In getting my house organized and decorated, I found it the perfect time to update my herb and spice jars with these spice bottle labels in a vintage chalkboard style design. Elegant, trendy, and functional! I stocked up on these simple glass spice jars with a stainless steel lid that I found at World Market, as they are a perfect fit for 9 across in my spice drawer. For this printable I did my best to include all herbs, spices, salts, peppers and even extracts. I also included a page of lid labels since I like that added touch to the simple understated bottle. You can easily print the 4 page PDF onto 1.5 inch round label paper. You can also print onto a full sheet label paper and use a 1.5 inch punch to cut your circles. Sometimes it can be tricky to line up the design perfectly with the round label paper, so for a hassle-free experience I would recommend buying the full sheet label paper and cutting the labels out individually (or use a punch if you have one!). One trick when you print on the full sheet paper is to peel the label backer off, then replace it right before punching the circles. This will help the backer come off easier once trimmed. Enjoy these herb and spice bottle labels! My pantry organizing is scheduled for next week and I will be designing some coordinating labels for all of those jars and canisters. Cheers! ~ Lia
UPDATE: Check out the coordinating pantry labels and gluten-free pantry labels set that I created after this post.

I love these! Wondering though, is there a way to edit the size of the label? I’m using half pint mason jars and was hoping to create the label to fit on the lid with is about 2inches. Thank you for your beautiful creation!
Hi Alyssa! Thank you for your kind words, we’re so happy you enjoy the project! Unfortunately there’s no way to edit the labels within the PDF, but if you change the scale feature when you print them you can make them smaller or larger! We hope this helps!
Hi! I’m from Argentina, and it would be great if you could make this printables without the writing, so the ones who don’t speak english can make this labels in our language. Thank you!!!
Hi Lorena, have you seen this post? https://liagriffith.com/printable-farmhouse-herb-and-spice-jar-labels-in-two-styles/ These labels are editable. Enjoy!

Can you tell me which sticker paper you recommend to order from world labels for the spice jars and pantry labels? There are a lot of options, I want to make sure I am ordering the correct one. Thanks for the lovely labels.
I just used the full sheet white label paper and then cut the labels out myself after I printed them 😉 It was too difficult to get the precut labels to line up with my template!

