I love the fact that as I watched this I'd just read about the tidal wave incident!! I couldn't help but think to myself that whilst you were saying about being in disney living your best life Emma of the past would be absolutely howling if she knew that the tidal wave was going to happen.xx enjoy your hols bab from another em who lives in brum😘
The labels I used were Miss Wetton so I could use them for you and your sister . I ordered a huge amount when you started school and they lasted until you left at 18! Hand sewed every blooming one of them. X
We don’t have school uniforms for public schools in the states, but I almost wish we did. The stress of making sure everyone is looking “cool” is too much sometimes.
Just a thought, but with the stationary caddy, you may want to turn it round so the pencils are at the front although it may not look as nice, the pencils won't mark up the wall, unless uv got wipe able paint- just a thought xx love how organised you are its so satisfying, despite just completing my alevels (b's in both) I still love anything back to school related - loving the insta updates on Disney hope your having a wonderful, magical time xx
My daughter is at a nursery and I use name labels from funky labels. I find them really great quality and they have lasted really well as I'm constantly washing her clothes (she's 2 😄😣) xx
Lovely video as always Emma, my boys going into year to as well, love the stationary caddy idea!! Definitely going to use that!! Have a lovely rest of the hols xx
This reminded me of when I was in primary school and we had a sports day on the last day before summer holidays. And we used potatoes for the egg and spoon race. And I was sent upstairs a few days before the new school year to organise my stuff. And found a rotten potato in the bottom of my school bag (that no one had noticed in the spare room.) 😂😂 oops
I use My Name Tags, they stick to everything! I've used them for years, they've gone through hot washes and tumble dryer and have not shifted. Just spent today labelling!
Ugh I hear you with the mess in at the bottom of their school bags - a personal favourite of mine is when they NEVER empty their sharpener 😣 or an apple core 😬. My daughter also comes home lovely and clean ....but my son is ready to be lifted at the end of the school day complete with felt tip and grass stains, paint and usually an exploded yoghurt on his clothes. 😂 Boys must have more fun.
Loved this video 😍 need to get my s**t together & get organized for back to school , we live in Spain so no uniform but we do need to name , I just use a permanent pen & write on the label of the item , our kids have 3 months off for the summer so don’t go back till mid September 😱 you have inspired me 🤩
Yes, we have to label EVERYTHING for Spanish schools. I use name labels for utensils, stationary... BUT I recommend a stamp for clothes; you get everything done in a couple of minutes and I only needed to get the ink replaced after 5 years! I use one for each child (brand: Mine) so I don't have to change tiny letters around 😉 Bought from Amazon x
I just buy a labelling pen and write their names on the labels. The names last for ages. My boys are in years 5 and 2 this term and I've never had to go over their names again and they never lost anything (cross fingers!)
There’s a company called stamptastic that do stamps you can personalise with the child’s name & an emoji which makes labelling the kids uniform dead easy!
We do have school uniforms in the States. At least where I live (Southern CA) there are many public schools that require uniforms. Mainly for elementary, then when in high school they have free choice of outfits.
Hi Emma, it looks like you're having a great holiday . Where can I find the link to the stationery bucket ? I think that will be really useful. thank you X
Tiny me do the free sheet of labels and just pay the p&p - they are the best labels, the iron on ones are worth it. Annnd get the clear sticky labels to go over the normal sticky ones and they last in the shoes too. I LOVE them. I may also be a sock labeller too... colour matched so we have the same ‘pair’ together 🙈 I may not repeat that again when these socks are outgrown, but it gives me a strange satisfaction 😂
i remember when i was in primary (i’m currently 19) clarke’s shoes were like £40+! this was back in like 2008 as well! AND they never had my size. they’d always measure me and i be like ‘we don’t have your size but we have these instead’ what was the point in measuring my feet if i wasn’t gonna wear shoes of that size!
Love the stationary holder but the pencils against your white wall is stressing me out! You dont want dots of coloured pencil on your kitchen wall when the kids are trying to pull a pencil out. 😂
In America we dont need to label and my kids dont wear uniforms at all. My son's sweater went missing in preschool and a mum posted a picture of her son on Facebook and he had on the sweater. It must have got mixed up and sent home with wrong kid. I didnt ask for it back though because his family was a bit in need and I didnt have the heart. Abd it looked really cute on him.
Kids in Belgium don't wear school uniform which means I need to label E V E R Y T H I N G . . . . . Luckily I found a local shop that sells custom embroidered name tags :-)

Emily Collis this made me laugh so much!!!!

