In addition, mold often grows on the spilled wine, and after a few weeks an unsightly residue can form on the bottle. All wine should have a label permanently attached to each bottle. Producing custom wine labels with a home computer is easy and fun. If a scanner and a color printer are available, a variety of art work can be incorporated into the label design, and very professional looking labels can be produced easily. Some glues wrinkle light weight papers, so labels are best printed on medium weight paper.
Some bond papers seem to work well.
Papers can be tested by wetting one side of a sheet with water, and then carefully observing the paper for a few minutes. Papers that stretch and wrinkle excessively will probably will not be suitable for labels. If the layout is carefully done, the labels will be easy to cut with a paper cutter, and little paper will be wasted. A few extra labels should be made when the labels are printed. Capsules and labels can be applied when the bottles are clean and dry.
