I am already thinking about the holidays and since we are cutting way back on things this year I want to give some of my summer canning away as gifts. I went looking for some ideas to make homemade canning labels. I found so many great ideas! One of the best finds of the day was a really neat website, Sweet Preservation. They have a whole page just loaded with free canning label download templates.
Fabric jam topper from domestifluff.com
My jams and jellies turned out great this year, so I will be giving them away the most so I was looking for jam labels and came across this fabric jam topper at Domestifluff.com. Again free downloads and I love FREE!
After I started to look at all the cute designs I felt silly, I am a graphic designer and can design my own labels but sometimes it’s just nice to let someone else do the designing.
So cute! Making a gift of your homemade goodies is fabulous!
Wah!! I love the free canning labels. I keep my spices in half-pint jars and I’ve been trying to come up with a cute labeling system so your links will help a ton.
But you’re a graphic designer…maybe you can share…
I love all the freebies out there like these but I feel guilty for never returning the favor. I have templates of my own that I’d love to turn into free printables but I dont’ know what it takes to add the cute graphics and color to them. Do these “freebie people” use a special software or what? I’d love to know. In the meantime, thanks for sharing these links on the Barn Hop!
Jill,
I would use PhotoShop if I was making them but there are so many programs out there. You could even do them in Publisher or even PowerPoint… it would depend on what programs you had on your computer. Microsoft Word will let you do a few things but a graphics program like PhotoShop or Illustrator would work better. Not sure if I answered your question:)
These are really cute! I am looking forward to sharing the bounty of our garden this fall and these will be perfect. Thanks so much.
They are cute and I can’t wait to attached them to my jars and give them away!
