Think I'll give the Avery labels a try as I have two inkjet printers, both dye based, but won't hurt to experiment
ink jet will rub off if damp but just make sure jars are clean before you label. I created these last night but now I now realise that I will have to add a bit more info and make the weight larger, apart from that think they work fine, I created them using the avery software label size was 98.1x32 i think, but it is a fairly standard label size 14 per sheet £15 sheets for £5.
With regard to images have a look at microsoft free clip art, not a lot there, but not bad either
Just wondering though If I have on the label Cornish Honey is that sufficient instead of product of the UK?

If you are personally selling it - please put exactly what you like on the label and forget about this EU Stasi jackboot on your neck crap!
I have 1lb in bold with 454 in smaller print underneath so peeps can compare with stuff they've seen in waitrose. No 'produce of UK' no 'lot number' no 'best by' etc
It's depressing that the BBKA are trying to force us all into the euromould...someone brought me back a jar of honey from Greece and it had none of the EEC propoganda on the label, the text translated into something like "Honey from beehives in my Grandmothers back garden"
I feel very strongly about this, 99% of beekeepers are not commercial and shouldn't be bound by EU legislation

There must be no space between figures and 'g' in weight indication, grammes must apeear before lb.

Keep up at the back! - the end penalty is imprisonment for non payment of the £5,000 fine, a la pensioners not paying their TV licence fines.
