I see people here talking about replacing the original t shirt label with your own custom label. My question is how do you sew your label on??

Re: how do you sew back on your label?? You either need to know how to sew, or have someone sew them in.
I wouldn't do it on a trial and error basis.
It's not very expensive to pay someone to sew your labels in. 30 cents to 50 cents.

Re: how do you sew back on your label?? Try to get someone local so you dont have to worry about shipping cost. I went to the local cleaners and they were more than happy to do it.

Re: how do you sew back on your label?? I would try to find someone local.
Try placing an ad on craigslist. It worked for me. I got pretty good response. Toni tried the cleaners. That may work for you as well.
You don't know until you ask.

Re: how do you sew back on your label?? I live in a pretty small town, and we have alot of skilled folks all around town, not running out of store fronts. A lady across from my church makes custom bridal gowns out of her house. I think if I needed this service, I would be able to place an ad at the local grocery store (it's like our help wanted bulletin board, haha, small town) and find a very good seamstress to pay per piece. Alot depends on where you live. I hope you find someone you work well with.

Re: how do you sew back on your label?? Going rate at a factory in SoCal that specializes in this is .20 to remove the label (doesn't have to be tear away) and sew in two labels.
