A 2 5/8" writing area is the perfect size for making a permanent label for your plants that will never fade. Copper labels are attached to 10" tall galvanized steel stakes.
To engrave your label, place the label on a stack of papers for cushion and use a hard tipped pen to indent the letters into the copper, pressing hard as you go.
Alternatively, you can use a Marking Pencil (as seen in the picture) found HERE.
