4 essential tips when designing custom clothing labels

If you need to design custom clothing labels, then there is a lot of directions you can go in, each are going to have their own advantages/disadvantages, especially when you are comparing cost vs. quality.

Whether it be something that is sewn onto the fabric or is simply a hang tag designed to be torn off by a shopper, there is a subtle and important artistry to the design of custom clothing labels that is worth studying.

The following will examine some tips you should employ when designing your custom clothing labels.

1. The basic essentials

Of course, when you are designing custom clothing labels, you need to make sure that you meet the basic requirements that most consumers come to expect. These are:

Your brand name: Your business or brand name. Ensure that you include a trademark/copyright symbol if you are registered with one.

Your web address: This is where you should include the URL of your business website. Including “www” may not be necessary if your site redirects without it and will save space/look nicer on your custom clothing label.

Your business number: The phone number consumers can contact your business with. Area/country codes will be necessary when shipping to overseas markets.

Manufacturing ‘made in’ details: There are legal regulations in certain countries that demand you disclaim where the item was manufactured. For example, in Australia, The Australian Consumer Law (ACL) applies. If made locally, you would definitely want to include that fact, as it is a reason someone might choose your item over a competitor who has their products made overseas.

Sizing: This can represent an extra expense since you would need multiple custom clothing labels for each size but can lend more legitimacy to your brand.

2. What about care instructions?

Many fashion brands will include care instruction tags on their products so that consumers know how to make them last and protect their investment. The obvious benefit of this is that consumers will enjoy the product for longer and it is a show of good faith by not hoping they ruin it to buy another.

According to Dutch Label Shop when you are designing custom clothing labels, it can be worthwhile to include care instructions that detail the washing/drying steps necessary to preserve the item’s original quality as long as possible.

3. What about hang tags?

Another potentially worthwhile investment during the design of your customer clothing labels is the inclusion of hang tags. These flashy cards are designed to be removed by consumers after they make a purchase but are great at being eye-catching and acting as a small billboard on retail shelves.

A well-constructed hang tag can act as a great way to further legitimise your brand, since most of the big clothing manufacturers you are competing with will use them as well. In the creation of these hang tags, you want to make sure your brand’s logo and colour scheme are prominent so that it become instantly recognizable to repeat consumers and builds valuable mindshare.

4. What material should I use?

This is mainly going to come down to your cost/quality breakdown, as there are a few different material options that you can go with. Some materials you might use for custom clothing labels are going to be more appropriate than others depending on the environment the items are going to be worn in.

Woven: This is the most popular type of material used without any arguments, with the subvariety of ‘woven damask’ being the most widely used option. The soft satin gives a very professional look and feel, although you can go with woven taffeta to save some money at the cost of quality.

Printed: Modern technology allows for finely crafted custom clothing labels to be constructed by digitally printing logos/text onto materials like cotton, Tyvek, polyester, satin and more. This is also the preferred method to construct high-quality hang tags.

PVC: PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is a soft and bendable material that is also great for your product tags. This material is best for items that are designed to be worn outdoors as they are durable against moisture/heat from the outdoors.

Conclusion

As you can see, there’s a lot you need to think about when designing your custom clothing labels so that you can get the best effective use out of them.

The influence of social media on politics

The influence of social media on politics

Ever since the mainstream use of social media became a reality it has become an integral part of many people’s everyday lives. With social platforms serving as a new space for people to share and argue opinions it’s no wonder that the world of politics has been affected by their rise use.

Politicians and voters alike have all used social media in different capacities in order to express their views and gather support. Every political party has their own page where they upload campaign messages and engage with their support base.

Many adults will proudly boast their political views online whereas it may have been less obvious in the real world.

Let’s discuss some of the way in which social media has influenced politics.

Increasing Political Awareness

While many people claim to be ignorant or uncaring of the political climate, it’s harder and harder for users of social media to avoid exposure to it.  Social media channels are littered with political opinions and debates from people who may have otherwise not participated.

