New basic & pickle canning jar labels

I wish I could create new labels more often, but it seems hard to find the time! Often I end up creating new designs in batches, but then it takes me a while to do the photography & printing. Next up will be some vintage-inspired labels since I've had several requests... hopefully to come next month. Please vote in the poll on the right to let me know what type of label designs you'd like to see in my shop. Or you can comment here to let me know if you're looking for a specific type of label.

We like Swiss Chard

I'm happy to report that we like Swiss Chard, which is a good thing considering that I planted 2 rows of it in my garden without ever eating it before. It wasn't a huge leap of faith really because I assumed it would be similar enough to Spinach that we would like it. I planted Rhubarb Swiss Chard which is really pretty with the red stems. Next year I might try the Bright Lights variety with multicolored stems.

So far we've eaten it raw in salads, in soup with wild rice & turkey, & steamed. I searched for different recipes online & found plenty of similar ways to cook Swiss Chard. Last week I sauteed vidalia onions & garlic in bacon drippings, then added the stems before the leaves since they take a little longer to cook. Once it all cooked down, I topped it off with toasted pine nuts, lemon juice, & parmesan cheese. And this morning we had a swiss chard omelet with the glazed onions. Pretty tasty!

New raspberry jam & return jar canning labels

New to the shop are "Return Jar" canning labels & Raspberry Jam canning labels.

I realized I needed to do something to get my sister's attention in order for her to return my jars to me. So I made a label that said "I want my jar back dangit!" AND it worked! She's given me most of my empties back from last year's apple bounty :) She doesn't can, so I'm not sure why she was hoarding my jars. 


I have 2 other quotes for the labels too. They're a little more polite than "I want my jar back dangit!" A common complaint from most canners is how many jars they lose each year to folks who don't return them. So hopefully these labels will make returns a little easier :)


Also new to the shop is a cute raspberry jam label. I'll probably eventually make these for black raspberry too. I took a lot of photos next to the raspberry bushes in my backyard.
