How to apply your custom wine labels

We’ve made it super easy to turn any bottle into a personalized keepsake! Follow these simple steps for the best results:

Step 1: Prep Your Bottle

Start with a clean surface so your new label sticks perfectly. Fill your sink or a tub with warm, soapy water. Soak the bottle for about 10–15 minutes to loosen the original label. Gently peel it off, then remove any sticky residue with a sponge or rubbing alcohol.

Dry the bottle completely before moving on.

Step 2: Get Ready to Apply

Lay the bottle flat on a towel so it doesn’t roll away.
Peel your new label from the backing and hold it in a U-shape—with the middle section slightly lower than the sides.

Step 3: Stick It On

Line up the label where you want it. Press down the center first, then smooth outward toward each side. This helps avoid bubbles or wrinkles for a smooth, professional look.

Step 4: Cheers!

That’s it! Your bottle is officially party-ready. Snap a pic, tag us at @HappyDayPaper, and show off your custom creation — we love seeing your happy days come to life!

BOTTLE + LABEL SIZING

When it comes to wine, size matters.

Selecting the right sized label for your bottle is key for making your bottles look like the real deal.

Not a good fit

  • Curvy, no flat parts
  • Label will not lay flat
  • Wrinkles and air bubbles will occur

Perfect fit!

  • Straight, tall shape
  • Label can lay flat
  • Top and bottom of label aren't wrinkling around curves of the bottle

Applying your camera labels

Remove the existing label. It peels off super easily!

Use the Photo Indicator as a guide to line up the label, starting at the top of the camera.

Repeat the steps for the other side. Press down all over to secure the label.

If you make a mistake, you can slowly and carefully lift the label to reposition.

Make sure you order the correct disposable cameras for the labels you choose.
