Good uses for the 0.5 in circle size

Round seals

A 0.5 in circle seal closes bags and boxes; 13 mm frames a logo with a ring of text.

Seal stickers

Small enough (0.2 sq in) to seal a cello bag and still show what is inside.

Sample and vial caps

0.5 in circle dots number caps and tubes; 13 mm is enough for a 2–3 digit code.

Planning boards

Wall planners take 13 mm circle markers – roughly 5 per square inch.

Design notes

Set your canvas to 188 × 188 px, put a 0.375 in guide inside it, and nothing smaller than 6 pt. Round shapes lose the corners, so plan on about 78% of the bounding box for content and curve text along the edge if you need more.

Check that 0.75 × 0.75 in of flat area (19 mm) is available before ordering the 0.5 in circle.

0.75 in circle adds 125% more.
