AWESOME! Thank you so much for this tutorial it was exactly what I was looking for down to the same label size and exactly from Avery. It was great to hear at the end of the video that you would even update and add in any request. So here it goes....could you please update the video to show how after transferring a logo from my downloads, what do I do to get rid of the white background my logo shows once placed over the background picture. How can I just get the logo to show and blend in with the background picture. Thank you so much in advance.

[@cbpapp]

I attempted to work with Canva last night and found it to be limiting. I would find a text within a photo that I liked, but then the remainder of text boxes either didn’t have a font I liked, or didn’t have enough text boxes. The delineating line was too thick. Fonts from more than one text photo can’t be used together and it was just frustrating for me. I already had a logo, but I haven’t have an inexpensive way to edit it. I am sooooo frustrated. If you have any other suggestions, Jeff, I would greatly appreciate it! Also, Avery doesn’t have a 1 1/2” x 3 or 4” clear rectangle label. Grrrrrrrr!!! Thanks so much for your HELP!! Many thanks for all the help you offer! You are a candle saint! 🙏🏻💗

[@everythingfantastic2666]

Hi Stanley, thank-you for this video! I have used Canva to make many labels for my candles but before printing them off I am wondering whether you know if there might be any legal (copyright) troubles with using their fonts/shapes/elements and whether you have encountered any? I believe their regular images are free to use for commercial purposes but I am not 100% sure.

Hey Jeff curious what type your printer is? My black color comes out matte looking faded purpleish so thinking of upgrading to a new printer

[@oslecmaragoto1992]

Is that a specific printing or we can do it with a regular one Thank you

[@Cookie_Divine]

This is off topic. But I'm starting to think I'm crazy. I saw in one of your videos you were pouring oils and I thought it had a little pourer type thing on it. If that was the case. Where do you get them from or what are they called? Thank you in advance. Sorry for this post being off topic.

[@brandylucas1783]

Are we able to use a free Canva template and put in our own text for our own labels? Also, how can I add text that is on the side of a label?

[@StandleyHandcrafted]

Absolutely. Canva has tons of free templates.

[@toms81162]

Try online labels. Cheaper, $5.00 shipping. design online

Hi, I see that you are using regular labels. I know that Avery sells labels for candles. What is your opinion on this; regular or specific use labels? I have been wondering for a while about this issue. Thank you for your videos. Sylvie

[@organicprinciples]

I design mine on Canva, resize the design to match up with the candle label template on the Avery website - and instead of printing myself I print through THEIR website. Works well for me and is quite inexpensive 🤷🏿‍♀️

[@loveofnature74peaceandlove56]

what size jars can this size label be used for? 9oz?

[@christopherplatt8530]

Hi, I noticed you use 'TrueBlock' labels. I'm guessing this is the same as 'Coverup Paper' (Avery UK), a label that is thicker than regular paper labels. I was just wondering if you buy these because they are better quality or look better on the jars. I onlyask as I previously bought regular paper labels from Avery to have a go at printing my own but they seem really thin and look cheap :/ I'm thinking of buying some of the coverup labels to see what they are like. What would you recommend? Thanks :D

[@StandleyHandcrafted]

Yea the ones I used in this don’t look good for candles. I use those labels mainly for other products that don’t need a nice label, like wick bags. I have some nicer ones this size for candles.
