Beginner Tutorial on How to Use Canva to Design Your Product Labels 

Thank you!!!!❤ Canvas is the way to go. Just a little suggestion as an illustrator, I often use a grid image as background, then after the first printed test, I know we're I want to move any text or design, then I delete the background picture and boom! Ready to go🎉

Can I say thank you? Thank you so much. I have been trying to figure out new labels for my soap. I finally found someone who finally explained how to actually do it in Canva.

So this happened today and I have YOU to thank! I posted some of my newly cured and labeled soaps to my socials to get word out. 1 person from my town commented that my soap labels were elegant! ELEGANT!!! Now she wants an iteration of THAT soap with THAT style label for her shop!! I'm just getting my biz going, so you have no idea..o.k., you probably do have an idea, of how that makes me feel! THANK YOU TAMMY for this tutorial....again!!!!!!

Really helpful video🤩 ,,i just wanted to say for the printing part that you can print them directly from canva with ecardify labels..you can find it by searching canva apps,, than searching for labels.🙂

Thank you so much, Ma'am. I really appreciate this tutorial because because i struggled for 24hrs trying to figure out how to upload my labels on a template to print. This saved my life, thank you so much once again 💗 💓 💖 💕 ❤️ 🙏

Thank you sooooo very much for this video! I wanted to cry after trying Canva and not figuring it out. Thank for taking the time to explain things sooooo well!!!

This is a huge help! My labels are currently awful! Let's just say I'm much better at soap than at labels. THANK YOU so much for this tutorial!

Hi Tammy, I've made cold process soap for many years. This time I tried more texturing & I have to change my labels to cigar bands. I got the free version of Canva & I was just lost. I found your video & I was able to design my first cigar label !!! Thank you so much for explaining how to use it!!!!! You're the BEST!!!!!!!!! Nettie

Thank you from the bottom of my heart...I did it!!! It took a bit as I am not computer savvy but, watched your video 500 times...thank you ❗❗❗ Happy Easter to you and your family..

Great video! I’m a novice to Canva. Making label for a Hershey bar and this was a great help. Thank you!

Can I just take a moment and say “WOW!!??” This was the Easiest tutorial to follow ever!!! I’ve watched quite a few that made me want to give up but you nailed it. Thank you. I did have one question, on Canva pro in elements there’s something called Grid (looks like a landscape and some have lines) have you tried using that for duplicates? Or is it easier to just duplicate from each label on the page? Thank you in advance 😇

Tammy, you did a brilliant job of telling us about Canva. I've gone on and made myself a logo thanks to your tutorial. Now I'm off to start looking into labels, just an edit - I'm in Australia and when I created the label in mm's the measurements were more precise. This is the first Canva tutorial I've watched and I don't need to look any further. Well done. All the best. Ann

You have done an excellent job. Thanks for making the video.

Thank you. You did a great job. Excited about Avery and Online Labels tutorial.

Thank you for this video. Hand written labels take a lot of time. I’ll be practicing more now. I’m in the beginning stages of really taking my craft to a more professional presentation.💖

Ty Tammy...I need to upgrade my labels and this was a god send..

You can make the border thinner. Use the corner handle to make the square small. Then use the top/bottom/side handles to get it back to the size you want… with a now thinner border. Same for a thicker border- use corner to enlarge and reduce with side handles.

This is very helpful, as I am a beginner ! Thank you !

Thank you Tammy, for the Tutorial!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️you helped me so Much! ❤️

Thank you so much for this video it has helped me so much. I created a label tonight in Canva following your steps. One thing I did first was to fold piece of printer paper around the soap and actually measure the sides front and back. In Canva there is an option to put on the grid lines and rulers under file and setting. That option helped me distance my images on the label as compared to my measurements. I still had to print and resize some.

Thank you for the video! Definitely interested in the next one you have planned for printing with online labels please!

Thanks Tammy for a very helpful tutorial. I am going to give Canva another try!