The fact that people are not speaking their opinions in close proximity to one another makes them more confident to speak their minds or be deliberately inflammatory. Devices such as hashtags make it easier to bring exposure to and magnify the debate on particular political issues.

The wide reach and accessibility of social media has allowed more and more everyday people to become politically active in different capacities. Social media’s facilitation of viral trends helps to push political campaigns into the public consciousness, especially as more and more people habitually use these platforms.

Communication with Voters

Political parties have not underestimated the power of social media in marketing their cause. This medium allows politicians to maintain public profiles that imply their active engagement with their support bases.

Not only do social media platforms allow politicians to communicate more directly with voters, but to specifically target messages to them. Social media allows for targeting based on demographics that make sure a relevant message reaches the right people.

Controversy

Social media has made the spreading of controversy faster than ever. Misinformation and scandals are quickly spread on the constantly updating news feeds of people all around the world.

There are countless examples of politicians being implicated in scandals that would never have come to light if it wasn’t for social media. More recently some politicians have famously used social media as their primary means of addressing issues rather than relying on more formal statements.

Social media is an incredibly powerful tool in the spreading and dissemination of information in the modern age. The world of politics has been significantly influenced by the widespread use of social media and it’s likely this influence will only continue to grow.

4 things to consider before stepping into the property market

4 things to consider before stepping into the property market

For many Australians getting their first steps onto the ever growing property ladder seems to be getting a harder and harder task, especially for Generation Y starting right at the bottom.

Surging property prices in major capital cities, influx of foreign buyers and the continual development of in high rise apartments has left many Australians wondering if attaining a home with a backyard and picketed fence still achievable.

Yet, in an ever changing market, it is important to plan, prepare and find a solution and explore alternative ways to get into your first property; here are the top four things to consider before stepping into the property market.

Failing to plan, is planning to planning to fail

As many current homeowners would know, saving for a deposit is generally the hardest task when it comes to getting your feet onto the property ladder. Many Gen Y’s currently have no budget or saving plan in place in order to get that 20% down payment that most lenders need in order to issue to home loan.

As stated numerous times in the media, the “smashed avocado” generation is solely focused on living in the current moment, rather than focusing on their financial future, and more comfortable with living pay cheque to pay cheque than living with their financial means.

Nothing gives lenders greater confidence at home loan application time, than an individual or couple that have a regular savings plan in place, with a good debt repayment history, and surplus cash flow at the end of every fortnight/month.

Check your credit history

There is no worse feeling that coming up to home loan application time, all the boxes are ticked off in the right places, only to find out that their is a black mark on you or your partners credit history. Small things that might seem insignificant at this current moment in time can really hurt down the line.

Moving address’s frequently and forgetting to inform the mobile or internet company, not paying your final electricity and gas bill while renting or simply having too many late fees on your credit card or too many credit cards or personal loan applications are all major red flags for banks and lenders when they are assessing home loans.

Always make sure before you apply for any home loan, that your credit history is clear and if not, what steps you need to do in order to make sure it gets cleared.

Consider buying to invest

Buying a property as an investment rather than an owner occupier is another alternative way to get on to the property ladder. Once you have a deposit, you can then secure a tenant who will make constant contributions towards your mortgage via regular rental payments.

This option can be viable if have surplus income after your other expenses have been paid, so that you may also make extra contributions to pay your mortgage of twice as fast.

“Location, location, location”

Although it might be said time and time again; but most Australians don’t pay attention to the most important factor when investing in real estate: location.

The true value of property doesn’t lie in the fixtures, furniture and finishes of a property at all, so don’t be impressed by the Calcutta marble or the black stained timber floors, the only variable that matters to property valuation is the amount of square metres that you own in a specific postcode.

Understanding that the value of location is priceless, that’s why in some cases properties can have different valuations on opposite sides of the same road. Always look for high growth rate and high rental return areas.

Finally, the location you decide to invest or live in must be close proximity to transport, schools, and shops as well as areas of leisure. Try to focus on areas maximum 20-30 minutes from the CBD.

