3.5 × 3.25 in labels
In metric, 3.5 × 3.25 in is 89 × 83 mm; in everyday terms, a little larger than a square sticky note. Measured against everyday packaging, it suits the front of a 16 oz pint mason jar and the front of a 24 oz insulated bottle. For copy, count on about 21 lines of roughly 56 characters at 8 pt. A full-size UPC-A barcode also fits. Need it the other way round? 3.25 × 3.5 is the same label turned 90°, so it is priced and ordered here.

Good uses for the 3.5 × 3.25 in size
Front of a 16 oz pint mason jar
Covers about 37% of the way round a 3 in body, so the whole label reads face-on.
Face label: 24 oz insulated bottle
A 2.9 in diameter leaves the 3.5 in face nearly flat to the eye, about 38% of the circumference.
Instruction panels
Step-by-step directions in 21 lines of 56 characters at 8 pt.
Bag and pouch fronts
Stock bags plus 89 × 83 mm labels replace custom-printed pouches until volumes grow.
Design tip for this size
Keep text and logos inside a 3.375 × 3.125 in safe area and do not go below 8 pt. Leave at least 0.13 in between the cut line and any border you draw, or slight drift looks uneven.
On flat packs allow 3.75 × 3.5 in. On round containers the 3.5 in side wraps a 1.19 in diameter or larger.
Over 3.75 × 3 in, 3.5 × 3.25 in offers 1% extra label area, and the next size, 4.25 × 2.75 in, is 3% roomier. 4.25 × 2.75 in adds around $1.46 to a 1,000-label order.
