Pillow labels

I'm lost on how to create a care label for a throw pillow. The pillow (inside) was purchased at a craft store and the cover was made by me. I'm guessing this is required before I sell. Any suggestions ?

Hi,
I'm sorry I am unable to help you but I am also thinking about selling some of my new textile work on my new store and would also be interested to know about safety/care labels for things!

mine are just pillowcases {no fill} but these are inexpensive and do the trick for me. i just sew them on the inside hem.

Re: Pillow labels

Hi, i plan to simply attach a paper tag to the pillows and write simple instructions for care on them, obviously the label will be removed but i think it's ok to do it this way...

Re: Pillow labels

lisaghove, you'll probably get some other comments on this, but if you're items look like they are geared for anyone under 12 you need special fabric labels that are not to be removed. There are some other great links in this section to find out the specifics of the CPSIA regs.

Re: Pillow labels

Pillows need labeling under the textile act.

Plus you will need the care labels also, which the infor can be found at the ftc site. Just do a search on care labeling.

You might be better to make your cover so that it can be taken off for cleaning, then you just need to label the cover. Leave the label on the pillow cover that came with it.
