Beaded Wine Glasses and DIY crafts

image


Personalized wine glasses can be expensive…so why not create your own personalized wine glasses for your next party, get together or occasion — they’re sure to be a smash! Your guests will be able to identify their wine glass, while adding a colorful embellishment to showcase team colors, fashionable preferences, or unique designs. Giving your barware a makeover has never been easier, faster, or more inexpensive than with products from your local Dollar Tree.


Here’s What You’ll Need:

Seed Bead Kits

Pony Beads

Wire

Wine Glasses


Easy Step-by-Step Directions:


1. Cut one length of wire about 6-8 inches long for each wine glass that you’d like to decorate.

2. Choose a large bead and loop the wire through it. Twist the wire around the bead a few times to hold it in place, and then feed the short end of the wire through a second larger bead.

3. To bead the rest of the wire, choose smaller beads and use larger Pony Beads as accents. If you cover the entire wire with larger beads, your wire will show through and it won’t twist together as easily.

4. Finish decorating the wire by threading two larger beads onto the wire. To secure, the length of beads, pull the wire around the outside of the top bead and then through the second to last bead.

5. Twist the wire to secure the beads and then trim off the excess wire so it’s hidden inside the second bead.

6. Wrap the beaded embellishment around the stem of your wine glass and enjoy!