Hi I went to download this set finding it through your freebie tab on your website and then again from your etsy page and both lead me to links to joining a membership.
Hi Emily, we are in transition today in changing our business model from a freebie site to membership site. Unfortunately you caught it right in the middle.
Beautiful labels 🙂 we shared them on our blog 🙂 http://cultureandgreens.com/2015/07/21/air-drying-herbs/
Thank you so much!!
Yes, we only use full sheet labels and a punch to trim them. It is nearly impossible to get pre cut labels lined up so this is the best solution we have come up with.
I found them at World Label
I see that you mentioned a new editable pdf will be available soon. I desperately need to organize my spice and was just curious how soon this will be available.
Within the next couple of weeks….Have you seen this post https://liagriffith.com/printable-farmhouse-herb-and-spice-jar-labels-in-two-styles/
Hi Lia,
I love these labels so much! I just added all of them to cylinder spice jars. There are a few more I need that you don’t have and I couldn’t find the editable one in your Easy shop. Can you send the link or let me know how I can edit them. If you have an editable one for the coordinating pantry labels, I’d like that one as well. Thanks!
Hi, we took them off the Etsy shop because people found them too hard to edit in Word. Lesson learned, we are designing new ones in an editable pdf, stay tuned for next weeks reveal.
I love these labels so much but couldn’t get the scaling right with my printer. Are they still available through your etsy store? or any tips on printing? I went to world label to try to download from there but didn’t see them! Thanks!! <3 <3
I would print them on full sheet labels rather than try to match up the circle labels. It always seems to be a disaster to line things up. Love the round punch.
Thank you so much for sharing these! You are really helping me get my spices in order! Any chance I can edit these? Im missin a label for Onion Powder, Onion Salt, Italian Seasoning, and Garlic Salt. They look fabulous and I can wait to do it to the rest of my pantry items 🙂
You are so amazing! Thanks for your work!
Those kind words put a huge smile on my face:)
can i print these off at like an officemax or staples? what type of paper do i ask for. any help appreciated
Hi Lance,
Yes you can definitely print them off at Officemax or Staples. I used label paper and then cut them with an exacto knife. Hope that helps!
Hi
I love your works.
I will try to pint these spice labels. I will do on full sheet like u recommended and the hole puncher. Inquiry do u recommend the weatherproof paper and which one incase it get wet? There are so many paper types and choices. Thank you!
I think that paper is going to keep them looking better longer for sure.
τηανκσ
You are welcome!
Could I ask you what printer you use to print these? I have an hp photosmart but it’s rubbish! I need a replacement to do things like this and scrap booking etc but I don’t what to get
Hi, I have a Xerox phaser laser printer but it is a heavy duty office printer. I love it though. I usually recommend my readers to print smaller quantities at an office supply store. In the US we often use FedEx Kinkos, not sure what the UK equivalent is. Hope you find something that works for you!
These label series are gorgeous! How about Garam Masala?
Good call! I really like Garam Masala.
Hi Lia!
I am in love with all of your work! Especially what you’ve done to beautify spice jars, and all jars! You are so talented! How can I purchase more spice labels, or get customized ones made? Does it come with font aswell?
Thanks!
This set doesn’t come with fonts but if you want to buy them I can give you links. I do offers custom in my Etsy shop.
I recently used the kraft paper style pantry labels, however the print on them was very light and quite difficult to see….It did not appear that way on my screen…Can you someway darken the color on the print…thank you….Patricia
Are you using an ink jet printer? If so it will not print as dark since too much ink saturates the paper. Try taking it to a place that offers laser printing service. FedEx Office or most office supply stores have this service.
Hi Lia, I love the look of all the labels! x Lin
Thank Lin!
can you possibly make these editable?
I love these labels! I am actually making a photo album wedding gift for a family friend and i needed a guide to model my custom stickers from so i can create some unique cute stickers to put on each page of the album. Its a craft of my own and YOU are helping me bring it to life! Thank you!
Wonderful to hear! Love to inspire. 🙂
Love these! Since Facebook is notorious for not letting page owners know when I tag them, I thought I would stop by myself and let you know I featured this post and my readers loved it! https://www.facebook.com/CraftsbyAmanda/photos/a.353593675216.349539.323548680216/10153848191000217/?type=1&stream_ref=10
And it did not let me know so THANKS for passing that on. And. . . Thanks for sharing with your readers Amanda!!
Thank you for the labels to print. Now I can label all of my spice jars that I have for the ones that I have and grow. They are very nicely done
WOnderful! Enjoy!
I printed the pantry labels without problems…can’t do the spices. In reading the posts, I see I’m not the only one. Can you help me please??? Thanks so much–LOVE these!
Are you downloading them from worldlabel.com? They are hosting this set.
Could you possibly include a label for mace? I use it all the time when baking, it’s a great spice!
I offer custom in my Esty shop.
And for Italian seasoning!
Thank you for the beautiful labels- One question, I printed on a decal sticker sheet and tried to punch the whole with the fiskars and had a lot of trouble. Do you think it was because the decal paper is much thinner than the Avery label paper?
If the decals are plastic the punch may not work so well. I am finding a solution with a different cutter and will let you know the results.
Ok- I went and bought the labels that you suggested and it worked very well. I think the flimsy decal plastic labels make it difficult to use the whole puncher.
Sorry I just noticed that my auto-correct typed “whole” instead of “hole.”
Haha. I didn’t even notice.
Oh good! So good to hear!
These are absolutely the best! You have such great ideas. I’m excited to incorporate them in my home. Question – what do you use to round punch the lables from a full label sheet?
Thanks! I use a 1.5 inch punch which is the medium size here on amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Fiskars-Squeeze-Punch-Large-Circle/dp/B000OMZXGU/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1390417914&sr=8-2&keywords=fisker+punch
Late to finding these but love them. I have opened them in photoshop so that I can make some other custom labels (for other stuff I have floating around the house and also to label up some crafty jars, but I just love the font you have chosen and want to do the whole house (and a few garden) labels in it. Can you tell us which font it is you have used. Thank you so much for sharing.
I also sell the blank ones in my Etsy shop for $5. The fonts are LiebaKlara and Haymaker. If you don’t want to buy the font but do want matching labels, I offer custom labels in Etsy to match as well.
Hi Lisa, My Mom just passed away and I inherited an old fashioned spice rack. I used your labels and gave it a spruce up. It looks great!! The only problem is I need onion powder to complete the collection. Any chance you are going to make that one?
Nice! I do sell these as custom labels in my Etsy shop. I will shoot you an email.
These are fabulous!!! Thank you!
Glad you like them.
THANK YOU! I just stumbled across your blog and am now a subscriber! These are to die for! I just revamped my whole spice cabinet with your labels and the jars you recommended. Totally impressed with how it all turned out. Your labels are amazing. Is there anyway I can edit the PDF to add a few more spices that I use that weren’t included? Herbs de Provence, Italian Seasoning, Old Bay, Baking Powder, Lawry’s Seasoned Salt, Taco Seasoning and Lemon Pepper. Thanks!
Hi Dorie. I do offer custom labels in my Etsy shop. Send me a custom request and I can give you the quote.
OMG! You are so creative. Thanks for sharing these Spices Labels.
Now if you could please tell me where do I go to buy only sheets which are required for these Spices labels.
I just have normal plain paper.
What Store and can I get only 4 Sheets and What exactly is the name of those sheets.
Thanks a lot!
You can get a pack of full sheet labels at an office supply store. They often come in 25 sheets. You can also order them on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Avery%C2%AE-Full-Sheet-Printers-TrueBlock-Technology/dp/B000093L1J/ref=sr_1_1?s=office-products&ie=UTF8&qid=1388034253&sr=1-1&keywords=full+sheet+labels
The labels are being printed in blue color instead of brown.What’s wrong?????????
I am sorry, it is your printer. It is not calibrated correctly.
I see.. However I printed them and they were great!!! Thanks for your labels,fonts and everything!!!
WONDERFUL!!
Hello Lia
Your labels are fabulous!! Can you tell me where you bought your spice bottles? Also, I’m wondering if they are air tight? I’ve been searching for air-tight spice bottles and have not had any luck. Thanks.
I think they are airtight. I bought them from World Market. Here is a link. http://www.worldmarket.com/product/stainless-steel-lidded-spice-jars-set-of-6.do?&from=Search

