[Nfb-krafters-korner] pen friend help please

[Blindhands at aol.com]

I maybe need one of these friends.  Can someone share some info like  where 
did you get it?, how much does it cost?  What extra lables or label  types 
would be best to order with the first one?  
 
I hate when you get something new and they give you a sample and you then  
start off and really figure out how to use these adaptive things and then 
you  run out of the samples and come to a screaching halt and stuck.  Please 
let  me know the most common you use and what you use them for, please

Hi  Terry,

There are endless possibilities for the pen friend.
When I  was taking the safety pin beading classes I used plastic bags to 
store my  completed pins.
Each bag had a pen friend tag to tell me whether it was the  A pins or B 
pins etc. my tag also told
me how many pins were in the bag.  Once my project was completed I would 
use the same bags with the
same  labels and simply record over the tag with the new information for 
the pins on  the next
project.
I also use plastic bags with pen friend labels to keep  medication 
information. Medication name,
strength, when and how many to  take, as well as number of refills left. 
When a new bottle comes in
I  record over the existing tag with the new information. 

I also have my  dish washer buttons labeled and a reminder on the furnace 
telling me when I  last
installed a filter so I know if it is time to get another. You can go  on 
and on with it.
I purchased extra labels when I originally purchased the  pen friend and 
have not yet needed to get
more.

Your idea of using  the labels with the rubber bands then placing pen 
friend labels on them is  good,
because it allows them to be re-used. Whether it is for yarn or even  cans 
and boxes of food.  Cathy
