Do-It-Yourself


Hello! Hope ya'll had a wonderful weekend!

My girlfriends and I are hosting our first Wine Club here in Dallas this weekend.  It's a fun little club that we had back in Minnesota, and wanted to carry on the event down here.  We'll have girls, wine, snacks, and of course, the good old-fashioned dance party!

In preparation for this event this weekend, we need to prepare a menu, decorations, and the necessities of have enough wine glasses! In preparation my roommate remembered that we probably needed wine charms, especially if we were all drinking the same wine and have a lot of girls in close quarters with the same shaped glasses!

Right now, she's making her own wine charms.  We've been shopping for charms before and couldn't find anything that wasn't super generic, boring, or had the right personality for people our age.  She came up with the idea to make our own wine charm, so we can throw our personalities into it, and make the charms as we see fit! She's brilliant that girl is.

I've attached some pictures of the charms step by step.  They are super cute, and so easy to make! It's just some simple beading, and creating a catch to connect the wire around the stem of the glass! Easy, personable, and DIY - what on earth is better than that?

Mad props to Erin!
