Custom labels
To improve our products, we have
custom fabric labels made for fi tted
sheets and cushions by the Dutch
Label Shop (dutchlabelshop.com).
We sew them into the fi tted sheets
to help our customers make their
beds (Photo 10). Picture getting
to the boat late on a Friday night
after a hard week at work and the
kids are tired and cranky. You're
running your hands around the elastic
border trying to fi gure out the shape

These labels really help. Another
tip for your customers is to get
different colored sheets for different
staterooms for ease of identifi cation.
We have also used these labels on some

exterior products, like handrail covers.

your craft. I love how this industry
shares found knowledge with
enthusiasm! Have a great season.
