The Borrowers

Did you ever lend something out and not get it back? I think this has happened to everyone. I’ve decide to take action…I am going to try to make sure this won’t happen again.

I don’t mind if a paperback book isn’t returned to me. I love to pass those around. But a hardback book or cookbook…thats another story. I am going to get these lovely bookplates from Pink Loves Brown to identify anything that I want back.

These bumpy labels can go on anything (water bottles, sippy cups, flashlights, etc). It makes it hard for someone to walk off with your water bottle!

An industrial sharpie. Thats what I need. I love Sharpies…but have to get one of the industrial versions! I can write my name on anything!

Stick-on labels for clothing, shoes, handbags, etc. No need to sew! Very handy.

Sunny Day Tags would be perfect for luggage, sports bags, diaper bags, lunch bags….I could go on and on! At only $5 per tag I might have to pick out some for the girls.

For $9.99 even my golf balls can be labeled. Do you think I will get them back when they drag the lake if my name is on them?

I do realize that if you really want to make sure that you get something back – don’t lend it out. But my mom always taught me to share. Sharing is good, keeping what someone shares with you is not. Look around, I’m sure we can all find something in our house that needs returned to its owner.
