Create a UIView and drop a UIImage and UITextView (or UILabel) on the view. Then add the view to the toolbarbutton.

To have an image and text for your toolbar button ( I think that's your question) I create a tabBarItem property and alloc init it in a "setup" method. In awakeFromNib I call the "setup" method. Be sure to have your image that you use in your supporting files folder This is how I do it:

@interface YourViewController : UIViewController {

}
@property (retain) UITabBarItem *tabBarItem;
-(void)setup;
@end

@implementation YourViewController
@synthesize tabBarItem;

-(void) setup{
UITabBarItem *item = [[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"theTitleYouWant" image:[UIImage imageNamed:@"yourImage.png"] tag:0];
self.tabBarItem = item;
[item release];
}
@end
