“Is that my glass or yours?” You don’t have to ask the question if you have these cute wine glass charms. Wine glass charms are like name tags. They are rings with charms and various beads that go around the stem of your wine glass.

Are you still looking for a few items to complete your list of Christmas gifts? Create a set of 5, 6 or more, and it will be a great gift for friends and family for the holiday season. You can also use these wine glass charms for your guests at your house party or family dinner. They will add colors to your table settings. It’s also a great idea to personalize with initials for your guests.

This is a fun and very easy beading project! You can make these wine glass charms in just a few minutes. You will need only a few items: Ear ring hoops, jump rings, choice of beads, charms as your center piece. Add your beads to the wire. Place your charm in the middle of the beads. With your chain nose pliers, bend the tip of the ear ring hoop to secure the end.

In these pieces, I used semi-precious stone chips in different colors: amazonite, amethyst, aquremarine, amber, rose quartz, citrine and lapis lazuli. You can use any kind of beads. Just make sure the hole of the bead is big enough for the wire to go through. If you’re new to jewelry making, this is a great beading project to have fun mixing alternating colors and textures!
