I had been toying with ideas for our table numbers for quite some time and had rested somewhere between letting our pup and kitty handle the task or finding something more stylistically simple. Serving family style platters at dinner will take up a lot of table real estate, so I needed something that wouldn’t use up a lot of space. I wasn’t 100% sold on any particular idea until I discovered these glitter table numbers - they were placed on floral wire and floated above the centerpieces. Pure genius.

Without much of a tutorial, I headed off to my local Michaels to see what I could dig up for supplies. I managed to grab most of the 4" wooden numbers I needed, as well as some black glitter, some Elmers glue, black spray paint and spray glue. I also managed to pick up a pack of 12" long bamboo skewers at the grocery store.
Here’s the lineup.

Spray paint each side at a time, letting the first side dry completely before flipping over.
Let the glue dry for at least 15 seconds before you glitter to avoid clumping.
To coat the numbers in glitter, I poured it in a large cup and then swirled each stick around until it was completely covered.
Once it’s dry, lightly rub off any clumps.
