Label homemade jam, preserves and pickles with round labels at 2.5 inches (60 mm) — the size that centres neatly on a regular-mouth mason jar lid. Type the contents and date, pick a font, print and cut along the circles.
At 2.5 inches a label sits centred on a regular-mouth mason jar lid with a clean margin all round. There is comfortable room for two lines: the contents in large type and the date beneath it. If you also want ingredients or a best-before date, the landscape sizes on the jar front work better — on a lid it gets cramped quickly. For a jar you are giving away, a small image or symbol is worth adding; you can place one here and position it freely.
You can print on plain paper and cut along the marks, or use a pre-cut sheet made for this format:
| Avery Zweckform L3416 | Ø 60 mm round, white. 1,200 labels on 100 A4 sheets, 12 per sheet — the same arrangement this tool uses. |
|---|---|
| Plain paper | Print, cut out and attach with a glue stick. For jars kept in a fridge, coated paper holds up better. |
At 60 mm this tool arranges 12 labels in a 3 × 4 grid on an A4 sheet, matching the Avery Zweckform L3416 sheet. Cut just inside the dashed line — a white fringe shows more on a lid than a slightly undersized label does.
Print-to-the-edge round labels for jar lids, 120 per pack. Glossy face, permanent adhesive, laser and inkjet.
Pint jars with lids and bands. The 2" lid matches the round label preset in this editor.
TripleTrack rail and a cut-line wire that shows exactly where the blade lands. The single best upgrade over scissors for printed label sheets.
