We didn't get started on the numbers early enough, and ended up doing them a labor intensive way, that didn't cost much. Students cut a stencil from tagboard, and used it to trace the outline of the numbers on the cloth. Then they used a brush and carefully painted the numbers with white acrylic paint (from the art room at the school). They look great, and the paint seems to be well stuck to the cloth. We'll see this weekend how durable they are.
