As ya'll read in my other post, I was having issues with my table numbers.
After all the lovely suggestions we went out and bought acrylic paint and stencils to just stencil on the numbers. That failed. Horribly. $5 wasted. The stencils won't stay down, paint gets everywhere.
We finally gave in and bought the $1 each boring stick on numbers. We shall see how well those work later tonight.
The other problem I've been having is holding the damn flowers down. We are submerging calla lillies under water. As we all know, flowers float. I've read online that silicone glue is the best way to hold the flowers down. The people online must have some secret that we are missing, because it's not working. We just re-glued with massive amounts of glue, maybe it will work now. But I'm sort of doubting it. You are supposed to let the glue dry 24 hrs, but won't the flowers die by then? Plus, flowers are wet, will the glue even attach?
I just need something to work right for me this weekend!
