When applying our name labels onto non-clothing items, make sure the surface is clean and dry and that there is no soap residue left behind. Lay the name sticker flat on the smoothest possible part of the item and gently press onto the surface while smoothing out any bubbles or wrinkles. Let the label rest for 24 hours before wear, wash, or play for best results. It helps if the label is fully attached to the surface and the edges are not wrapped and/or cut to fit. Do not cut labels, as this may expose the adhesive and jeopardize the integrity of the bond.
