let say i need to create a cpu simulator and i need 32 registers, to make the demonstration i need 32 labels and let say i want those labels background color to be white, what should i do to avoid repetation of setting properties to labels?

You can write below code and call it in form load or in the constructor.
Just a demonstration.

foreach(Control c in Controls)
{
if ( c is Label )
{
c.BackColor = Color.White;
}
}

nice idea indeed.

And I think it's the only solution if you don't need to use Themes, etc.. because .net controls is sealed; you can't inherit from and do some changes.

1- Search on theming and skeining product and see the read me file.
Really, I didn't use such methodology in work, usually I don't interfere with UI process.

After Ramy posted you a snippet you said : nice idea.
Ramy was setting properties to controls, is that not a contradiction with your first post?
Anyway, this snippet might also help you out :

P.S.
Btw. your guitar playing is not bad at all;)

Yeah, what is it with this thread? Is it solved? Serkan?
We can't start a guitar forum here. I think Dani would not like that very much to say the least;)
