You can make candle labels at home in the free label maker. Measure the jar, set that size, add scent name and a warning line, print one test on the real glass, then print the batch. No signup. CLP / ASTM warning text is yours.

Good to know: CLP / ASTM warning text is your responsibility. We design the sticker. We don't write a legal candle warning for you.

How to make candle labels at home

  1. Open https://app.mylabelmaker.com. No signup.
  2. Measure the flat on the jar (or the lid) and set that custom size.
  3. Add {{scent}}, net weight, and a warning block you approve.
  4. Print one test. Stick it. Then print the rest of the pour.

Lid vs wrap

Lids are easy circles or squares. Wraps need a slightly short rectangle so the ends don't bulge. Save two JSON files if you use both.

Print or save

If you have a Zebra, print from this computer with Browser Print at the printer's DPI. If you don't, download PNG, JPEG, SVG, PDF, or ZPL. JSON keeps the layout so you can open it later.

One test on glass. Then the pour.
