Printable Farmhouse Herb and Spice Jar Labels in Two Styles

Tags Free DIY Home Decor, Printable, Printable Labels

Now that you have your pantry newly styled with your Farmhouse Pantry Labels it is time to update your herb and spice labels too. Just for you, here are two sets (chalkboard and kraft paper) of herb and spice jar labels to match the pantry labels from last weeks post.

For my jars, I decided to use the label on both the side and the lids of the jars to make them easy to read at any angle. If you are looking for some great reusable jars, I found mine at World Market for 99¢ each. I love to buy my refills at my local health food store’s bulk section and save both dollars and tossing my used glass jars into the recycling bin with this method. Look how nicely these jars fit into my spice drawer. To make them even easier to keep organized, I trimmed simple triangle baseboard to the width of the drawer, one strip for each row of spices so four strips total. This keeps the jars in place and tips them up slightly so they are easier to grab while I am cooking. I will share more about this in my upcoming kitchen tour.

To print your labels, use the button at the end of the post that will take you to the blog at worldlabel.com. You can download these PDFs for free. Before you update them to your own text, you will need to download and install the free farmhouse style fonts. To edit the PDFs you will need to have them on your desktop and opened in Adobe Acrobat. You can then select the text and type in your own. Both the chalkboard and kraft styles have three pages in the PDF. The first is a script/caps, the second caps/script and the third just the caps. The three variations should give you the flexibility you will need for almost any herb or spice label. Print them onto a full sheet label paper (white since the chalkboard and kraft are part of my printable design) and trim the circles with a 1.5 inch circle punch. Place the labels on both the jar and one on the lid. I am loving my updated pantry and spice drawer and want to share a huge thanks to Online Label for hosting these printables on their blog. Enjoy! ~ Lia

Found this on Pinterest and am currently revamping my spice jars with these labels. Love it (World Market jars are now $1.49-not a bad price still). Question: For the simple triangle baseboard you mentioned, would you be able to tell me where you found that and possibly share an image of what it looks like in your drawer? Thanks so much!

Does anyone have a SPICE stencil suggestion for the word SPICE??? I could resort to individual alphabet stencils….it’s been a long time since I re-did my wooden spice rack…..I did it decades ago, stenciled on SPICE(god knows how) and decided with my new chalked painted kitchen cabinets and oh this is marble but it isn’t countertop quickfix that I should match the spice rack to the chalked looked…on went the paint and I still like that I tried extra hard forever ago to put SPICE on it as to not confuse myself that it could be used for something else and I just stuck these glass jars for spices that I never got cute labels for, did they even have that then? I think a roommate stuck the name of the spice on a few off the bottle (getting that tape off the glass jar/bottles was so difficult so these free printables are great it I can’t find sticky ones at the store).

I am so thrilled that I found these labels! I created labels for the herbs and spices in my cabinet and they are saved to a flash drive along with the font. Had some full sheet Avery sticker project sheets but they are for ink jet and I want good clear quality print so . . .took it to the closest Office Depot and all they had was ink jet in the full size. Saw that you use World Label paper so looked there. I saw two that I thought might work. One is called standard white and one is recycled white ( it is actually the more expensive of the two ). Could you please let me know exactly which paper you used? I would so appreciate it. By the way, I am envious of your creative talent and am so glad that you are willing to share.

  Hi Marlene! I’m so glad you love these labels, I still love seeing them all lined up in my pantry 🙂 I prefer the standard white from World Label, it’s just a brighter white than the recycled. Thank you for your sweet comment, it means a lot to me and my team!

I am concerned about being able to wash these jars with the labels on them. Do they hold up?

Reply
1. Lia June 16, 2017 at 7:52am
  
  @Lindsay
  
  No, they’re not intended to be waterproof. You’ll likely want to print multiple sets of the labels if you plan to wash the jars frequently.

Hello Lia!

