How to Create a Custom Mailer Box Sticker
Choose Size & Shape
Pick a standard mm/inch diameter or enter a custom size for your circular sticker.
Set Background & Border
Choose a color, an eco kraft-paper texture, and a border style to match your brand.
Add Curved Text
Type top and bottom arc text — it automatically curves along the circle's edge.
Download PNG or PDF Sheet
Save a single transparent sticker or a full printable sheet with crop marks.
🔒 Your Design Never Leaves Your Device
Most online sticker makers upload your logo and text to a server to render your design. This tool draws the entire sticker — background, logo, and curved text — using the HTML5 Canvas API running entirely inside your browser tab. There is no upload step, no server-side rendering, and no network request that contains your design.

Mailer Box Sticker Maker – Complete Guide
Eco-friendly packaging has moved from a "nice to have" to a customer expectation, especially across the UK and Australia, where plastic-free packaging and recyclable materials are increasingly a purchase driver for small brands. A well-designed circular seal sticker on a kraft mailer box does double duty: it closes the package and communicates your brand's sustainability story in a few curved words.
What Is Circular Canvas Text Clipping?
Circular Canvas Text Clipping is the rendering technique behind this tool. It combines two things: first, the HTML5 <canvas> element is given a circular clipping path so your background color, texture, and logo are contained perfectly inside a circle - no manual cropping in an image editor. Second, a curved-text algorithm measures each character of your top and bottom text, calculates the angle it should occupy around that circle based on the sticker's radius, then uses canvas rotation and translation to place every character precisely along the curve - upright and readable, just like a classic stamp or badge logo.
How This Generator Actually Works
As you adjust any field - size, color, texture, border, logo, or text - the tool re-renders the entire sticker on a hidden-resolution canvas sized to your chosen DPI (dots per inch), not just the small on-screen preview box. That means the 300×300 pixel preview you see is actually backed by a much higher-resolution canvas underneath (for example, a 51mm sticker at 300 DPI renders at roughly 600×600 real pixels), so what you download is genuinely print-sharp rather than an upscaled screenshot. When you click Download PNG, the canvas is exported directly with canvas.toDataURL(), preserving transparency outside the circle for a clean die-cut look. When you click Download Sheet PDF, that same high-resolution image is handed to jsPDF, which tiles it in a grid across an A4 or US Letter page based on your chosen quantity, adding crop marks and extra pages automatically if your quantity doesn't fit on one sheet.
Vector-Style Curved Text vs Manual Photo-Editor Curved Text
| Aspect | Circular Canvas Text Clipping (this tool) | Manual Curved Text in a Photo Editor |
|---|---|---|
| Skill required | None — type and it curves automatically | Requires familiarity with text-on-path tools |
| Speed | Instant, live preview | Several manual adjustment steps |
| Consistency across sizes | Automatically recalculates angle & spacing | Needs manual rework per sticker size |
| Cost | Free, no software needed | Often requires paid design software |
Mailer Sticker Sizing Guide
| Size | Approx. Inches | Good For |
|---|---|---|
| 25mm | 1 in | Small seal stickers, tissue paper, small bags |
| 38–51mm | 1.5–2 in | Standard mailer box seals and branding labels |
| 64–76mm | 2.5–3 in | Larger boxes, statement branding, gift boxes |
| 102mm | 4 in | Large mailer boxes, posters, promotional labels |

Troubleshooting Common Issues
Explanation: An empty sticker (no arc text, center text, or logo) isn't worth exporting. Solution: Fill in at least one text field or upload a logo, then try downloading again.
Explanation: Only PNG and JPG logo files are supported; other formats or corrupted files may fail to load. Solution: Re-save your logo as PNG or JPG and upload it again.
Explanation: Long arc text on a small sticker diameter has less circumference to work with. Solution: Shorten the text, reduce the Arc Text Size slider, or choose a larger sticker diameter.
Explanation: Low export resolution produces fewer pixels per printed inch. Solution: Set Export Resolution to 300 DPI or 600 DPI before downloading, especially for smaller sticker sizes.
Explanation: Some home printers have a non-printable margin near the edges. Solution: Reduce quantity slightly so the auto-generated grid centers with more margin, or check your printer's borderless printing setting.
Frequently Asked Technical Questions
Question 1: How does the curved text actually bend around the circle?
Answer: For each character, the tool measures its rendered width, converts that width into an angle based on the sticker's radius (arc length ÷ radius = angle in radians), then uses ctx.rotate() and ctx.translate() to position and orient that single character along the circle before drawing it - repeating this for every character in sequence.
Question 2: Why clip the canvas into a circle instead of drawing a square image and cropping it later?
Answer: Clipping with ctx.arc() and ctx.clip() before drawing the background and logo guarantees a perfectly round, transparent-cornered PNG straight out of the browser, with no separate cropping step required in an image editor.
Question 3: Why doesn't the exported sticker look blurry like a screenshot?
Answer: The canvas's actual pixel dimensions are calculated from your chosen diameter and DPI (for example, 51mm at 300 DPI renders at roughly 600×600 real pixels) rather than being a fixed small preview box stretched larger, so the exported PNG is genuinely high-resolution.
Question 4: How is the printable sheet PDF generated?
Answer: The rendered sticker canvas is exported once as a PNG data URL, then jsPDF places that image repeatedly in a calculated grid across an A4 or US Letter page based on your sticker size and quantity, adding optional crop-mark lines and new pages as needed.
Question 5: How is my logo embedded into the circular sticker?
Answer: The uploaded image is read as a Base64 data URL using the FileReader API, loaded into an in-memory Image object, then drawn onto the already-clipped circular canvas, scaled and centered according to the Logo Size slider.
Question 6: Does this tool need an account, server, or API key?
Answer: No. The Canvas API, curved-text logic, and jsPDF all run as ordinary JavaScript already loaded by this page — you never need an account or any API key to use it.
Glossary of Terms
- Circular Canvas Text Clipping
- A canvas-based technique that clips artwork into a perfect circle while curving text around that circle's circumference using per-character rotation.
- Curved / Arc Text
- Text rendered so each character follows a circular path rather than a straight line, commonly used on badges, stamps, and round stickers.
- DPI (Dots Per Inch)
- A measure of print resolution; higher DPI produces sharper printed stickers, with 300 DPI being a common print-quality standard.
- Kraft Paper
- An uncoated, recyclable brown paper commonly associated with eco-friendly and plastic-free packaging.
- Crop Marks
- Small guide lines printed at the corners of a design to show exactly where to cut, used when multiple stickers are tiled on one sheet.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, completely free with no watermark, no signup, and no limit on how many stickers you design or download.
No. The entire sticker, including any logo you add, is drawn and exported entirely inside your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Nothing is transmitted over the network.
It's the technique this tool uses to build each sticker: the canvas is clipped into a perfect circle for the background and logo, while a separate curved-text algorithm rotates each character around that circle so text follows the sticker's curve like a badge or stamp.
Yes. Enter separate text for the top arc and the bottom arc, and the tool automatically curves each character along the circle using trigonometry-based canvas rotation - no image editor required.
Common sizes are 25mm/1in for small seals, 38mm/1.5in and 51mm/2in for standard branding labels, and 76mm/3in or larger for statement stickers on bigger boxes. You can also enter a fully custom size in millimetres or inches.
