they were super easy...
you just need to be patient

the candles are those memory candles(about 8.5' tall and 2.5' across they were get this $1 from dollar tree awesome find

i went on works and messed around with a bunch of different fonts and sizes to get what i liked.
i ended up going to dafont.com and using a font called Dobkin .
The vellum was a little bit of a pain.
My printer didn't want to print on it i guess it was too thin so got the bright idea of using my glue dots to stick the vellum to a sheet of regular paper and it worked like a charm I carefully peeled off the vellum leaving the glue dots on the paper for the next sheet.
Than i measured and trimmed it down SO it just barely over laps in the back. Then took double stick tape put along the edges press hard to make sure it doesn't move while you wrap it around the glass.

Then i took the ivory ribbon and hot glued on the back then put it across the center of the navy ribbon. on the back of the navy ribbon used hot glue again to put along the tops and bottoms......and voila table number candles

HTH if you have any questions feel free to ask away