Thank you for sharing these super gorgeous labels and making them free of charge!! I’m a fanatic when it comes to super cute stationery and organization supplies! I just printed out the pantry labels yesterday and they came out beautifully, for my mason jar spice bottles. I had to read up on how to do the settings for my printer and what kind of label sheet I had, but it was all worth it in the end. A quick question for you, did you use the matte label sheet or the glossy one? I used the matte and although the font came out nice and bright, the cute flower borders on the design didn’t so much…they came out a bit dull and not at all “chalk-y”, like they’re supposed to. Thank you again!

Warm wishes,

Nazish

1. Lia March 4, 2017 at 9:14pm
  
  @Nazish
  
  So glad you found these 🙂 I use the matte label sheet. The print quality really just depends on the kind of printer you use. We have a laser at the office but I also run things through my Canon inkjet on the “best” setting for a great result.

Hi Lia,
Just adore all of your creative ideas, thank you for posting these Farmhouse herb and spice labels as well as the matching pantry labels. I have all of mine set and ready to go, saved and placed them on a thumb drive to take to Kinkos. Since I downloaded the fonts like you mentioned, they show up just fine when saved and brought up on my computer. However, when they printed a test set at Kinkos, the more script-looking font showed up but the other didn’t and it just looked like a very plain font, maybe Times Roman or something like that. Do you have any suggestions on ways to translate both fonts to where Kinkos would be able to print them out as they are meant to look?
Thank you so much for your time and any suggestions you might have!
Best,
Holly C.

  Hi Holly! So sorry for the trouble. The fonts need to be loaded on the computer printing the job, so Kinkos will need to have them both installed as well. You can save the font files on your thumb drive for them to load!

Hi Lia,

I printed these labels but the actual words are too hard to read. 🙁 my ink is fine and I ordered the full sheet label paper but I don’t know how to make the spice names bold…
Any suggestions?

  Did you download the font? Unfortunately Acrobat doesn’t allow to designate more than one font so you cannot make it bold.

Lia,

These are the cutest labels I’ve seen on the Internet, and thank you so much for making them customizable with so many options and user-friendly.

How do you think it would look printed on clear label paper rather than white label paper? I worry that the labels will start to peel off at the edges with use or get smudged. I thought about cutting clear circles to place over the labels but that’s more work so I figured I can skip a step and print right on clear label paper unless the image won’t look as nice. Thank you so much!

I downloaded your chalkboard template! Im trying to print 1.5″, round spice labels. I bought Avery labels #8293 but they dont match with your template??

1. Lia July 13, 2015 at 10:41am
  
  @Kurt
  
  I usually print on solid label paper and then use a punch to cut out the 1.5″ round shape. I always find it to be more trouble to try to line up the pattern with the Avery template since you have to use their word template. This template wasn’t designed specifically for Avery.

    Love love love these labels and was wondering if I could use label, too. I never had luck lining them up but once someone was able to help me with it (I’m not sure how but it wasn’t in Word). What brand cutter do you like? I bought a Fiskars but didn’t find them particularly sharp. I can’t wait to put them on my spice jars finally!

The labels are not blank, but they are editable, so you just have to delete what is written in the labels and then add your own.

Hi Lia! I just adore your work!!
Yesterday I printed these labels in a supply office, but the chalkboard doesn´t look like the one in your photos, it is much more thin.
Also, I wasn´t able to edit the labels with Adobe Reader (the only way was editing them in the browser and the downloading them in my computer). Thanks so much for such lovely stuff!! I am planning to redecorate my hole house.

Best wishes from Argentina!

  Hi Maria and Hi to Argentina! The quality of the chalkboard depends on the printer. Usually you will get better quality with a laser printer.

Hi Lia,
I LOVE these labels but just printed them and unfortunately, I can read the lower case (i.e. ground) but barely can see the name of the spice (i.e. cloves). So frustrating – but I think it’s my printer – or ink? that has not worked properly. I just wondered if you – or anyone – had any idea how to make these print properly. Do I need to use photo quality perhaps? Thanks –

  I would try printing them at an office supply store like Kinkos or Office Depot. They have nice laser printers, must home printers are ink jet and they quality of the laser prints are generally much better for images.

I had download it and was able to edit the first two pages, just not the last page with the single line of type. I didn’t know if maybe one browser downloaded things more “thoroughly” than another.
