They match this printable recipe binder (which is also available in my shop!):
If you decide to purchase them you’ll receive ALL 13 pages of labels (all 156 labels included in the bundle are listed below) so you can print and choose which stickers you want to use AND there’s also the 2 sheets of blank labels (lined and no lines) so you can add your own titles. Watch the video below to see how easy it is to add your own text using Canva (free online image editing software) – you could also use Picmonkey.
Note that the preview images in this blog post have been compressed to meet Wordpress' image size limit. The file you receive is a 300DPI high quality file (in both JPG and PDF file format!)
Page 1:
Lined – use these to organize anything – especially useful if you want to hand-write your labels to make sure your writing is straight
Page 2:
Blank – choose your own titles! (you can add your own text to the JPG file using FREE image editing software such as Canva or PicMonkey - as shown in the video tutorial above)

You can download the sheet of cleaning labels from this set for FREE when you subscribe to the blog (and access the rest of the free printables library!)
Amazon. If you live in Australia, you can purchase it from Kmart, or Officeworks.
I recommend keeping a 0.25” border around each side of the label (so that the contact paper can stick to the jar). So if the label is 2.5 x 2.5” square, you’ll want to cut your piece of clear contact paper at 3” x 3”. Then peel off the non-sticky backing of the contact paper and place your label facedown on the contact paper. Then fix to your storage bin, jar etc.
HOW TO CHANGE THE LABEL SIZE
If you would like smaller labels, just scale your printer e.g. to 85%.
Go to 'file' then 'print' then enter the % you would like them to print at in the scale option. So if you wanted labels that were 1.25" x 1.25" you would select 50% (as these labels are 2.5 x 2.5")
This blog post has more printing tips if you’re interested.
Alternatively, you can change the size of the labels by trimming 0.25” of the chevron pattern off the top and bottom of each label (after printing at their normal size) if you would like 2.5” long x 2” high labels.
I really enjoyed making these labels so if you have any suggestions for types of labels you’d like to see in the shop, or want another color scheme – send me a convo via Etsy or email me at allaboutthehouseetsy@gmail.com :)
