Candle label guide
Printable candle labels
You don't need a print shop or a label printer to make good-looking candle labels. Design them here, print a full sheet on your home printer, and cut them out.
1. Design the label
Type your brand name, scent and net weight into the candle label maker, pick a style and a shape, and press Generate. When you like a design, use "Same style, new scent" to make the rest of your line in the same look.
2. Add a warning label
Make a free fire safety label with the candle warning label generator. You can print warning labels on their own sheet or mix them in with your front labels.
3. Choose your paper
- Matte sticker paper looks natural and is easy to write batch numbers on.
- Glossy sticker paper makes colors pop, especially on dark designs.
- Waterproof or vinyl sticker paper holds up better if candles get handled a lot or stored in warm places.
- Check that the paper works with your printer type (inkjet or laser).
4. Print at 100% scale
On the print sheet, choose your label size and click Print. In the print dialog choose US Letter, 100% or "Actual size", and turn off "Fit to page". Print one test page on plain paper first and hold the labels against your jar.
5. Cut and apply
Cut along the dashed guides with scissors, a craft knife or a circle punch. Wipe the jar clean and dry, line the label up, and press it on from the center outwards to avoid bubbles.
