Some sticker paper from an office store, Staples or the like, and a good-quality printer. Bam! Instant stickers. :3

yeah...but i always feel like they're a little cheap because they don't have the glow and solidity of a vinyl sticker redface

Vinyl stickers generally take a lot of setting up to make, so I'm not so sure you can get them outside of mass qualities. D:

They allow low minimum orders as low as 5 sheets. And the price is decent!
"Paper Forest stickers are printed on high-quality polyester with a Indigo S5000 in full CMYK, then laminated and cut with an industry standard laser. The cut-line is custom for your image. All this ensures the highest quality stickers possible, certainly higher then any vinyl sticker could offer."

I found a brand called U-create it or something like that a long time ago but it doesn't seem to be available anymore. I've gone on places like ebay actually in order to buy more supplies of it. It's glossy so I like it more than any other sticker/label paper I've seen in stores. smile

I'd just go to kinkos, print on regular paper [though photo-paper is a good alternative if I dont have an over-laminate] all my designs, buy some overlaminate/contact paper, find a nice paper-puncher [i use a 1.5" round circle punch], a xyron sticker machine refil [dont bother buying the machine, all you need is the refill]

Step 1: Print as many designs as you can fit onto one sheet of paper

Step 2: (optional): Seal contact paper / over-laminate over sheet of paper

Step 3: Punch / Cut out designs.

Step 4: Pull designs through the Xyron Sticker Refill

Step 5: Pull off the "rub and peel" sheet from on top the sticker, trim down the paper thats under the sticker if necessary, and TA DA you have a semi-professional looking sticker, low cost, can make as many as you want.
