Wine Glass Charms


Made these fun little wine glass charms as a small gift for the hostess of a cocktail party I was invited to last weekend - I used all sorts of various beads from my yummy lil bead cups that accompany my Club Scrap monthly scrapbooking kits and then attached them to some of the Club Scrap's "Let Me Count The Ways" kit's cardstock. I made a total of 6 charms using memory wire all in different shades of colors.

Supplies needed:

Cardstock, patterned and colored (Club Scrap)
"Holiday" Rubberstamps (Club Scrap)
Memory wire (ring size)
Beads
Jewelry tools
Wire
Piercing tool
1. Cut 6 pieces of memory wire approximately 1.5 loops long.

2. Bend one end of memory wire with tools to create a loop.

3. Thread beads (and charms if desired) in various shades of color (for example one wine charm red, one green, one blue, and so on)

4. Once you have all your beads on, use tools to create end loop.

5. Cut piece of pattern cardstock, rubberstamp holiday greeting and images. Ink edges.

6. Pierce six small holes across the paper.

7. Attach the charms to the paper by threading wire through the hole, around the charm, and back through the hole. Tape the wire on the back side, to hold in place. Mat entire piece onto another larger piece of cardstock, ink edges.

Good luck and have fun!
