FREE Printable Bacon Salt Labels
I created a NEW for 2023 set of printable round labels for the Bacon Salt. The labels were optimized for use with Avery printable labels. The fox design is a 2″ label and the modern minimalist design is a 2-1/2″ round label.
But you don’t have to use Avery labels. You can also use cardstock, if you prefer. You will want to cut out the round labels with either a pair of scissors or a round 2″ or 2-1/2″ paper punch.
