My DIY Table Number Votives

So, here they are, my table number votives. I wanted something different than regular table numbers, so I figured, 'why not match the votive placecards?'

You can never have enough candlelight!

The vases are 6'x8' tall, and I'm deciding if I should use tea lights or pillar candles....

Great idea and they look fantastic. How did you DIY them? Did you buy frosted and then stencil on the purple? I saw someone else had reverse etched a stencil too....

I bought plain clear vases from cudge.net (pic below) and then with vellum paper cut to size, in MS Word typed out everything put monogram, printed it out, and w/double stick tape put the vellum on the outside!

It's VERY EASY!
