@bonbonisinlove: I licked them. There are many harmful things we put into our bodies daily, and dang it I like the way they taste!
I used an envelope moistener that I found in the supply closet at work.
Ha! I remember that episode. I think you would be okay, and I also love the taste of envelopes. I'm so sad that stamps are now self stick. :(
I would imagine you would get super dehydrated though. Perhaps if you wet/dampen a sponge, it would be a little more efficient than a q-tip?
I made more work for myself and punched hearts out of cardstock, ran them through a sticker maker, and sealed my envelopes that way...I didn't want to wreck all my hard work of DIY-lining the envelopes, haha!
I'll probably end up using the same q-tip method, unless I copy pink.sequins' sticker sealed method. Cuz her STDs were very lovely :)
A wet paper towel. I couldn't get Seinfeld out of my head, either! ;)
I usually get one of my little brothers or sisters to lick it for me. I'm evil!
I used a q tip like you did...workerd PERFECT for me...just the right amount of moisture in just the right amount of space :)
I made my husband lick ours but we didnt have many LOL... I cant do the envelope licking it makes me gag ... I can not believe some of you actually LIKE licking them
@Miss Godiva: Awww, thanks, dearie :)
For the record, no one noticed the sticker seals, but we did get a lot of comments on our scratch-off name/date I put on the STD cards.
I use a glue runner when doing a lot of envelopes, can't stand the taste. I use the peel and stick regular envelopes for things like my rent check and letters. :)
Slightly damp washcloth. We made an assembly line...my mom addressed them, I stuffed them, and my then-FI sealed them.
I, too, like the taste of SOME envelopes. Some just don't taste good! lol
I used a small paintbrush - like the kind that come with kids' watercolor sets and dipped that in water for our STDs. It was great. I'll be doing the same for our actual invites.
I hate licking envelopes.... I'm horribly afraid of paper cuts on my tongue, hahaha
Ladies! Get yourself an envelope moistener! They sell them at any office supply store. :)
Some glues are quite nasty, while others are tasty. But with over 150 invites or so I think we will just use a finger dipped in a small bowl of water.
Whatever works right?
"a la Seinfeld" ... LOL!
This thread is hilarious, I don't want to lick hundreds of envelopes either! Nor do I enjoy opening envelopes that have been licked by someone, for that matter!!

I know I'm crazy for using a q-tip dipped in water to seal my invitation envelopes! haha The instructions said only lick about 3-4 at a time and a la Seinfeld I heard it can be poisonous in high doses to lick the envelopes! What were the ways you guys sealed yours when you had alot to do?