Don’t over extend yourself

With interest rates in Australia being at all-time low levels, it’s important for many Australians not to extend themselves and borrow at their maximum borrowing power capacity. It’s important to remember the on-going costs that comes along with property ownership and is generally forgotten about when looking for a home.

Costs such as council rates or strata fees, water bills, gas & electricity and home insurance can really stretch the budget especially if your home loan repayment takes up more than 2/3’s of your net income.

As interest rates are currently between 3-4% across most lenders, many people have not factored in what their home loan repayment would look like if their variable interest rate jumped up to over 7%, which is not uncommon as interest rates jumped up into the 17% range in the 1980’s

Death toll rising after Egypt mosque attack

Death toll rising after Egypt mosque attack

The death toll of the devastating attack on an Egyptian mosque on Friday has now risen over the 300 mark sending shock throughout the nation and the world. The bombing and gunfire attack marks the deadliest attack in Egypt’s modern history as 305 have been confirmed dead with 27 of those children whilst an additional 128 are said to be wounded.

During a service at the al Rawdah mosque in Bir al Abed a bomb was detonated before approximately 40 militants stormed the building and opened fire as hundreds fled in an attempt to avoid the attack.

According to the public prosecutor’s office the men were carrying flags representing the Islamic State. The Egyptian authorities have had a running battle against a stubborn Islamic State group in Egypt’s  Sinai region.

Witnesses have said that the militants had 40 men set up around the site and whilst many stormed the building to open fire, some remained outside.

Those gunmen who remained outside were seen picking off anyone who had managed to escape and even opened fire on the ambulances as well. It was initially said that there were a total of 235 deaths with 109 wounded before the number was confirmed to be higher yesterday.

The attack has send shockwaves throughout the world with the Australian Prime Minister Malcom Turnbull sending his condolences and highlighting his willingness to help eliminate the future of terrorist organisations and acts.

Mr Turnbull said, “We are resolute in our determination to defeat Islamist terrorism and keep Australians safe” in response to the attack.

In a joint statement by opposition leader Bill Shorten and Labor’s foreign affairs minister Penny Wong they stated their passion to maintain freedom of speech and a united world saying, “an attack on any place of religion is an attack on freedom”

The mosque attack could mark a change in tactics for the Sinai militants who have predominantly targeted troops, police and Christian churches. The supposed change could be due to the number of ‘Sufis’ worshipping at the attacked mosque who admire shrines and saints seen as the equivalent of worshipping gods to the Islamists.

The Sinai division of the Islamic state is one of the few remaining following the failure of its caliphate in Syria and Iraq through defeat by US-backed military operations. National security has long been a key pillar behind the public support of President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and he has vowed the attack will “not go unpunished”.

He called an emergency meeting with the defence, its ministers and intelligence chief immediately following the attack.

The location of the attack in North Sinai, in northern Egypt, has long been a challenge for military and Egyptian security forces because of the smuggling that occurs in the region. The attack on the region further challenges defences forces of the nation to maintain the security levels demanded and employed by Sisi.

The continued safety and security of the nation may influence the results at the election set to be early next year in which Sisi is expected to run for another 4-year term.

Music can help the elderly thrive

Most people love to listen to music, whether it be at work or while doing the housework. But the benefits of music go far beyond just listening to your favorite songs. It’s a powerful resource that few of us have tapped into, but that is changing.

There is a wealth of programs such as Kindermusik already available for infants and preschoolers which provide stimulating music combined with movement. These programs influence a child’s brain development and language skills.

Research shows that those who have music as a part of their life from an early age are better at maths and literacy. Until recently, there was nothing out there for seniors.

An organisation called Music and Memory have conducted research into the benefits of music for older individuals which will revolutionise the way carers and staff interact with the elderly. They have created a program to help the elderly in nursing homes regain their quality of life.

The Music and Memory began in the united States, but has since expanded to Australia and other countries. The aim of Music And Memory is to provide a custom playlist of songs that are meaningful to the elderly patient. Caregivers and staff are trained using a series of webinars on the best techniques to administer these playlists to gain the maximum benefits.

