Fun labels
These labels are great! They're a little small for address labels, in my opinion, though. But I have used them to address postcards, as return address labels, and for other projects. We also used them in a school project for my daughter when she needed something metallic looking.

Do Not Purchase
They were thick and hard to peel. The ink wiped off easily and smeared if they didn't sit for a while before using them.

Stylish yet small
Think they're almost perfect. However, they're too short especially when added to the envelope. Requires the font to be small. And it's easy for the ink to smudge after drying.

Works as expected
It may be a bit unusual to explain, but I am using these to cover an old phone number on a plastic business plate. It's the only solution until we exhaust the remaining business plates we have in stock. Eventually, new ones will be ordered that will include the new phone numbers. Glad to have these right now. Our only solution!

Great Labels
I use these to print my return address labels for Christmas cards. They come out beautifully. Set your printer to "other glossy paper" (or something equivalent).

Exactly what I needed
I used these for wedding invitations. They worked great in my printer and we're easy to apply to the envelopes. With the print added they looked really elegant. The quality is as expected, I'd use for any large scale invites needed in the future.

Great Labels.
I love these labels. They print easily and add nice flair to whatever you choose to use them on. These work for both personal and professional use which makes them great to have. I enjoyed using them for address labels. They are durable and great quality. I didn't have any issues with the ink smearing and I was extremely happy with how they turned out.

High quality
These are really easy to use, just put into your printer and go. I love how pretty the labels are and they are really sticky so need to worry about them peeling off of your envelopes. These worked great for my Christmas cards I sent out. Pretty and convenient.

Very easy to use
Very easy to use
I have always loved having address labels to go on anything that I need to mail out. These are super easy to use and look great. I won't need to buy and labels for quite a long time thanks to getting these.

Pretty labels but have issues at the bottom rows
So, I tried two different printers for these address labels to see if it was my printer that was having problems. It was the same problem on both printers. Even using the company's template, our names were cut off in the bottom rows. Not sure why but it happened on 3 sheets of labels. I've only added one photo but you can clearly see the problem.

Sophisticated Label
The Avery Foil Mailing Labels in Silver are a very pretty and sophisticated label. They feed nicely through my HP printer and the ink adheres to them perfectly. I'm very happy with how they look on the envelopes!

Very pretty
I got these labels to use on my wedding invites, and I’m so glad. They have a beautiful sparkle to them that’s not too much but just enough to notice. They print really well, too. They don’t smudge and they come out nice when they’re printed on. I’m really glad I decided to make my invites a tad fancier. They look great!

Pretty labels
These labels are so easy to make your own address labels or any type of label. The text/print is bold and very readable. They are very easy to create/design with the Avery Design and print. There are so many templates that you can customize for your labels. After designing, you can print from your PC or tablet. The silver foil make these look very professional and ...

Love Them!
I love these labels. They are very pretty to use for address labels or Christmas tags or pretty much anything you want to use them for. I like that they are shiny and they will stand out on my letters.

Great product, works well!
I wasn't sure how these were going to work out. I was skeptical about an ink jet printing on a foil label. But it worked, I did let the labels dry for a few hours before using them. None of the ink rubbed off. I suggest that you print a test page to make sure that the alignment is correct. I would highly recommend this product to anyone.

Silver Shipping lables
I usually use gold, but they were unavaible due to supply chain issues. I actually like these better than the gold!

So pretty!
Really love these simple and elegant silver labels. They are very easy to use with whatever printer you have and are perfect for the holidays. Much easier than handwriting your address on each of your Christmas cards.

Enhances my holiday envelopes
I really enjoyed using these mailing labels for my holiday cards this year. They definitely added some flair! They were easy to make. With them being foil they can show creases, but if you care for them properly there won't be any issues. I did have to create an account with Avery, but it was simple. I like that I didn't have to have a computer to make the labels either...
