Personalized lunch packs: Thoughts?

[floridamommy]

Hi. I want to get my DD who is 14 months a personalized lunch pack for her mommy's morning out days (2 days a week this year and will be 3 days a week in fall) since they feed her a lunch that I pack. They are really stressing the importance of EVRYTHING being labeled.

I have been looking at the following 3 packs...curious if anyone has any opinions on the ones below or any other suggestions. Thanks in advance!! Heather

Pottery Barn Kids: $16.00 + $6.00 for personalization (free shipping through February)

Land's End: $16.00 (with personalization - only black thread color)) + $4.95 shipping

Also...is it me or are almost all of the companies that sell vinyl/washable name labels for sippies & plastic food containers based outside of the US? A lot of their prices seem kind of high for stick-on name labels. So far...I keep coming back to identikid and stuckonyou.biz. Any others you really like (or are far cheaper???)

I got some vinyl labels on ebay. You can do a search for waterproof name labels. They were pretty cheap, and don't last forever (the name starts to wear off in the dishwasher, may last longer if you handwash). You can also buy blank waterproof labels (address label size) and print them on your computer, I think I will do that next time around.

I've been using the labels from Stuckonyou.biz for the past 2 years and have been happy with them. We have an older model of the Land's End lunch bag (although it is not personalized) to take to MDO. It is the right size for a sandwich container and a sippy cup and a small container or something else.

Have you seen these? I have ordered a backpack from this seller and had a great transaction. They come in two sizes.

You would have to label this one yourself (on the handle or inside?) but the patterns are so cute I just have to post. :)
