My first label heh

[Keln]

Just finished my wine, so I made a label for it. Voila:

and one for my mead which is almost done:

 

[Lou]

recipe is spelled with only 1 i.....

 

[Spyk'd]

Is it Spring already? Ah, just send me one!



Maybe some bee and/or honey motif?

 

[Keln]

recipe is spelled with only 1 i.....

And so it is. Didn't catch that thx. At least I didn't print it yet

The top one looks like Ireland. I really like the bottom pic. Where did you get it?

 

[Keln]

Well, the first one is indeed a picture of Ireland. I just looked for that exact kind of picture and found it on a website that had random images of Ireland. Instead of the usual French "Vin Blanc" I wrote it in Irish Gaelic instead.

The second one I found with google images search. I was originally looking for a good castle picture, which I didn't find. So then I looked for a picture of an old Brewer, and I didn't find any good ones of that either. So on a whim, I typed in "Alchemist" and whamo. That was one of the pictures that came up. It was a painting done by Adriaen Jansz van Ostade in 1661 and is named simply "Alchemist".

The valley looks like one I drove through that's located south of Dublin. I know it's probably not it, but similar.

I like searching for Middle Ages pics also. I find them interesting.

I bought a large copper "plate?" in Bamberg, Germany that was made in Belgium that has a town scene with people partying. It's about 30 inches across.

The line drawings are also good for labels.

mmm...reci-pie....

 

[Keln]

yer killin me. You just HAD to make me change the label shown in here to the correct one...


nitpickers...

 

[homebrewer_99]

You can also drop the "Honey" out of the title since it's followed by "mead."
O/C Mead...

 

[Keln]

Except most people who will see this bottle don't know what mead is made of unles I explain it to them. Besides, I'm specifying honey type, and since there's a big difference between Clover and Clover Honey as ingredients, it's somewhat necessary and called for.

So nyaah. :rockin:
