The tag is still annoying, but the fabric would be worse! A friend of mine had her kid's kindergarten write his name in Sharpie on his brand-new Lands End backpack and matching lunchbox. Without asking. The set that was going to last forever and be passed down to his little brother. She made the school pay for another set.Serifm8https://www.blogger.com/profile/06976964762910714905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5321710438703162714.post-71376379279244562542010-11-19T10:49:04.499-05:002010-11-19T10:49:04.499-05:00I have a brilliant idea for you.

That way you still have the original and correct labels and don't have to deface your precious blanket. Because the compulsive person in me would hate to do that also.<br /><br />Yeah, I named my kid Jennifer/Jenny specifically to avoid these issues, and I get all kinds of crazy spellings. Le sigh.KitchenCathihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04306681016007457946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5321710438703162714.post-70079686149686501382010-11-18T20:46:23.513-05:002010-11-18T20:46:23.513-05:00IMHO, I'd want the tag cut off the blanket. I...IMHO, I'd want the tag cut off the blanket. I'm immune to my name being pronounced/spelled wrong but my kids shouldn't be. (And especially when I'm paying a gazillion dollars for their daycare--is it too much to ask that their names be correct? I don't think so.) It's going to drive you crazy every time you see that tag on your/her favorite blanket. Snip it.<br />I've purchased labels from StuckOnYou.biz They have clothing labels but I only needed adhesive stickers. I do like their site and super cute products. My neighbor uses their clothing labels for both her girls in daycare.Laraf123https://www.blogger.com/profile/13283945251427328960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5321710438703162714.post-32279568781457562892010-11-18T13:27:22.721-05:002010-11-18T13:27:22.721-05:00I have no advice, just wanted to say that that wou...I have no advice, just wanted to say that that would drive me nuts. <br /><br />My maiden name is Arabic and gets misspelled all the freaking time. Drove me mad. Mad I tell you!<br /><br />Gunne's name gets misspelled all the time, too, but mostly because it's Swedish and people have never heard of Gunnar before. They want to spell it Gunner as in the gunner of a battle ship. I may take a leaf from your book and invest in labels before he goes to preschool next year!Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11848143041881649504noreply@blogger.com
