Vellum Table #'s

For anyone doing the table #'s with the vellum paper and put ribbon on top and bottom, what are you using to seal the back of the vellum and the ribbon?

Are you talking about the candle table #'s? If so, I'm using double sided tape for the vellum and hot glue gun for the ribbon.

Yes I am! Don't you see the double sided tape?
That is what I was doing, but you see the tape from the back! Also, I had the candle burn for 6-7 hours and after it cooled, the vellum started to bubble! Which I am ok with because that is after the candle holder had cooled.

yeah, I guess you can see it but not much and no is going to be paying attention to the back. Just make sure you just put 1 strip. Oh, and make sure you buy permanent double sided tape. I bought removable double sided tape w/ o realizing and it wasn't holding. They will probably only be burning for about 5 hours.

i made mine and you can't see the tape at all! and I burned my candle too for like 7 hrs, just to make sure the candle actually lasted as long as the reception, and my glass was bearly hot.. I got the glass at the dollar tree but they sell the exact same ones with the same exact tag at Michaels too I think I have a pc in my album

I bought the glasses from IKEA. They are called MOJD (?) and they are actually beer glasses which bend in towards the middle. The vellum doesn't really touch the glass except around the top two inches or so, so it doesn't really get hot.
Also, I used votive candles. Do they last long enough? I burned mine for about 3 hours last night.
