A friend just posted one of those inspirational sayings on Facebook and it was shown using these black labels. For a second, I had a weird flashback. I couldn't even remember what the labels were called, so I looked them up and it was embossing tape. I'm assuming they still make these things, although I know a lot of them are electronic now.
I think I have my green Dymo somewhere in the office. I'll have to get it out and see if I have any tape. A lot of my old photo albums have these labels still stuck to them. It was like a necessary gadget growing up in the 70s. Now, with computers and smart phones, things like this just aren't needed as much. At least not in the home, although I'm sure people still use labeling devices in the workplace. I use mostly Avery labels in my office.
Anyway, it's funny how one little post can bring back a flood of memories!
I remember those. I used to want to play with it but that would have been wasteful. Mom let me do a couple
ReplyDeleteI do remember them, and always wanted one, though I had absolutely no use for it! HA!
ReplyDeleteI always always wanted one of those. They're just so cool!
ReplyDeleteI loved that tape (had no idea it was called embossing tape) when I was a little girl!
ReplyDeleteWhat a blast from the past! I completely forgot about those labels.
