So I took a stab at trying to make them somewhat how i was envisioning them. It's not quite the paper i wanted to use (i got a few sheets of pretty velliume but they dissapired on me ) So i tried it out with this confetti velliume and it came out ok. then i had a roll of navy ribbon and some cream/ivory ribbon with a scroll work design I put on the top and bottom. i just need to tell you girls GLUE DOTS ARE FREAKIN AWESOME!!!!!! I just hope they hold for 10 months anyway here it is

Re: MY TABLE NUMBER CANDLES
I really like that idea for the table numbers. I'm having candle cp so it would be great for me. Could you tell me more info on everything? I would like to know where you got them, go the paper, and if you don't mind how much was it all together?? Any info you could tell me would be helpful. Thanks ~Rach

Re: MY TABLE NUMBER CANDLES
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
the vellum(8x10 sheet), glue dots (3/16'), and navy ribbon (5/8')I got at michales all together maybe $12
the smaller ribbon (1/4') i got at target in the $1 section at target it cane in a set of 6 different printed wedding sayings and patterns together.
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 glue dots again ( i may replace them with 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 put 4 glue dots on the back then put it across the center of the navy ribbon. on the back of the navy ribbon i put 6 more glue dots( i may change these out with hot glue or the double sided tape) and voila table number candles
HTH if you have any questions feel free to ask away
