Frequently Asked Questions

• What is a bleed in printing?

  Bleed is a design element that extends your artwork or background colors beyond the final trimmed edge of your product. It serves as a safety margin, ensuring you get clean, borderless edges without any unwanted white strips if the paper shifts slightly during cutting. Kittl includes bleed settings for all candle label sizes, preset by jar size so you don't have to calculate them manually.

• What size label do I need for my candle jars?

  Common sizes are roughly 2.5" × 1.5" for a 4 oz jar, 3" × 2" for an 8 oz, and 3.5" × 2.25" for a 12 oz tumbler. Kittl includes presets for 4 oz, 8 oz, 12 oz, tumblers, and tins, so you can start at the right size.

• What information is commonly included on a candle label?

  Candle labels often include the wax weight, maker or distributor name, address, safety warnings, burn instructions, and scent information. Requirements can vary by location, so sellers should check local labeling rules before printing. Kittl's candle label templates include placeholder sections for each of these fields, sized to fit 4 oz, 8 oz, and 12 oz jars.

• Can I preview my label on the actual jar before printing?

  Yes. Kittl's jar mockup tool wraps your flat label around a curved vessel, so you can see exactly how it sits on the glass before you commit to a print run. Mockups are available for common jar sizes including 4 oz, 8 oz, and 12 oz.

• Can I export print-ready files for my printer, Avery, or Sticker Mule?

  Yes. Kittl exports print-ready PDF, PNG, and SVG files with bleed and CMYK color profiles, so your files match what local printers, Avery, and Sticker Mule ask for. Label dimensions and bleed settings are preset for common candle jar sizes.

• Do I need design experience to make a candle label in Kittl?

  No. Kittl includes candle label templates where you swap the scent name, colors, and logo. The layout, fonts, and spacing are already set to print-ready standards, so you control the brand without building from scratch.

• Can I design a whole seasonal collection without rebuilding each label?

  Yes. With Kittl Flows you design one base label and generate the full scent lineup from it, carrying your typography and packaging system across every jar automatically.

• What is a wraparound label?

  A wraparound label is a flexible label designed to completely or almost completely encircle a container, providing 360-degree coverage. It typically wraps around the full body of a candle jar, allowing more space for branding, scent details, and safety information. Kittl includes wraparound label templates sized for common candle jar diameters.

• Does Kittl cover more than labels — packaging, social, and wholesale?

  Yes. Alongside jar labels, Kittl includes lid stickers, gift box designs, Instagram launch posts, market signage, and wholesale line sheets. Every asset is built to match the same brand system, so your packaging, social content, and retail materials all look like they came from the same place.
