Mailing Labels

Since you are likely to be sending out some sort of Christmas/holiday cards soon, I thought you might appreciate some advice on creating mailing labels.

First, if you have a copy of Microsoft Works or almost any card publishing program, you have the ability to create an ‘electronic address book’ and produce labels. Check out the help sections of these programs to learn how.

I like the Microsoft Works approach real well. In Microsoft Works, use the Task Wizard to build an address book, then use the Task Wizard again to print your mailing labels.

If you would like some stand alone solutions, here are the top address book / mailing label downloads. All are free to download and try, but cost between $20-50 to keep.

One last tip, use Avery labels or labels that have an “Avery” number on them…it will make printing and setting up labels easier.
