With clear labels on your spice jars, you won't have to search for the right spice when cooking.

In this guide, we'll go through why spice labels are so practical, how to make your own labels, and tips for the best results.

Why use spice labels in the kitchen?

When spices are stored in different jars or packages, kitchen cabinets and spice drawers can quickly become cluttered. With clear labels, you'll get a better overview and a more organized kitchen.

Benefits of spice labels:

• You find the right spice immediately

• The kitchen looks more organized and uniform

• Perfect when using glass jars or refill bags

• Less risk of mixing up spices

• Easier for the whole family to find what they need

Many also choose to use glass jars for spices, which means labels give an extra neat and uniform impression in the kitchen.

Labeling spice jars – best placement

There are several ways to label spice jars for the best overview.

Label on the front of the jar

The most common is to place the label on the front of the glass jar.
This makes it easy to see the spice when the jars are on a shelf or in a cabinet.

Label on the lid

If you store your spices in a drawer or spice drawer, it's smart to put the label on the lid. Then you can immediately see which spice it is from above.

Combine both

For best organization, you can place:

• a label on the jar

• a label on the lid

This makes the spices easy to read no matter how they are stored.

Tips for stylish and practical spice labels

For truly excellent results, here are some simple tips.

Use the same style for all labels
This creates a more uniform and stylish kitchen.

Choose clear text
Short and clear text makes the label easy to read.

Use small symbols
For example, a chili for strong spices or a leaf for herbs.

Adjust the label size
Small jars work best with narrow labels, while larger jars can have larger text.
