Shulker Box Labels
by steveh259
Shulker Box Labels lets players attach a text label to a shulker box, so a stored box can be identified in an inventory, a chest row or a storage room.
What it does
Labels are set on the item itself. A shulker box carrying a label keeps it when picked up, so the name stays with the box while it moves between containers and inventories. Labels can also be displayed on placed boxes, either as a flat, regular box or in 3D isometric mode, where the label sits on the box in the world.
Servers that run it need every player to install it too. It is published for Fabric and NeoForge, with files for 26.3 released 2026-09-17. Fabric API is required on Fabric, and Mod Menu is optional there for opening the configuration screen in-game. The code is closed, with all rights reserved, and the release files span 12 versions.
Key features
Item labels on shulker boxes
A label can be given to a shulker box as an item, so the name is kept whenever the box is moved.
Flat and 3D display modes
Placed boxes can show their label in flat mode, appearing as regular boxes, or in 3D isometric mode, where the label is drawn on the box.
Label size options
In flat mode the label can be shown at a large or small size, which suits different storage layouts.
Labels inside the box
Players can optionally view a label from inside the shulker box, so the name appears where the contents are.

Use cases
Sorting a storage room
Labeled boxes in a storage room show which items each one holds, so players can find a box without opening every one.
Multiplayer bases
On a shared server, labels help several players tell apart boxes that hold different materials.
Who it’s for: Players who keep many shulker boxes in one place and want them named, and server owners who run a shared base where storage needs to be identified quickly.
