STICKERMULE
WHAT I USE THEM FOR: StickerMule is my go-to for all of my vinyl stickers. They have a great longevity as I’ve had several on waterbottles for years that go through the dishwasher on the regular so they stand the test of time. I am also obsessed with their custom printed paper packaging tape.
WHAT THEY ARE GREAT FOR: Vinyl stickers, holographic stickers, product and packaging labels and stickers, sticker sheets, thin magnets, paper packaging tape.
ARTWORK: They have downloadable templates for all of their products that you can input your artwork into. If you are not sure how to do that or if you’re doing it properly, they have design assistance to do it for you.
PRICING AND SHIPPING: They offer monthly coupon codes for certain products so sign up for their emails and check their promotions page prior to placing your orders. I do love StickerMule because you can order lower quantities than some other sites but like most printed products, the higher quantity you order the less per piece it is. I typically opt for the free shipping and get new orders in 2 weeks or less and reorders in a week (depending upon their busy season and the overall quantity of my order).
BONUS: You can order custom samples, typically 10 quantity for a low price. Which is great to get a sample of your exact item prior to making a large bulk purchase.
The StickerMule link is an affiliate link where you’ll save $10 on your first order and it provides me a $10 credit as well.

WHAT I USE THEM FOR: For product labels I typically go with StickerGiant and that is purely due to their pricing and material selection. In the past I’ve also found their sticker sheet pricing the most affordable but you’ll have to check that since pricing does fluctuate. They also offer vinyl stickers, labels, etc. similar to StickerMule.

ARTWORK: They have downloadable templates for all of their products that you can input your artwork into. If you are not sure how to do that or if you’re doing it properly, they have design assistance to do it for you.
PRICING AND SHIPPING: They offer monthly coupon codes for certain products so sign up for their emails and check their promotions page prior to placing your orders. They do have a standard minimum to order per design, which is 125 quantity at the time of writing this.
BONUS: You can order a sample pack of items but it is not of your custom design. However it is always nice to be able to touch and feel the materials prior to making a selection even if it’s not your artwork.

ADDITIONAL RECOMENDATIONS
STICKER APP I have not personally tried this company yet but know fellow small business owners who have and love them for vinyl stickers.
MOO Moo offers a limited selection of sticker options for general order packing. Their quality is nice but I personally have not found that it is worth the price compared to the quality and pricing of other vendors.
