get some clear sticker paper from staples/office max. print them on your computer, cut them out, stick them on, then epoxy over them, or just spray some clear on them. If you can find clear just get something close to the color of the plug. I love the clear paper.
if done similiar stuff for people using stickers or stuff i printed at home. I always epoxy over it, but have gotten away with just spray clear if i knew the plugs wouldnt be fished.
hope that helps. good luck, on the plugs and the wedding.

Glad and SAD
Glad to hear your getting Married- congrats
sad to hear your lathe got stolen Roy
perhaps you had the paperwork and serial numbers
to report it to the police since it was "brand new"
to all other S-B ers ...if you have a shed i'd be beefing up
the security on it.

If you go with the clear lables spray 1 coat of clear first them stick them on to that. They will stick better this way.
I know a few guys on the other site are using water transfer . You can make the print size & length what ever you want. With the stickers you are limited to the size of the stickers and most likely will have to use 2-3 of them.

Better than that; Get some "water-slide transfer" paper That is a long way to say "decal" paper. Print them on your computer/priner.
When you apply to the plugs there is no background from the sticker. Your wedding colors will show through the decal.
Same deal as the sticker just nicer and more professional looking.

you can also print on rice paper.
it will almost completely disappear under the epoxy when you wet it out.

Bill, is that what you use to do the sports themed plugs you've made? My son wants to do a Patriots plug.
