6. Personalized Pressed Glass Herbarium Table Numbers
Table numbers are an essential functional element of your reception, but they also offer a fantastic opportunity to showcase your creativity. Personalized pressed glass herbarium table numbers combine vintage botanical charm with clean, modern lines. By pressing real leaves, ferns, or colorful flower petals between two panes of glass, you create a timeless piece of art that guides your guests to their seats with style.
To create these table numbers, purchase double-sided glass floating frames with metal borders. Collect small ferns, wildflowers, or eucalyptus leaves a few weeks before the wedding, and press them inside heavy books lined with parchment paper until they are completely dry and flat. Arrange the pressed botanicals inside the glass frame, leaving space in the center. Use a gold or white oil-based paint marker to write the table number directly onto the glass in elegant calligraphy. Close the frame, securing the botanicals and lettering in place, and display them on small wooden or brass easel stands.
