The best way to make any organising project look a lot more professional is to use a label maker or label writer. Or you could also print out labels from your computer, of course.
If you use your PC or laptop you need some word processing software. You can use MS Word for instance. If every label is different you need to use the Mail Merge Assistant to create your labels. If all labels are the same or you only need one you can use the Envelopes & Labels function in the Tools menu (not sure how that would work with the new Office 2007 and its "ribbons" but a little scour through the help function should be able to sort this out).
The beauty of using a label maker is that it is portable and you can create your labels there and then. There are dozens of different makes and models in a wide variety of prices. The cheapest I have seen was a whole £15, the most expensive over £200.
The next thing you need to consider is the consumables cost for refills tapes. Again that varies tremendously and a bit of shopping around is a good idea. For one single type of refill (same brand, same size, identical product number) I came up with a price range between £3.39 and £5.99 .
So all you have to do is decide on a label maker within your budget and you can finish off your organising project in style.
