Our Labels Guide

Not sure which labels are right for your project? You're in the right place.

Whether you're organising a pantry, tidying up the laundry room, labelling storage containers or creating a custom space, we have a label option to suit your needs.

All of our labels are UV printed for a crisp, professional finish and are designed to handle real life. They're waterproof, oil-resistant, scratch-resistant and made to last 2–3 years or longer with proper care.

Types of Labels 

We offer three types of labels:

Type Custom Wording
Custom List Labels Yes
Premade Label Kits No
Custom Vinyl Lettering Yes

 

Custom List Labels

Simply provide your own list of names and we'll print exactly what you need. Order as few as one label or as many as you need. We offer a variety of sizes and shapes to suit different containers and spaces.

Premade Label Kits

Our premade label kits include our most commonly requested label names, carefully selected based on real customer orders.

Each kit includes professionally printed labels, an alignment ruler for easy application and expiry date stickers.

Custom Vinyl Lettering

If you prefer a label that looks like it is part of the container, rather than a printed label with a visible background, our Custom Vinyl Lettering Labels are the perfect choice.

These are the same label styles we use on our own Baskets and Fridge Bottles products, and are available in standard sizes and fonts only. Please check the product description carefully before placing your order.

Label Care Tips

To get the longest life from your labels:

  • Apply to a clean, dry surface.
  • Wipe away dust, oil and residue before application.
  • Allow labels to fully adhere before washing.
  • Avoid abrasive scrubbing directly on the print.
  • Hand washing is recommended, do not dishwash

With proper care, our labels can last 2-3 years or longer.
