The advantage of the Teflon tape and the metal color labels is that they stay pinned to the garment in the washer and dryer. A blind person does not need help to reattach the labels after the clothing is washed. Other audible systems that can be used to keep on clothes while being laundered are the PenFriend, Touch Memo, Sherlock, and those made by EnvisionAmerica and some bar code apps for cell phones. The common factor is that the label material can go through the washer and dryer without ruining the label.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Hope this makes sense.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Best,\<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Terrie<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> Nfbk [mailto:nfbk-bounces@nfbnet.org] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Nickie Pearl<br><b>Sent:</b> Saturday, January 19, 2013 11:00 AM<br><b>To:</b> NFB of Kentucky Internet Mailing List<br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [Nfbk] Teflon Clothing Labeling Tape<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black'>Hello, At this time I do not need to use any sort of tagging system for my cloths, but I do have any idea that may be less expensive until you figure out exactly what will be best for you.