I'll m so happy for this I was just on canva when I got this notification! Thank you very much for sharing

I know absolutely nothing, so I will be following you for sure

hey hi I just wanted to say thank you this realy helps alot

Great video to help get started making labels! You touched on the main topics, which will help me to design my soap labels. Thanks

This was so helpful. Thank you so much.

Thank you so much for this tutorial, I really appreciate you taking the time to explain this. Game changer for beginners ❤❤

Your delivery is natural and helpful. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you! you made this so easy to learn! i am so grateful to you!!

I learned a lot from your video. This is what I want to know all about making my own product label. Thanks so much. New subscriber here. God Bless you more ❤

Thank you. I'm trying to make my labels your video has really helpt me

Hello Tammy. I decided to give Canva a try and almost gave up. Your video is fantastic. That's exactly how I try to lineup my labels on plain paper first. Please continue doing videos. I am happy to subscribe. I wish you much success. Regards

thank you for your fantastic tutorial

Thank you so much for this! I got Canva for working with my Cricut, but now I know I can use it for my labels. Thank you!!!

Hi lovely, you did amazing and it made the process less intimidating for me. Appreciate this video. 😊

Exactly what I needed! Canva should pay you! I’m looking forward to your tutorial on Avery & Online labels.

OMG! You are an amazing teacher ❤ I have watch several Ytube videos on labels, logos for beginners but I tell what! You killed it 100% and to support you i just subscribed. YOU ARE GOOD 👍

Finally found the right video!! Thank you so much!

Oh my gosh, you're a legend!!!! Thank you so so much for this tutorial. The convoluted way I was doing labels was doing my head in and you have just made everything so much simpler - thanks from Kiwi Land

Thank you so much! I currently make my labels using Word. This look so much easier !!

Thank you. I have been wanting to experiment with canva. Great job!

Excellent job!

Oh my goodness! Thank you! I just got a new computer. A Mac and it is so hard to navigate as I was used to my Dell that I had for years and all the Photoshop programs I had on it. My Mac has none of that so I have to start over again and now looking for free label software. I can't wait to try this! And the label help ideas is incredible! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Your so informative and helpful! Keep up with the awesome videos!

made life a lot easier for me loved the tutorial 👍

Thank you so much for this I have been racking my brain on this and Canva , you made it so easy now. You are a gem.

you have great teaching skills

Brilliant tutorial, thankyou!

Thank you. I'm just trying to decide which program to go with, everything is new to me and honestly I find it a bit overwhelming.

Oh Tammy... You have been such a God send with this video... I've battled for a week to make a label and watching your video has made it soooo much easier for me... BTW I missed the naughty giggle.... But thank you soooo much... Lovies Vanessa from South Africa

You rocked it!

This video was wonderful for me! I have been trying to use Canva for my soap label and could not figure out how to copy and use duplicate but now I know thanks to you! THANK YOU!!!💕💕💕

So helpful. Thank you!

This was an awesome tutorial. Learned everything I needed to know. Thank you!

Very helpful! Thank you

This is the fourth tutorial I've watched on Canva and am still having problems, like when I dragged the box over under "shapes" it came out grey and printed grey, but will come back again when I'm less frustrated and watch the rest of your video. But really, I think It'd be easier to print out simple labels on Libra Office, cut them out, and glue them on.

Great tutorial! I'm going to have to check out Canva for my hand-dyed yarn labels. Thanks!

Loved the video! I have just started using Canva and there are so many possibilities. And so much to learn. I currently use cigar band labels that I created in Word, but it was tedious getting them all the same size. I find that sometimes the alignment is off when I'm wrapping soaps that have cured longer, so am continually adjusting my template. I'm excited to try them on Canva to see if they work better. I'm also interested in learning how to make labels for Avery and Online labels, and will look forward to your next video! 😊👍

Thank you so much for this video.

Thanks a lot

Hi Ms. Tammi!! Another great video... thank you for always sharing with us!!

Thank you!

