Marking your collection for inventory/catalog

Ferguson · 17th April 2017, 03:54 PM

I would like to inventory my collection for insurance and estate purposes. I plan to mark each piece and take a picture of it, then put it in a spreadsheet. Have any of you done this? If so, how do you prefer to label them. I've considered, tags with string, paint marker, and adhesive labels. The tags wouldn't look very nice for those pieces that are displayed, and I worry that the adhesive stickers might come loose. Thoughts?

Thanks,
Steve
