We bought these from someone who declared that her 97-year-old grandfather told her that his mother used to chew tobacco and she saved these horseshoe plug tags.
These tags were used around the early 1900s to mark plugs of tobacco - tobacco for chewing. Around that time, it was made by pressing cured tobacco leaves together in a molasses-based or other sweet syrup. This was a hand-on process. Customers would cut, or even bite off, a piece of the plug to chew.
Tags like these were used to identify the plug manufacturer. Although many such tags bore the name of the tobacco grower or producer, these do not. Most of these are quite rusty. The points bend under to attach them to the tobacco, or of course, to your project! Some of the points are bent backward already, so please be careful - the points are sharp!

Our REAL metal rusty tags aren't really rusty at all - but they appear to be rusty. You get all of the look with none of the iron-oxide grit that rubs off real rusty tags. Just make sure you get some extras, because they are just so cool!
Our mini tags measure 2-1/4 inches by 1-1/4 inch.

Brass Dog Bone Tag
These are the real thing: Dog Bone Tags that are used for rabies shot tags or doggie ID tags. We thought they'd be great to enhance your artwork or as a clever gift tag for a animal lover. But, our best idea yet (at least we think so) - is to add one to paper sack for those who like to take part of their dinner home - doggie bags!
These are very hard metal and don't lend them selves to letter punches, but you'll easily etch them with a hand engraver - or use a clear matte sticker. And, of course, metal inks and paints will work as well.

You'll find the quote on this regulation military spec dog tag an inspirational addition to any of your projects. This is an exclusive SilverCrow design.
Add one to your backpack, or even a zipper on a jacket. Use it as a key chain. Each tag measures 1 inch by 1-3/4 inch and is made from a military specification matte stainless steel dogtag. We've hung it on a 4-inch stainless steel ball chain.
It is so unassuming, but says so very much. The sentiment on each tag reads:

Heart ID Tag or Bracelet
Our Heart ID Tag is golden metal, with a 3/4 inch x 1-1/4" double heart plaque. The total length is about 6 inches. We like to remove the chain (keep it for another project of course!) and use the plaque as a tag on all kinds of artwork. Alcohol-based inks and dyes work best, but try anything. We've also used metal alphabet punches to indent special terms of endearment on the double heart. Or, try SilverCrow's Automatic Letter & Number Punch Set to personalize your tag!

Plain ID Tag or Bracelet
Our Plain ID Tag is golden metal, with a 1/2-inch by 2-inch rectangular plaque. The total length is just over 6 inches. We like to remove the chain (keep it for another project of course!) and use the plaque as a tag on all kinds of artwork.
Or consider using one of these as a gift tag by personalizing it and hanging it over the neck of a bottle of wine. What a special gift.
Alcohol-based inks and dyes work best, but try anything. We've also used metal alphabet punches to indent special messages on the small plaque. Consider SilverCrow's Automatic Letter & Number Punch Set to personalize your tag!

Black Scratch Tags
Our Black Scratch Tags aren't technically wood or metal: they are actually made of a very strong plastic, coated with a special ink that works like scratch board! You can use any sharp instrument (pin, knife, etc.) to scratch off the black color, revealing a white image. A removable forest green wire is attached to each 1 inch by 4 inch tag.
