A quick way to knock up some labels, although the only time i did it, the labels all printed mis-aligned using avery labels and software. Haven't tried it again since!

Thanks for the link, great web site.
Print your labels on standard A4 and stick them on with milk, works great!

I posted this elsewhere but thought I'd add it here, too. Not as glamourous as some (any!) but my labels don't need to last very long!
I like to keep it simple - it's just to identify what's in the bottle and when it was bottled. The current size gets 19 labels from one A4 sheet. The resulting band sits neatly over any bottle.

Bikedoc,
These a good thread running in The Tap Room about brewers labels that may give you some inspiration.
Cheers
