How to label kids water bottle?

Is there anything out there that isn't a sticker? The bottle has a little handle so would prefer something to attach to that.

I have no experience with this but if it's got a small handle could you use one of key tag type things you can write a name on and use a split ring to hook it onto the handle

Why don't you want a sticker?

Sharpie? Keyring and fob?

Stickers come off and go all make when they are washed. Ive always used sharpies.

Manky not make

I've had water bottles for years that have been through the dishwasher countless times and the name stickers are still on.

You can get bottles with the name printed on.

You could sew a regular name label in a loop around the handle if not too big.

Tinyme labels are practically indestructible! Mine still look brand new!

Fennellathewitch · 02/08/2021 21:08

4 kids always used Sharpie pen, name on the base, or side.
No hassle no expense, easy written on again if it rubs off.

My two water bottles go through the dishwasher every other day, and the sticky label is fine.

Sharpie I have to rewrite though.

write the name with sharpie on a piece of paper and stick it on the bottle with clear parcel tape.

Tinyme labels here too! Highly recommended for staying power.

scratch it in with something sharp. Or get a bottle that has something like a wooden top, you can get the stainless steel ones with a bamboo top - you can write on the lid in marker.

Try a luggage tag

A bottle band from Personalised Kids Stuff.

Stitkins are pretty strong

DGFB · 02/08/2021 21:15

Stickins here, never go manky or wash off

BuffySummersReportingforSanity · 02/08/2021 21:17

The good stickers go through the dishwasher all the time, nae bother. I have the Mynametags ones.

Splendo · 02/08/2021 21:18

You need stikins labels OP, our water bottles go in the dishwasher every day, and the stickers last longer than the bottles do!

Wolframhart · 02/08/2021 21:18

You can just clip a tag on.

I used to buy these sort of bracelet things that could go on baby bottles or cups. Stretchy silicone things that you can get names printed on. Sort of like the old Livestrong bracelets. It was ages ago before they started making the higher quality name stickers.

If you use fine sand paper on a small patch on the bottom to rough up the surface, then a sarpy takes better and doesn't were off like it can on smooth surfaces.
