What to put on candle labels

  • Scent name and your brand
  • Wax type and net weight
  • Approximate burn time (measured by you)
  • Safety warning: never leave unattended, keep away from children, pets and drafts, trim wick to ¼"

Tips

  • ASTM F2058 sets out the cautionary labelling candles sold in the US are expected to carry; many makers put the warning on a separate bottom label.
  • Measure burn time yourself; do not copy it from a wax supplier’s chart.
  • Heat from the flame can lift paper labels near the rim. Keep labels on the lower two-thirds of the jar.

Questions

What size label fits a candle jar?

For 8 oz straight-sided jars a 4" × 2" (Avery 5163) wrap works well. Tin lids usually take a 2" or 2½" round label (Avery 22807 or 22830).

What warnings go on a candle label?

Commonly: burn within sight, keep away from things that can catch fire, keep away from children and pets, trim the wick to ¼ inch before each burn, and stop using when ½ inch of wax remains.

Can the AI write my scent descriptions?

Yes. In “Write it for me” describe the scent and choose a tone. You get three wordings to pick from; always check any facts it includes.
