table numbers continued

so we are getting close to finishing the table numbers.  we totally underestimated the number of nails it would take.  and it turns out not every hardware store carries those nails.  we basically took the last two boxes of nails so had to wait until they restocked.  even now we havent gone back to that hardware store to get those nails.  they are black panel nails.  home depot carries brown ones but we kind of wanted all of the nails to be the same color.

some of the numbers we started to just use one color of embroidery thread since we ran out of the ombre thread.  i actually went back later to go over the tops or bottoms of the numbers with lighter or darker thread to create the ombre effect.

im pretty happy with them!
