I've made a 2022 UPDATED SLOWER VERSION of how to make your own custom water bottle labels! You can find it on my channel or here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VYS4n4-UniM.html
Thank you so much!! I love how easy and cost effective this is. It definitely adds that personalized touch that I was going for with our hotel welcome bags for our wedding guests ❤️❤️
Thanks so much for the simple way to create these labels. It did take me a minute to find a question/response regarding the Nutrition Facts outline, but after reading your response I was able to do it. I think my labels turned out really great and am sure my niece will love them. Thanks again!
Great video! Probably the clearest and easiest to understand and follow of all the water bottle label tutorials I've watched. TFS! Can Canva also be used for chip bag templates? Thanks in advance! PS..Congrats on your new baby!
Hi, thankyou for this video! I have 1 question.. My measurements are 8*1.4.. when I open it with word pad, the biggest I can go is 7.. is there any other free program that I can use?, that you know if.
You could try rOtating it sideways into landscape instead of portrait. You also might try changing the margins on your word pad as that is probably what is stopping it from having the full surface area. I use wordpad because it is free but if you have Microsoft Word it would probably work even better! :)
i love how easy you made this look. my daughters birthday is on the 17th and here i was about to order some from amazon. thank you i will now try to make my own. what kind of paper did you use?
I used regular printer paper and just sealed it with packaging tape to make it sturdy and more water proof! Happy Early Birthday to your daughter I hope she loves her labels!
@@OceanDevotion0812 Regular paper would definitely not do well if you don't seal it! You can laminate it, or I personally just used packaging tape on both sides to seal it in! Mine has held up fine in coolers and with condensation as long as I put the tape on it!
I don't remember the printer exactly but I believe it was just a cheap canon from walmart! I use regular printer paper for them and i just make them sturdier with the packaging tape! :)
Hello this was amazing. Question once it’s downloaded and out in word, would the label shrink in size? Would it download as it was preset I the website?
Mine stays correct to size once I put it in word, but to double check, you can right click the image in word and click 'size and position' and under size you can double check that the width and lengths are correct :) I hope that made sense haha
Wow that's so amazing and so cute I'm new here but I was so excited thank you ,I came on here to see how I would be able to make home made labels without having a Cricket machine and see this cute label thank you so much
Yes, you want the label to fit the same size as the original and Microsoft word prints items true to size once you size it right in the program. So definitely keep it to the size of the label you need in word :)
No I have only ever used the free option. I use the desktop version on my PC so I am unsure if the phone app version of it gives you that option or not. Are you using a pc?
Thanks so much I wish I could show you how my water bottles turned out for a power ranger birthday party I ended up downloading an image from google and I’m in love your so inspiring
Thank you so much! I am do glad you found it helpful. Water bottle labels are my go-to for all events! I made labels back when I got married in 2011 and now I make them for all events I do haha! They're so simple but I think they make a huge impression.
I made a rectangle or square in the color you want the border to be. Then add another rectangle in white ONTOP of the first one, just slightly smaller. It’s really just 2 rectangles stacked, but it gives the illusion of a boarder! 😁 I hope that makes sense. Then for the lines I just add lines in where I want them ontop of the rectangles.
I can't remember off hand, I just measured the labels that came on the bottle and made them taht size since alot of the bottles are different shapes and sizes!
Great Question! I actually am not sure what kind of printer it was, it was just a basic printer I think an inkjet. Nothing fancy. :) Sorry I couldnt be more helpful.
I love your video! i am a little new to canva tho and you moved too quickly for me, i gotta watch this is slow motion 😂 But i got the gist of it and for my sons 4th birthday this june i plan to make some lables for his class birthday party. Thanks for this video
I just finished editing a slower version that I will be uploading this weekend! I’ve had many people say I went to fast so I decided to do an updated one and slow down! Subscribe so ya see when it goes up!
@@BurstofSunshine oh yay I look forward to watching that video too 😁 i figured out my design and sizing i did a test print and its perfectttt. Im currently struggling with opening my design in a word app and copying multiple times to print. im on a mac and i have microsoft word and it just isn't working for me.
