Sticker Sizes

Sticker sizes show us the different shapes and dimensions of various unique sticker designs. Knowing the standard sizes of stickers is essential so it’s easier to craft custom stickers that fit perfectly to the objects or surfaces they’ll be attached to.

Sticker Sizes Standard

Small Circle Stickers (2 x 2 inches)

Small Circle stickers are some of the most common types of stickers with a size of 2 x 2 inches. They’re ideal for logo stickers and badge stickers that display a company’s brand and an organization’s official name. However, the limited space of Small Circle stickers might force creators to lessen the text to be inserted, but they’re a good choice as the stickers of objects like phone cases, tumblers, clothing tags, notebooks, and product packaging.

Rectangular Stickers (3.5 x 2 inches)

Rectangular stickers have a standard size of 3.5 x 2 inches and we can see a lot of them being used as the labels of a wide variety of products. They’re roughly the same size as business cards and they’re attached to wine bottles, water bottles, jars, and other types of handheld containers. Rectangular stickers are good for displaying brands because they have enough space for logos and readable company name prints.

Oval Stickers (2 x 3 inches)

Oval stickers have a standard size of 2 x 3 inches and are utilized similarly to Small Circle stickers. They’re also used for vanity designs such as stickers of cartoon characters and cute illustrations made for kids. Oval stickers are easy to personalize with distinct brand images, background colors, and more without white edgings.

Square Stickers (3 x 3 inches)

Square stickers are commonly sized as 3 x 3 inches; the one thing to remember about designing square stickers is that their width and height must have the exact same measurements like 4 x 4 inches because if not, they won’t have a perfect square shape. Square stickers can perfectly display just about any art style or brand image, especially if they’re handled by professional designers that know how to take advantage of their dimensions.

Big Circle Stickers (5 x 5 inches)

As their name implies, Big Circle stickers are basically just larger versions of Small Circle stickers. They’re good as logo stickers and badges with more visual elements and printed text such as company names and business slogans. Their perfect round shape is easy to decorate with graphics using any user-friendly photo editing app.

Bumper Stickers (11.5 x 3 inches)

Bumper stickers are sized 11.5 x 3 inches and are some of the largest stickers available in the market. These stickers are specifically designed to be attached to car bumpers, truck bumpers, windshields, or any outer surface of vehicles. The material of Bumper stickers is more durable than other types of stickers and their adhesive is a lot stronger and long-lasting.
