Okay, I've done a search by forums and googled with no luck. I need custom printed garden markers (white plastic plant markers, printed with a custom saying) with space to write the name of a plant. Neither Branders.com or printedpromotions.com have them listed on their sites. I don't want to ebay them, as I've had bad luck with ebay printing in the past. Any other ideas?

This is where I get my garden markers. I buy 30 or more to save money. But if you have dogs, they get easily trampled upon. They look really good in the garden. They have a lot preprinted but they also have custom ones which are more expensive.

Those are really nice looking markers. I particularly like the whimsical ones like "weed" and "damifino"!

Those are beautiful. But, I was looking for the long white plastic ones that you get with your plants? I need to have them printed with the name of my daughter's fundraising project, with space to right the name of thee plant, too.

LOL! A couple of those are funny.

BassetMom, have you thought about making your own for the fundraiser? Using old miniblinds, and cutting them in lengths, then using a paint pen to write on them?

Or you can get terra cotta colored polymer clay and make your own.....there easy to do.

I use FIMO clay.....make ovals and bake...then write on them. You can also make your own out of quilting template plastic. Not as durable as the FIMO, but they work.

BassetMom try your local Speedy Printers or whatever of that type you have. I know I've had similar things printed on for charitable events. (everything from golf tees to plastic bags)

BassetMom,

Try Charlies Greenhouses for the markers.

Yes, we actually do all those things for our own garden. But, the volume would be too great for me to do these all by hand, with the fundraiser name too. I was hoping for preprinting of the fundraiser name and just writing in the plant. Maybe if I buy the plan ones in bulk from Charlies, Sir Speedy would print them up? I'll give that a try...
