Name tags for clothing

I am looking for reasonably priced name tags to iron onto or sew onto clothing, that last through washing, any recommendations where I could buy them from?

    they do ones you just stick on. they are coping brilliantly with washing, drying and ironing on dd's school uniform.

    I got two lots from mynametags.com - they're really great! I was a bit wary of stick on labels, partly because I didn't know how well they'd last but also because it feels like you're 'supposed' to sew them on - that's what mums do at the end of the holidays! They have stayed stuck on perfectly on a variety of items - shoes, clothes, school bags etc - and the kids loved choosing their own designs. They are so much easier than sewing or ironing too!

    Dymo letratag label maker with iron on tape. It works marvels and is extremely cost effective if you have more than one child, a lot of clothes and have a number of school years left. Plus you can put it to other uses with the paper and plastic tapes. Initial outlay for tapes and machine will be around £32.

  • Have only just come across your post and thought I would recommend Stikins name tags. They can be personalised to each child's name and you simply stick the name tag onto the washing label of the garment - no sewing or ironing involved!

    I bought mine from Amazon http://www.amazon.co.uk/Personalised-Stickers-STIKINS%C2%AE-Childrens-Labelling/dp/B008JZR9K2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1417185299&sr=8-1&keywords=stickins+name+labels

    Hope this helps.

    I used haldondistributionuk on eBay - think it was £2.99 for about 50 name tags that iron on. I've used em since September and they seem robust. I will definitely use them again :)
  • My tip would be, invest in a decent laundry pen (under £5 from places like John Lewis). I handwrite all names directly onto the label - and is honestly one of my favourite inventions!

    I used a permanent sharpie marker on my son's school uniform (the labels) and that seems to be working well.
