Regular Mouth (70 mm) & Wide Mouth (86 mm) Mason Labels
Pre-sized canning, pickle, and pantry mason jar labels covering both flat side panels and 70 mm / 86 mm screw-band lids.
How to use the mason jar and canning label maker in 4 steps
Generate a full sheet of perfectly sized lid seals, body tags, or gift neck cards in under two minutes.
Step 1: Choose mason jar or canning jar
Select whether you are labelling regular-mouth (70 mm metal cap, ~50 mm recessed centre) or wide-mouth (86 mm metal cap, ~65–68 mm flat lid) preserving jars.
Step 2: Add contents and canning date
Type the recipe name, optional batch note, and canning or best-before date fields.
Regular-mouth and wide-mouth lids
Measure the flat inner medallion inside the metal screw band rather than the outer rim so lid decals sit completely flat without lifting at the groove.
Best-by and processing date fields
Leaving a clean printed date line—or typing the canning month right on the PDF—helps track pantry stock rotation cleanly across seasons.
Step 3: Pick lid and body label sizes
Match circle diameter for flat lid centres, classic rectangles for smooth-sided Ball or Bernardin-compatible jars, or bordered tag rectangles for twine gift ties.
Step 4: Download the PDF and print
Export a 100%-scale vector PDF and print on plain cardstock for tags or self-adhesive sheets for lids and fronts.

Using A4 or Letter label sheets
Match US Letter cardstock for standard North American canning sticker packs or A4 matte sheets for UK Kilner and Mason preserves.
Scale, margins and bleed
Percentage shrinkage leaves flat lid circles undersized inside 70 mm regular-mouth and 86 mm wide-mouth screw bands.
Print at 100% or Actual Size
Disable Fit to Page so regular-mouth (60–65 mm flat center) and wide-mouth (75–80 mm center) lid circles match lid rings closely.
Keep a safe margin
Keep vintage decorative borders inside a 3 mm inset on textured kraft or embossed mason jar sheets.

Print quality and file format

PDF versus JPG output
Vector output prevents feathered dark edges when printing fine mason jar date lines on home inkjet printers.
Ball jar labels printable for everyday projects
Compatible sizes for classic mason jars turn seasonal harvests and handmade gifts into cohesive keepsakes—Ball jar labels printable in crisp batches without software fees.
Home canning and preserves
Track tomato passata, dill pickles, peach halves, and apple butter cleanly across cellar shelves by harvest year.
Gifts and party favours
Add monogrammed wide-mouth lid decals or printable kraft neck tags for bridal showers, teacher gifts, and holiday cookie jars.
Pantry and freezer labelling
Use cold-rated removable labels on freezer-safe straight-sided pint jars so broths and berries stay clearly dated without glue residue later.

Independent template compatibility & food rules note
Print Sheet Maker is independent and not affiliated with Ball, Bernardin, or Avery—any diameter or sheet sizes referenced for compatible regular-mouth and wide-mouth mason jars are sizing guides only. Always wait until processed jars cool completely before applying labels, and check local food-labelling rules if selling home preserves.
Use removable or dissolvable labels for reusable jars
Home canners wash and reuse glass hundreds of times; choose water-dissolvable cornstarch labels or low-tack removable stock so jars soak clean effortlessly.
Always add a date line
Standard canning guidance recommends consuming home-canned goods within a year for peak quality—make the month and year immediately scannable.
Test the label on one jar before printing a sheet
Cut out one plain-paper proof and wrap or lay it against your specific quilted jar face before running full adhesive sheets.
