DIY Wooden Wine Glass Charms

With the holidays come holiday parties.  It is absolutely the worst to be at a party, set your glass down, come back and there are two or God forbid 3 identical  glasses where you placed your drink.  If we were in grade school I’d saw who cares, its all the same.  But Ewww.  LOL if you’re like me a kind of a germ-o-phobe, I’m betting the odds on picking the right glass.  Yea….NO.   So here is a quick solution for identifying your glass at your next party. It’s quick, cheap and super easy.  These charms compliment the Wine Caddy I showed you all how to make a few months ago.

Materials

  • 1″ Wooden dowel
  • Ribbon
  • Acrylic paint
  • Rust-O-Leum Clear Chalkboard paint

Tools

  • Saw (Hand or miter saw)
  • Scissors
  • Drill with at least 1/8 drill bit

OK here’s what you do.

Step 1. Cut the wooden dowel into thin slices (Aprox. 1/4″ in thickness) using saw.  I’m using scrap wood that was colored before using a spray paint.  I like this look because it gives an extra look to the slices on the edges.

Step 2.  Take a sanding sponge and sand down the rough edges.

Step 3. Use a drill bit that is at least 1/8 and drill a hole into the piece.

Step 4. Paint with Acrylic paint.  I like this paint because it dries quickly and I love the vibrant colors.

Step 5. Paint over it with the Clear chalkboard paint.  Allow time for it to dry.
