Turn a Plain Jar Into a Product People Buy
A candle label carries your scent name, your brand and the safety copy on glass, tin or metal, and it is the first thing a shopper reads on a boutique shelf. You peel it and press it on by hand, one jar at a time. Sets of 25 start at $23.88, rated 4.8 out of 5 across 5 reviews.
White vinyl holds up on a candle that gets warm and handled, and clear film suits a glass jar. To compare these labels with our other candle labels, browse every option on candle labels printing, or stay here and build yours from the choices below.
A set of 25 at $23.88 labels one pour of a new scent for a craft fair. A maker stocking several shops orders in the thousands, where the cost drops toward a nickel a label. Tap any tier below to see the total at that count.
What Are Standard Candle Labels
Standard candle labels are pressure-sensitive adhesive labels printed for candle jars, tins and gift sets. At 4OVER4.COM they print full color or black only on the front, in 50 sizes from a 0.5" circle up to a 4.625" CD label, on 5 materials including white vinyl and clear.
The label holds your scent name, your brand, the burn and safety copy, and the color that makes the candle look finished on a shelf. Print a small round label for the lid, a larger one for the body, or both in the same order. Every label starts at $23.88 for 25 and ships ready to apply by hand. If you sell in volume and want labels wound on a roll for faster application, the Roll Candle Labels cover that format, and the Premium Candle Labels step up to tougher waterproof stocks.
What Size Should a Candle Label Be
Choose the size by the vessel. A small 0.5" to 1.25" circle is made for the lid or the base of a tin, where a logo or a warning mark needs to sit neat. Step up through the larger presets when the label rides the front of the jar and has to hold a scent name and your brand. The widest preset is a 4.625" CD label, roomy enough for a full front panel on a wide-mouth jar. Need a true wrap that circles the whole vessel? Set a custom size up to 6" x 5". All 50 sizes, both ink options and the full material list are grouped below exactly the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it. Candles often sit next to other packaging, and the Standard Jar Labels are a close match when the container drives the design.
Two choices shape how the label looks on the jar.
Pick the material for where the candle lives
Standard uncoated reads matte and natural, the look most soy and botanical candles want. Semi-gloss adds a little sheen, and hi-gloss gives the brightest color and photography. When the candle sits near heat, wax or a steamy bathroom shelf, white vinyl holds up far better than paper. Clear film leaves no visible edge: printed on a glass jar it looks like the art was applied straight to the surface, with no white rectangle behind it.
Choose your ink for the look you want
Ink prints 1/0, which is black only, or 4/0, which is full color, on the front of the label. Reach for 4/0 when you want a branded, photographic front, or 1/0 for clean minimalist black type on an uncoated stock. The back of the label carries the adhesive, so all your printing sits on the front.

How Much Do Standard Candle Labels Cost
Count your jars before you set the quantity. A maker with 12 scents and 25 jars of each needs 300 labels, which cost $65.97; 900 labels for a holiday season cost $94.25, and 4,000 cost $283.97. At the top of the ladder, a 25,000 batch works out to about a nickel a label, from the same $23.88 start for 25. Drag the slider below to set your count and watch the total and the per-label cost change. You also earn 4OVER4 loyalty coins on the order and can apply them at checkout for up to 11% off.
Wally dresses the jar, not just the wax
Why a $23.88 set of 25 candle labels makes a plain jar look like a brand.
Standard candle labels start at $23.88 for 25 and print full color on paper, durable white vinyl, or clear stock for the no-label look on glass. Size them from a 0.5 inch lid circle up to a 4.625 inch front panel, gang up to 12 scents in one order, and Wally gets them printed as fast as same-day.
Can You Print a Different Label for Each Scent
Yes. If your line has more than one scent, you do not need a separate order for each. You can gang up to 12 different label sets in a single order and print them together, which keeps the cost per label low across the whole collection. One order can hold lavender, cedar, vanilla and the rest of your line, each with its own front.
You also choose how to approve the art. Straight to production is the fastest, for artwork you already trust. A free online proof shows you a digital preview to sign off on. And a next day hardcopy proof puts a real printed sample in your hands before the full run goes ahead. Upload your art as a PDF, JPG or PNG, and the file drops straight into the order.
How Do Candle Labels Compare to the Rest of the Range
This is our lowest priced candle label, on sheets you apply by hand. If you are also looking at a tougher waterproof stock, a roll for faster application or a container-specific label, the chart below puts the starting price of each next to this one. Our guide to affordable label printing explains where the savings come from.
How Fast Can You Get Candle Labels
Standard candle labels print on a 3 business day standard turnaround, and when a launch or a market date sneaks up you can move that to 2-day, Next-Day or even Same-Day production out of the New York City facility. Each step buys back time for a set amount on top of the base price, so you only pay for speed when you actually need it. Same-Day orders need to be approved by the daily cutoff to ship that day, and 99.8% of 4OVER4 orders land on time with 82% shipping early, so you are not gambling on the date.

Standard Candle Labels: Frequently Asked Questions
Can I order labels for several scents in one go?
Yes. You can gang up to 12 different label designs in a single order, which is how a scent lineup gets printed without placing a separate order per fragrance. That keeps a small collection on one production run.
Which size fits a candle jar lid?
There are 50 sizes, starting at a 0.5 inch circle that suits a small lid or a seal, and running up to a 4.625 inch CD label. For a body label that wraps most of the jar, the custom size goes up to 6 by 5 inches.
Will the label survive a candle that gets warm?
White vinyl is the most durable of the five materials and is the one to choose for a jar that is handled often and warms while burning. The uncoated, semi-gloss, and hi-gloss papers give a softer craft look and suit a jar that is mostly decorative or gifted.
Does the label stick to glass, tin, and metal?
These are peel-and-stick labels that press onto glass, tin, or metal containers. Apply to a clean, dry, room temperature surface, because adhesive sets best before the vessel is filled or heated.
How much does a first batch cost?
Sets of 25 start at $23.88, and the per-label price drops to about 5 cents each as the run climbs to 25,000. Twenty-five is a practical quantity for a first market batch or a seasonal scent.
Can I print in black only, and how fast do they run?
You can order full color or black only on the front, and black only is cheaper for a plain typographic label carrying the scent name and the safety copy. Standard production is 3 business days, with 2 day, next day, and same day rush available.
