How to Make Jam Pot Labels

There's nothing like the taste of sweet, natural jam fresh from the fruit-bearing plants in your farm or garden. When sealing away your jam--whether for winter storage, gifts to family and friends, or for sale at the local produce market--your jars will need proper identification labels. It is, after all, important to be able to distinguish the raspberry flavor from the strawberry flavor. Fortunately, jam pot labels are easy and fun to make at home. With the appropriate computer software, you will be able to choose your own fonts and designs with which to identify and decorate your jam pots.
