Hints From Heloise

Dear Heloise: We have twins, and labeling photographs can be rather difficult. Besides flipping the picture over several times to make sure I’ve identified the correct son, I also have to be careful that I use a pen or marker that doesn’t smear or make an indention in the photo. So now I use self-adhesive labels for the job.

I can use just about any type of pen, and there are several sizes and colors of labels to choose from. I’ve color-coded the labels to make it easier when placing photographs in each of my children’s photo albums. -Trish Nall, Elizabethtown, Ky.