The power of music goes far beyond your emotional and mental state. Listening to to music will help you feel better and uplift you. It can also help you heal from trauma and physical problems. Music therapy uses many techniques to promote relaxation and healing. If you suffer depression and anxiety, music therapy can help you overcome these.

Music and Memory take this one step further. Studies have recently shown that people with dementia benefit greatly from listening to music. It keeps patients calm and enables the elderly to remember things from their childhood. And that’s not all.

Patents become much calmer after being introduced to a personalised playlist of songs. They will start to sing along to the music, communicate more effectively and become more awake. If you would know more about this unique approach, there is a list of providers that offer this us service on the Music And Memory web site.

Carers can start the process right now by creating playlists of music that your loved one likes and encourage them to listen via headphones.

Tonga still winners despite semi-final loss

Tonga still winners despite semi-final loss

A country consisting of 169 islands of which only 36 are inhabited and with a population of just over 100,000 people can hold their heads high after an incredible rugby league world cup campaign.

The Tongan national rugby league side has gone down fighting in an 18-20 loss to England on Saturday night after the most successful run in the nation’s history at the rugby league world cup.

The English team had come out firing as it appeared to Tongan team were still celebrating what was already a history-making run as they took a 12-0 lead after only 16 minutes of play thanks to tries from McGillvary and Widdop.

The Tongan national team came close on a few occasions but were unable to add anything to the scoreboard before the half-time break. It wasn’t long after the break before the English put another score on the board with as Widdop put through a penalty on 49 minutes.

The pressure from England was mounting and the Tongan’s appeared to have nothing left as the English went over again for a 67th minute try that seemed to all but end the contest.

However, the Tongan’s seemed to find something in the tank and with only 6 minutes to go got over the line for their first score of the match. Minutes later they have gone over another 2 times and were seemingly in with a chance as the score was now 18-20.

In the final seconds Andrew Fifita had the ball stripped only to regather and score what he believed to be the winning try.

Controversy struck as the match referee determined Fifita to have knocked the ball forward and England were through to their first world cup final since 1995. It ended an incredible run by the smallest nation in the rugby league world cup and one that their players and fans are extremely proud of.

Many of the experts believe that it was in fact not a penalty and Tonga should’ve been awarded the try. Regardless, the match referee should’ve gone to the video referee to check it at such a crucial stage in the match – a result-defining moment.

Laurie Daley, an Australian rugby league legend said that he felt the wrong decision had been made and that “You have to refer to it [the video referee]. That’s cost Tonga a final”

Despite going down on Saturday night, the Tongan supporters could be seen celebrating throughout Australia in light of the achievement of the national team. The success of the rugby league side at this years world cup was cause for celebration and it was clear that the semi-final loss did not deter them.

Speaking to Fifita after the game, he said, “I’m just happy to be a part of this team” and went on to say that he had no regrets choosing to represent his native Tonga as opposed to the Australian team now in the final this coming Saturday.

Fifita had been at the heart of a controversy involving a number of Australian players choosing to represent their native pacific nations despite being called up to the Australian rugby league world cup squad. However, in light on Australia’s success, Fifita believes that the success that Tonga has had at this world cup is bigger than anything that he could’ve hoped for.

Queensland election results still unclear and what it means for Turnbull

Queensland election results still unclear and what it means for Turnbull

Counting has resumed today for the Queensland election results with 13 seats still undecided. Labor has a small lead heading in into today but that is unlikely to be the major talking point of the result with a hung parliament very much a possibility.

Labor currently holds about 36% of the vote whilst the Liberals are at about 34%. With a total of 93 seats available and Labor currently holding 42, they will need to gain 5 seats of the remaining 13 in order to ensure a majority parliament.

The currently low share that both of the major parties hold is evidence of the new trend in which voters appear to be turned off the major parties. Pauline Hanson’s One Nation has managed to gain quite a significant share of votes (14%) for a minor party to highlight the change in attitude.

Despite not being able to turn these votes into seats, it does highlight the shift in thinking of Queensland voters and is likely to have repercussions for Malcolm Turnbull and his party.

