What are the practical options for applying decorative elements like wax seals and glued ornaments to curved glass bottles?

Members have identified two main approaches: adhesive solutions and direct application via specialist contacts.

**Adhesive/sticker approach:** - **Oakbank Products** — supply self-adhesive wax seals that look like traditional wax seals but stick directly to glass, eliminating the need to apply actual wax to curved surfaces.

**Direct application via specialists:** - **Andy Mallows** — recommended as someone with experience gluing decorative items directly onto bottles; members suggest reaching out directly for bespoke decoration work.

**Key considerations:** Members noted that standard distributors may not have the capability to handle bottle decoration efficiently, so specialist contacts or dedicated co-packers are the better route. The self-adhesive wax seal option from Oakbank Products sidesteps the technical difficulty of applying wax seals to curved glass.
