To measure: Measure the smooth area where the label will sit, side to side and top to bottom, and choose a label slightly smaller. For a wraparound, measure all the way around with a strip of paper.
Containers vary by maker, so print one label on plain paper and hold it on your bottle before printing the full sheet. Search all templates by size.
Size guide
About Spice Jar Labels
Printable spice jar labels for small round and square spice jars, drawers and lids. The 1.5 x 1 in. label fits the front of a small spice jar, 50 to a sheet; the 1.25 in. square fits the lid for drawer storage; and the 3 x 1.5 in. label suits larger jars. Waterproof vinyl wipes clean of oil and spills. Every size has a free template in Canva and Word.
Front labels or lid labels
Front labels are read when jars stand on a shelf or rack; lid labels are read from above when jars lie in a drawer. Many kitchens use both. The 1.5 x 1 in. small spice jar labels fit the front of small glass spice jars, and the 1.25 in. and 1.5 in. square labels fit most spice jar lids. For larger spice and bulk jars, the 3 x 1.5 in. label leaves room for the spice name and a date.
Choosing a material
Waterproof white vinyl is the safest choice for jars that sit near the stove, because a greasy fingerprint wipes off. Where clear gloss is offered, it lets the color of the spice show through. Paper labels suit jars that stay in a drawer.
Printing a full set
Type the spice names into the free template, print one test sheet on plain paper and hold it against a jar, then print on the label sheets. A sheet of 50 small labels covers a full spice rack with spares for new jars. For flour, sugar and pantry canisters, see the pantry and kitchen labels.
