Ever dream of the day
when you can work when YOU say?
Well the day has come for you to see
Everything that you can be.

So, stop dreaming of the day
start this cd and be on your way!
And if Pampered Chef isn't right for you
Perhaps you know someone to give this to!

I used to write a lot of cheesey poems in high school for a guy named David. It never worked on him, so no guarantees this will get a lead excited!

Ha! That's funny! I'm no good at coming up with cutesy wording either. I just stick my plain-jane label with my contact info on my DVD's.....maybe someone will come up with something!
 
Here's what I use. It's not about Take 5, though. I print these on address labels.

Don't Watch This . . .
if you’re working at your dream job
and can’t imagine what you’d do
with more money.

Thanks Rae, I like it! At least I haven't killed my own thread yet.Anymore, keep them coming. I had a parent ream me a new one today, so any creativeness I had is so gone. I think I found more grey hair after she left.
 
Instead of labelling the DVD, I print a saying on paper and then tape it AROUND the DVD--saying don't open this if.....(my saying was stolen from Don Funt, but I like Rae's a little more).

Well, mine was stolen (or, more likely, creatively adapted) from someone else.

You're welcome. I'm so sorry about the misbehaving parent. Need me to come kick someone in the ankle? I'm getting really good at it.

Rae, I would so love that. This job has been testing my patients, 3 of my parents are extrememly difficult. This one just yells at you in spanish telling us we are stupid, and don't know how to think, we aren't mothers we don't know what it's like, blah blah blah.

That's when I look at my Hawaii pics and say it's all worth it (barely)

So I like at end of Mandy's it says
And if Pampered Chef isn't right for you

Maybe I should just put that on cardstock in the bag, but then it might be too much, I can't think straight anymore.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

What are some creative ideas for DVD label wording?

Consider using playful phrases that reflect the content of the DVD, such as "Culinary Adventures Await!" or "Delicious Recipes at Your Fingertips!" You can also include a subtitle that highlights the theme, like "Easy Meals for Busy Nights" or "Family Favorites to Share."

How can I make my DVD label wording more appealing?

To enhance the appeal of your DVD label, use vibrant colors and fun fonts that match the theme of the content. Incorporate images or icons related to cooking or the specific recipes featured, and ensure the wording is concise and engaging to capture attention quickly.

Should I include my contact information on the DVD label?

Yes, including your contact information can be beneficial, especially if you're using the DVD for promotional purposes. Consider adding a small section at the bottom with your name, phone number, or website, so viewers can easily reach out for more information or to place orders.

What size should the wording be on the DVD label?

The wording should be large enough to be easily readable but not so large that it overwhelms the design. A good rule of thumb is to use a font size that is at least 18-24 points for the main title and slightly smaller for subtitles or additional information.

Can I use quotes or testimonials on my DVD label?

Absolutely! Including a short quote or testimonial can add credibility and entice viewers to watch the DVD. Just make sure it's relevant to the content and fits well within the overall design of the label.
