If you need a simple circle template for a craft, school project, or activity, these free printable circle templates make it easy to find just the right size.
The printable set includes circle outlines ranging from tiny ½-inch circles all the way up to a large 8-inch circle. It also includes mixed-size circles, concentric circles, and circle ring templates.
Download the PDF, print the pages you need, and cut out or trace the circles for your project.

Each size is on its own page, so you don’t have to print the entire PDF. Just choose the circle size you need and print that page.
The smaller circles are repeated across the page so you can cut out several at once, while the larger circle templates are arranged to make the most of a standard sheet of paper.
Mixed Circle Size Template
I’ve also included a page with several different circle sizes on one sheet.
This is especially helpful when you’re not sure what circle size you need. Print the page first, compare the different circles to your project, then choose one of the full-size template pages.
The mixed circle template includes circles ranging from 1 inch to 3½ inches.
Concentric Circle Template
Another page in the printable set features concentric circles, which are circles of different sizes that all share the same center point.
This template can be useful for making:
- Wreaths
- Targets
- Mandalas
- Circular borders
- Rings
- Layered paper crafts
- Geometric art projects
Use the lines as guides, or cut along different circles to create the exact shape you need.
Printable Circle Ring Templates
There is also a page of circle ring templates with a smaller circle inside a larger circle.
These are especially useful when you need a circle with the center removed.
Try using the circle rings for paper wreaths, picture frames, ornaments, borders, decorations, and other craft projects.
Ways to Use These Circle Templates
You can do so many things with a basic circle outline. They’re simple printable templates that are handy to keep on hand for all kinds of projects.
Use these printable circles for:

You can also print a circle template on cardstock to create a sturdier, reusable circle stencil.
How to Print the Circle Templates at the Correct Size
The circle measurements in the PDF are designed to print at their actual stated sizes.
For the most accurate results, select 100% or Actual Size in your printer settings.
Do not select “Fit to Page” or another scaling option, since that can make the circles slightly larger or smaller than the measurements listed on the pages.
The templates are designed for standard 8.5 x 11-inch US Letter paper.
Regular printer paper works well if you’re tracing a circle. If you want to cut out the circle and use it as a stencil or pattern, you may want to print it on cardstock instead.