Melissa Bell OHHHHHH sounds a good un!

I’m just waiting for my kids school uniform load from Sainsbury’s!! Oh I will love washing and putting labels on all of it!! Xxx
If your going to Disneyland I reccomend bits from primark
Even though my kids are 31 & 27 I had flashbacks of sewing on all those Cash labels. There were no stick ones back then!
Easy to name I get my labels from and theyve been on all year, even on drinks bottles and lunch boxes and they havent come off once xx
Hope you’re having a great holiday!! X
Tiny me run the offer for labels. Love them as the designs are really nice. Hope you are enjoying your holiday
Love them too! They last really well. I get my two boys labels each year when they do their offers so I've never paid for more than postage
Selene Mason we are thanks!
My mum used to hand sew all of our labels!
Did marks and Spencer’s let you take the skirts back? #askingthebig questions. Loved the blog by the way 👍😂
laura verrelli YES!!!!
Haha brilliant :) I can sleep tonight
I can listen to your voice all day.☺
Great organization!
My son is 8 and loves to bring home any sequins or shiny things. Perhaps a magpie in a past life?!
Im a mum of 4 had to get so much school stuff brought storage boxers to put it all in one for each child till i have time to sort their warobes out x

We use a Stamptastic . Stamps the name on clothes with ink and lasted all year.

I'm a Teaching assistant and there is nothing worse than finding that one lunchbox left during the six weeks holidays!
My uncle makes the fruit of the loom t shirts so I got them for free when I was in primary x

We use a permanent marker to put initials on the tag
I bought a stamp this year from stamptastic and its excellent never labelled uniform so quickly 👍!!

Marta G i stamp mine too! It’s amazing. I have 5 children and just stamp our surname into then x
Marta G amazing thanks! And hello to you in Spain!
We use Stikins. They are great and last all year x

as soon as you said about the guinea pig, both of mine stopped munching their hay 🤣🤣
There she is the star of the show!.. lucy 😍😂 xx
Check out a Clarks outlet ( I refuse to pay full price for Clark’s school shoes) there is one in a place called Bicester village, Oxfordshire.

Type in m design storage case in amazon. That’s where I found mine x

Love your lip colour what are you using please?
Quick tip to make the pens last longer - is to store them tip down so the ink can run down and they don't dry out so quickly 🙂
Little dec goes to my school
This lip colour really suits you Emma x
My Name Tags usually do the letter initial discount on Facebook x I find they stick fantastically! I’ve never had an issue with those x
Brummy mummy I love your halls you should do a room makeover and tour to Erin's room
Who else started itching their head when Emma mentioned nits?! 😆
I’m terrible I just write my kids names on their uniform labels in biro 😱😂 if it wears out I just wrote it again 😂😂
Ethan is so cute idec
i remember when i was in primary (i’m currently 19) clarke’s shoes were like £40+! this was back in like 2008 as well!

Love the stationary holder but the pencils against your white wall is stressing me out! You dont want dots of coloured pencil on your kitchen wall when the kids are trying to pull a pencil out. 😂
Don't keep the pencils/crayons side of the caddy next to the wall or you'll end up with marks on the wall!
Jade Kenyon lesson learnt three minutes after this video was filmed. I had to get the rubber on the wall!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂 oh dear! 😂
Great video, I just use a sharpie and write their name on the label, that way it can't come off xxx
EYE MAKE UP 😍 X
In America we dont need to label and my kids dont wear uniforms at all. My son's sweater went missing in preschool and a mum posted a picture of her son on Facebook and he had on the sweater. It must have got mixed up and sent home with wrong kid. I didnt ask for it back though because his family was a bit in need and I didnt have the heart. Abd it looked really cute on him.
👍
Why don'you just get a lable maker ?
Emma Arthurs I have a label maker but you need special ones that don’t come off in the wash. The are like magic!
@@brummymummyof2 my daughter is starting kindergarden so that's why I asked maybe I should opt for stickers vs lable maker?
Stamptastic! Just do your family’s surname and can pass uniform down x
Got my boys those shoes. Hoping the big rubberised toe will mean theyll last 🤞
