There are hundreds of thousands of hobbyists in North America and Europe that discovered that they can take their abilities and build a professional enterprise. There are many customers who are searching for locally made textile products and are willing to pay a premium for these items. Crafted products last much longer than cheaply milled items and are well worth the price for customization and added style.
This is where it pays to take the extra time to design out your cloth tag and have a design made that puts a “brand” to your business. It is often the same price, if not cheaper, than the template designs for the fabric tags available at hobby shops or online stores.
In a similar vein, we have seen an explosion of locally made textile pet products. It is imperative that the designer chooses a woven tag, as these products get very heavy use and are exposed to all of the elements.
Whether you’re making doll clothes, pet collars, soft toys, or quilts, you need to find a way to identify yourself as a business. A great set of custom cloth tags can easily do the trick. Roxwell Waterhouse is here to help you find the perfect branding option for your pet and craft products. Read on to see what we can do for you.

How to Pick the Perfect Cloth Tag
When it comes to developing pet products, durability is essential. It is imperative that the designer chooses a woven tag, as these products get very heavy use and are exposed to all of the elements. Soft toys and quilts may not be used as aggressively, but that doesn’t mean that they should have low-end cloth labels. Your ultimate goal should be to keep your brand visible as long as possible.
