Try these laminating pouches made specifically for luggage, and make a sturdy tag that not even baggage handlers can destroy. All you have to do is insert a business card or similar-sized piece of paper into the pouch. Center it, and then feed it through your laminator. Out comes your new professional-looking luggage tag. Then, just attach it with the accompanying plastic loop.
Or, for big meetings or children's school fieldtrips, hang laminated tags around your necks with pieces of yarn or thin chains, as fun and easy name badges.
