Other than designer brands, we have to admit to cringing at labels. “Hockey Mom?” Maybe we’re just enthusiastic about our child on skates. “Attachment Parent?” Perhaps we don’t mind slinging our baby around.
When it comes to Colour Me Family, though, we’re all over it. These custom made labels sketch cartoon versions of our kin for every recipient to see. So instead of the ho-hum address sticker, our friends get to see caricatures of our family on every card or letter we send out ($19.99 for 60 labels). Here’s how it works: We create faces in the order we would like them to appear on the label. Everything from Dad’s skin colour to Big Sister’s pig tails can be specified here. We can even choose fun clothes patterns like fatigues or accessories like glasses. Every person is named in the label and we get to type in a personal message like “A Letter from the Perez Household”.
When our friends get a load of these labels, they may brand us as “Super Mom.” We’re fine with that.
