Common applications
Bookplates and signed-copy stickers usually fall between 2.5 and 4 in.
Plain boxes become retail packaging with a front label carrying the brand and product name.
Tubs and takeout containers often get a lid label with the product name, date or allergens.
A tidy label on a gift box or basket with the brand or a seasonal message.
A separate back label carries the nutrition table, ingredients and allergens so the front can stay clean.
These are typical uses, not requirements. Measure your container first; the FAQ below shows how.

Put the brand on the top third and the details below; on narrow strips run the name along the long side. A label this big can carry the whole story, but leave white space so the product name still stands out.

We wind rolls to your order. As a guide, a single-lane roll of 3.25 × 4 in rectangle labels on a 3 in core and up to 6 in across holds about 770 to 940 labels. The range depends on whether the long or short side runs along the roll, which follows the unwind direction you choose. Larger orders are split over several rolls. If your dispenser or applicator needs a specific core, roll size or count per roll, add a note to your order.
Yes. Enter the width and height the way your artwork reads; 3.25 × 4 and 4 × 3.25 in are the same price. For rolls, also pick the unwind direction so labels come off the roll the right way up for your product or applicator.
Yes. Per label, expect about $0.520 at 250, $0.169 at 1,000 and $0.086 at 5,000. Choose Custom quantity in the quote builder for anything larger.
Measure the flat or straight part of the container. The label needs a panel at least 3.25 in by 4 in, with a little margin. If you want it to wrap all the way around, the long side (4 in) covers a round container of about 1.3 in diameter with a small gap.
Plan for a full front label with a description, or a back label with ingredients and directions. Keep important text and logos a little inside the cut line (about 1/16 in, 1.5 mm, is a good rule of thumb) and use a background that runs past the edge as bleed.
