricing and the amount of labels you can get.  For just $20.00, you’ll get 100 mini-labels for all those little things that might get lost.   Head on over to their website for all the information you need and check out what they have to offer.  The second after I had the opportunity to review this product, I sent a text to my friend to let her know someone beat her to it.  We laughed at the irony that I was offered the review the same day but when I told her about what they have to offer, she admitted they schooled her by taking “her idea” and blasted out some serious awesome.