Thanks again for another great video, this was so helpful! I’m a hobbyist and use the free version of Canva and hope one day to sell my soaps. I couldn’t figure out how to copy my whole label so I would recreate each one to duplicate it 🤦‍♀️, thank you! I’d like to know more about what you like and dislike about Canva Pro. Also if I want to download an image, where would I find images that are free and not copyrighted? Thanks again and so looking forward to the next!

Great videoTammi! Thank you!

You did great thank you for sharing. Can you share making a label the. Use it for online labels your saying it now as I’m talking. Yes what you said at the end of this video.

Tammy, try using mm instead of inches. I use mm and I don't remember seeing the imprecision you showed at minute 5. I love your channel, specially the business videos!

What kind of paper do you use when you print the labels out?

I just had a logo designed. When you are making these cigar band strips how on earth do you get the logo to fit? Edit and cropping doesn’t work and all the resize did was resize the whole page and not the logo.

can you do a video on how you make your candle and wax melt labels please

Thank you

I too do cigar band type labels for my soaps and they are a pain and get loose, which drive me crazy, sometimes I feel like I waste more paper just keeping them tight. I cut each and every one by hand. I’m trying to think of a better way. So is canva paid version better?

When using canva which would be better inkjet or laser printer for labels?

Great video tutorial. I looked at canva briefing. Maybe I need to take a 2nd look. Are you able to save an entire sheet 8.5×11 of say lavender with the 5 bands for later to reprint? Or you making them every time you need lavender? I also use cardstock for my soap bands. I use a cutter from Amazon, Firbon makes it. Much easier than scissors. Thank you Tammy! !

Am using canva too

how and what do i use to make my own logo?

How many labels will it print on one sheet?

Ugh. My square doesn't have a border and I can't see where I go to create one

How did you get the border

Hi Tammy, I was messing around with canva after watching your video. In your video you picked the square element to get started with your label. Your square element has the Grey border how do you get a border or remove it? Mine doesn't appear. I also noticed shutting off the button above the print on the print screen that says let the app change settings stops it from defaulting back to landscape. Thanks for any advice

What kind of printer do you use?

I downloaded Canva for the 14 dat trial. So far absolutely lost. This has helped some but I can’t say I’m even close to confident 🤦🏻‍♀️😬

I started making labels on Canva and they print blurry do you have any suggestions for me.

this is worthless. she said she's showing how to use it without a transparent background, when that's not the title of the vid

Hi Tammy! I LOVED your video! You are a great teacher and I learned a lot from you. Great options and I finally learned how to flip the text in Canva! You are adorable too Cheers!

awesome

I liked this. I'm still wrapping soaps with shrink wrap, the good kind, lol! I have thought of changing as pepple like all natural wrapping. I do use Online Labels. I was thinking of wrapping my soaps on paper and putting my label over it. You can't see through paper though and I still do summer markets. Of coarse I could go naked bars at market, but to much touching for my taste or leave one sample bar out. This is why I shrink wrap. My bars will not fit in any box I've seen! My bars are 4X2X11/2 inches and weigh 6-7 ounces. Yeah, their huge! My customers seem to love those honking big bars, lol! I charge 10$ for my fragranced bars. For my natural bars I make them in a standard Bramble Berry 5# mold and cut them at 1 inch. They fit in boxes! Yeah! I wish soap box companies would offer bigger boxes. I'd consider going down to 11/4 inch wide, but no smaller. I want my customers to know they are getting a great deal! I compete directly with Buff City Soaps. Their bars are small and they charge 8$, I think. Their bars weigh 4.5 to 5 ounces. I hate having to compete with them, all people who have used Buff bars say they are drying to the skin. Mine are not and that's where I win. I use oatmeal, clay, silk fibers, coconut milk/cream, shea and cocoa butter. They basically don't! That's why their bars are drying! Wow! I got off topic! I'm crazy because the ice/snow storm knocked out power for 8 hours today! Im in internet withdrawl, lol! Tammy, this was a great stab at doing labels and kicking out ideas. Your going to have to do product labels next, lol! Soaps are the easier ones. Why don't you use Online Labels, just curious? Jill

Thank you for the great video!