When I print with the avery8293 1 .5 in labels it is slightly off, am i doing something wrong?
Several options to consider. First, make sure you are printing the “Paper Size” is marked for actual size not fit. Second, if that does not work, know that every printer handles paper different. This is why I use full sheet labels and a round punch to trim them. You can find 1.5 inch punches at your craft store or on Amazon.
I am having trouble downloading these labels, any suggestions?
They are quite large files so you will need to give it a minute. Let me know if you are still having trouble.
I like some of the others can’t get the herb labels to download–have tried several times and fails to complete it at >90%
Was able to download pantry ones without incident. Can you e-mail me the herb/spice
ones as well Thanks
You got it!
Hi, I just found your site as I was searching for pantry labels because I just finished a kitchen renovation. I feel like I hit the jackpot! I love your pantry labels, spice jar labels and your canning labels. I can’t seem to download them though. I just get a black screen. I have a iMac. Can you help? Thank you and I will be back visiting your site often. Great work!
The files are quite large due to the chalkboard background. Give it a minute or two to load and it will come up. 🙂
If this does not work, let me know.
Yeah, I just transferred everything from my old iMac to a new iMac. I can’t get it to load at all on the new iMac. The only thing that comes up is a black page. You can’t see the little bar at the bottom that shows up as it is loading??? I gave my old computer to the kids and went and tried to load it there and it worked just fine. So, really weird??? I don’t know, but at least I got them. :o) YAY!!! Thank you so much for these! I have soapstone counters and these look so GREAT! Thanks for your note back too. So kind!
Oh GOOD! Whew!
Just found you! I couldn’t love your sight any more than I do, if I tried! Looking so forward to seeing all and everything you share…but hours have gone by, and I really need to get to my job! Thanks so much for it all!!!!! =)
Thanks Becky! You just made my morning. I am just revving up for the holidays so stay tuned. 🙂

