DIY Easy Tip - For all the girls doing votive placecards!!

I practiced yesterday on few votive placards and was surprised how easy it is to do them!!!!

I bought Easy Peel Clear Mailing Labels - (Avery 8663) and they were the easiest thing to print and put on the votives.

They are clear with a little frost and look just like vellum paper......all you do it print (you download the template from avery.com ) and voila!! it takes about 10 seconds to make one.....and they look great!!!!

Just wanted to share this easy tip with you girls!!!

Re: DIY Easy Tip - For all the girls doing votive placecards!!

Thanks Anita! I was about to have someone else do these for me, b/c I've run out of energy and time!

Just ordered the labels, and I have frosted votives, so I hope mine are just as successful as yours!

You are welcome!! I ordered my votives from cudge.com so I think we have the same ones (the frosted ones)...they really look nice and take about 10 sec to peel off and put on the candle!!!!!

I went to the Staples by me, and they didn't have them in stock. But Staples.com has them. They're $25 for a package of 250 labels...

I went on ebay, and found them for $14 from this seller:
plutodirect

Re: DIY Easy Tip - For all the girls doing votive placecards!!

I'm adding this to mine as well. I wanted to go the clear label route, but I heard it bubbled. If somone could post a photo, that would be excellent!

Re: DIY Easy Tip - For all the girls doing votive placecards!!

They don't go all the way around though...but it's fine b/c the labels are frosted, and so are the votives.