It is predicted that the Labor government will gain majority when counting is concluded and there are four key implications that it will have for the Turnbull government.

Firstly, it makes the by election of December 16 even more important and Turnbull’s government is heavily centred on this. Secondly, the federal MP’s of Queensland’s Coalition will want more attention from government. And finally, the already nervous and depressed federal backbench will be further unsettled.

With the citizen crisis having erupted over the past few months, the Bennelong election was always going to be important, however the impending Labor victory in Queensland only makes it more so.

Mr Turnbull now has to become involved in the Bennelong seat left vacant by former MP John Alexander in an attempt to highlight his leadership and ensure a Liberal victory.

The challenge associated with this is that a loss will see Mr Turnbull at the front of the failure and have to cope with the ensuing responsibility of the swing in parliament. However, should they succeed, it will greatly benefit him having taken control of the situation and highlighted his own leadership.

Turnbull failed to appear regularly during the month-long campaign run by the LNP for the Queensland election, potentially highlighting the current struggles within parliament.

With the current dual-citizenship drama and constant media around the same-sex marriage debate it is unsurprising that the Turnbull government are in chaos. This only further strengthens the need for Mr Turnbull to play a role in the upcoming by-election to emphasise his leadership.

Whilst Mr Turnbull is yet to face any challenges to his leadership, the potential for a weakened party and many Queensland MP’s demanding greater attention is likely to cause further unsettlement within the party.

There is no doubt that Mr Turnbull cannot do it all himself and he therefore must enlist the power of the party to ensure a win come December 16.

Apple under fire for illegal overtime in iPhone X factory

Apple under fire for illegal overtime in iPhone X factory

Apple has acknowledged that students hired to piece together the new iPhone X worked illegal overtime. The High School students from Beijing hired by Foxconn, a manufacturing partner of Apple, worked the illegal overtime hours at a plant in China.

It has been revealed that at least six student from a group of 3000 from a vocational school were sent to work at the iPhone X factory in Zhengzhou. The report from the Financial Times said that the students worked 11 hours days. This is in violation of local labour laws that prevent students from working more than a 40-hour week.

Many of the students were clear in their statements outlining the nature of the work, “We are being forced to work here” said Ms Yang in a report from the Financial Times who added that the work was not relevant too, nor did it have anything to do with their studies or schooling. However there is a significant difference between the worker’s and the employer’s accounts.

Apple has admitted to identifying circumstances where individuals, specifically, student, were engaged in overtime work, discovered during a recent audit. In a statement from Apple, the company confirmed that the students had not been forced to work these hours, but regardless it is in violation of local law;

“We’ve confirmed the students worked voluntarily, were compensated and provided benefits, but they should not have been allowed to work overtime.”

It appears that these students were employed as demand for the iPhone X was higher than expected. They were seen as a form of cheap labour within the local area, able to take up the slack and build the smartphones by hand.

Foxconn has long been known to provide unsatisfactory working conditions. Manufacturers claim that the working conditions have improved, and they do so every year, journalists engaging in investigative work have found that the harsh conditions still exist.

The iPhone is Apple’s most important product line accounting for over 50% of revenue for the quarter ending September 30. This is only likely to have risen following the release of the iPhone 8 and iPhone X in October and the impending Christmas period.

The organization has stated that the demand for the new iPhone X, said to be revolutionary in phone technology, is at extreme highs. The iPhone X, which starts at $1579 is Apple’s most expensive smartphone yet, featuring an edge to edge 5.8 inch display, advanced camera system and new facial recognition technology used to unlock the device and make purchases.

The Phone was released earlier this month, much to the anticipation of consumers. Many had lined up for days prior to ensure they got their hands on one of the first iPhone X’s in the world.

Many of the Apple stores had sold out of the phone within two hours of launch. It is said to have broken numerous sales records within Australia with many orders now being pushed to be fulfilled by Christmas.

Apple has previously come under fire from authorities in China for the mistreatment of factory and manufacturing workers. Many of the reports have involved overcrowded factory dorms and excessive labour hours.
