Wilton Favor Tin Instructions

IMPORTANT: Read these instructions completely before beginning

1. There are two different label sheets that have been included in the kit you purchased. The round label is to be applied to the lid of the tin. The rectangular label is to be applied around the tin after it has been filled - this labels actually seals the tin. Click on the links below to download the templates you will need:

Round Label Template (Word File)
Hints and Tips:
The template is in table format, therefore, you will see squares, not circles.
If you would like add color to the entire label, you will need to shade all white cells.

Rectangle Label Template (Word File)
Hints and Tips:
We recommend only using one line of copy.

2. Personalize

• Consider adding photos, monograms, or messages on the labels
• Use clip art to add photos or graphics
• Text can be inserted to personalize each tin with names, dates, or a special message
• We suggest using only one line of text on the rectangular label

• Refer to your printer's manual for loading and feeding recommendations. Many printers have special instructions for loading labels.
• Do not feed labels through the printer more than once. Repeated heat from the printer may cause adhesive to soften making the label sheet unusable.

4. Assemble the Tins

• Fill favor tin and replace lid
• Use care when applying label to the lid of the tin - labels may be difficult to remove
• If desired, add ribbon or other decorative accents to the tin