Lia–I adore these labels, but can’t seem to download the file. My computer says the file is damaged and can’t be retrieved. Any tricks I can try to get the file to work?
Cheers,
Mandy
Thanks Mandy! Sometimes I think some browsers do not like the larger files. I will email it to you.
Lia , these labels are so cute. However I have tried printing them at home and at work. The problem is that most of the labels are light and have faint lines and/or small spots. These imperfections are evident when the download appears on the computer screen. Just a few labels are black . Can you help?
Hi Audrey, These are chalkboard style labels so the image is a weathered chalkboard rather than flat black.
I LOVE these and your pantry ones too. I can’t get this set to download all the way though-it hits about 90% and then stops. Anything I can do to get them as I’d love to have the entire set? Thanks so much!! 🙂
They are large files so some computers do have issues. I will email you with a solution.
love the labels, only missing two, minced onion and pine nuts. Any chance you could add them?
I printed them on paper, cut each circle out, covered each circle with a larger piece of clear contact paper, trimmed contact paper to about 1/4 each larger than circle and placed on jar. Now the labels are protected and won’t smear.
Wow, that is a great method Connie. I do offer customized labels in my Etsy shop.

Hi Melissa. I offer blanks in my Etsy shop that you can use with your own font. If you want them to match I offer custom labels too. Send me a message with your list through Etsy and I can give you a price for the custom.
I was wondering if you could make a blank set? I am starting a bath and body business and would love to label my herb and flower jars. I would also love a blank set of the pantry labels as well.
These would look just amazing in my business.
Thanks so much.

Aloha, I tried to download the spice labels too and was stuck at 95%. Would you please send me the smaller file also. Trying to get my granddaughter set up moving to Oahu next week for school. Mahalo
I just emailed them to you. It is a 13 mb file so I hope you do get it. You are a wonderful grandma!!
Hello,
i’ve been trying to download the file but i was unable to. Any suggestions on how can i get it?:)
Thank you!
This is a big file because of the background. I just reduced it a bit to see if that will help. Try again and give it a minute or two to download for you.
Hello, I adore your chalkboard labels as they are perfect for my spice jar project. Is there another way to download the labels? My computer seems to be stuck at 95% of the download. I am interested in the 1.5 round vintage herb labels. Many thanks!
I just replaced it with a slightly smaller file. Try it again and see if that will work for you.
I love your labels. I just finished attaching them to my new vertical spice rack last night and it looks great with the labels; however, it is missing a few. I did not see one for onion powder, pumpkin spice, and wasabi. Any chance you can create them?
Thank you!

I just used these to give my tired ol’ spice bottles a little facelift – these turned out SO cute!! Thank you so much for sharing them!! And thanks for having such a big variety of spice names ready to go – most sets just don’t have everything I need. These were perfect and adorable!
Yay! It is fun to have these little spaces looking nice too. It always gives me a smile when I open my spice drawer. 🙂
These are just too cute! Will be printing them soon. Thank you!!

You are so welcome Sandi.
Hi Lia! Love the labels! I too have tried to download the file and have been unable to. It gets about 90% done and then gets stuck! Would love to be able to print these! I hope you can help! /thanks!
This is a 14mb file because of the chalkboard image so it may be too large for your browser to download. I just sent it to you via WeTransfer. Look for that email and let me know if that works for you.
Yay! It worked! I can’t wait to update my spice containers! Thanks a million!
That is good news!
Hi Lia,
These are gorgeous and totally what I need to redo my spice jars! I am trying to download them but whenever I hit the download button, it takes me to a blank page. Am I doing something wrong? Thank you in advance!

Hi Elizabeth, It is a very large file. Just give it a minute to show up (it will look too dark at that point) then you can download from your browser.
This is gorgeous!!!! I must have for my kitchen!! 😀
You will love them!
These are great! Just wondering if you have blank labels available as well, for things like spice mixes that I make up myself?
