I need some help. I need either some fragile tape or big fragile labels. Apart from Amazon any idea where to get. I’m obviously working to quite a tight budget as have paid for passport and the £100 for the walker cover.
In the good old days the local post office would have been the place to go. Sadly no longer. I need them/it to stick to material.

I have looked on internet and fragile print tape that will reliably stick to fabric doesn't seem to be a thing. What is it for?

Something like this maybe:

If the walker folds down a suggestion may be to put it in a large zipped plastic bag as a fragile sticker will then attach to the plastic bag.
