Great Inexpensive (jewelry?) tool !

I ran across this cool little item a while back and put it on my Amazon wishlist. When I needed to order a few things the other day, I popped this little cutey into my cart. :) 

I love a tool that does double duty and this little Xyron sticker maker has such potential, it was a great score at just 8 bucks ! 

This cool little tool takes your item - a drawing, cut out, picture, and turns it into a sticker. You feed it in one end....


Pull it out the other end


 Lift to tear it off on the serrated edge


 Then rub to 'set' the glue


 Cut and peel off the top plastic



And you are left with a STICKER! 


Peel off the sticker whenever you're ready to use it


And they stick pretty good! 

 

you can't go wider than the opening, but you can go smaller


Hello little cutie-pie!


 And you can go lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnger.


Now, these examples aren't exciting.

Not at all.

But think of what you can do - appreciation stickers in the packages you send your customers, logo stickers, food labels, stickers for your kids, stickers OF your kids -- or their drawings for Grandma !

Annnnnd, dun-dun-dunnnnnnnnnnn - in your studio - use them as piercing guides - any design !

Create the sticker, attach to your metal, and pierce away!

I am sure I will come up with other uses too.....what about you - what can you think of???
