How to make jar labels at home

  1. Measure the flat area on the jar (not all the way around).
  2. Open the free label maker and set that custom size.
  3. Add product name, net weight, ingredients. Load a sheet if you have many flavors.
  4. Print one test. Stick it. Then print the rest.

Jam, pickles, sauce