@@tiffy6257 I use Google Docs for mine now! It’s free and you can open it up on a browser! I do not have a Mac so I’m not 100% on how it works on there but I would imagine it’s about the same!
@@nicolegutierrez5821 I just made these labels for my sons birthday party I used regular printing paper and I put clear packaging tape on both sides of the labels to make them sturdier. you can also use photo printing paper it’s glossy you can find it at dollar tree!☺️ I hope this helps
Your videos are awesome. Thank you for sharing. Where do I find the step by step "slooowwww" instructions for the water bottle label making. Congrats on your baby :)
I apologize the video is so fast, I assumed a lot of people have a short attention span like me so I try to speed them up and sometimes I do it a little too much 😂 I will have to make a slower more in depth version soon!
I just used regular printer/copy paper, and it became more sturdy and more waterproof when I sealed with the packaging tape (but laminating works too, I just didn’t have one)
Thanks for the video. I have a few questions: 1. I cant change the format. Is That only possible when you have a canva pro account? 2. I want to put a personalpicture in a element figure. Is That possible? Thank you!
I am typically able to save as pdf, jpeg, or png with the free version of canva if that is what you mean. As far as a personal picture on the left hand side of Canva there is an option that says UPLOADS, if you click it you can upload your own images to our project! :) I hope that was helpful and answered your questions. If you have any more let me know.
Burst of Sunshine thank you. I didnt explain well what i ment. By size, i ment the size of the water bottle wrap. And is it possible to put the the picture in a element? I hope I explain well
@@kongswietmie When you first go into canva log in, i use a free account I do not have the premium, and dont use any templates starting out, go to the right side and click Custom Dimensions. I always change it to inches instead of px so I know my sizing is accurate cause px can get confusing to me. Then it will give you a blank layout exactly the size you need for your specific bottle wrap. And i apologize I am not sure how to put a picture inside of an element. You definitely could probably just play around on canva though and see if you can figure it out, thats how I learn most of what I know on there lol. I hope this was helpful.
I am so sorry it has took me so long to answer I have been prepping for a craft fair for weeks. I just use regular printer paper because its thin so it bends around the bottles nicely, Just be sure to waterproof it with tape so the water doesnt destroy your beautiful labels. :)
Kaitlynn Toomer I did just use regular printer paper and once I sealed it with the packaging tape it made it more sturdy and protected the ink from running
she didn’t mention that you have to have to have canva pro to do ur own size or at least for me it’s telling me I have to.Thanks so much tho definitely prepared for graduation and my 18th birthday🥰
I do not use Canva Pro I use the free version. As long as you have an account with Canva you should be able to create your own dimension project. I use the free account.
Hm I’m not sure I’ve never sold them! I would definitely consider how long it is going to take you to make them! Your time is valuable! And the cost of supplies as well! Be sure to pay yourself fairly for your work!
Omg thank you for sharing. I have an upcoming event and I wanted to make water bottles and cups and a few bags I will be buying the theme from etsy but wasnt sure how I was going to print them out. Any idea I can make some centerpieces in cocomelon theme like that.
Maybe make something to go around a vase or something for the middle? you can measure the vase or centerpiece to get your size that you need then edit on Canva to fit? I don't have any specifc ideas as i'm not super familiar with cocomelon :) I bet whatever you do though will turn out awesome!
I just used a cheap at home printer. Once you cover the labels with the packaging tape it makes them safe to be chilled because any water drops wont destroy your ink, the tape kind of protects it! :)
I usually just find free images on Canva or something of that sort to use as a background. :) Hope this was helpful. I would definitely use google to your advantage to find cute images you can stretch to fit your background.
I apologize for the delay in responding I've spent weeks prepping for a craft fair. I used regular printer paper and then just waterproofed it with tape. I like regular paper because it isnt too stiff which means its flexible enough to bend around the bottle good :) Hope that was helpful.
@@BurstofSunshine very much and that's ok love thank you so much for replying :) I think its a cute concept for sure and wasn't sure what was best :) hope your all good n well lovely thanks for your help mwha xxxx
I just used regular printer paper. Once you cover it in the packaging tape it will make it thicker and less likely to bleed when water is spilled or runs down the bottle. :)
