Bead Glass Charms

Make bead glass charms to identify your wine glasses. To make bead glass charms, take memory wire, beads of your choice, wire cutters and round nose pliers. Measure 3 1/4 inches of memory wire and cut the wire with the wire cutter. Be careful when you use the wire, because it has sharp edges. Take the round nose pliers and make a small loop the end of the wire. Curl the wire in a semi-circle shape big enough to go around the glass stem. Add the beads onto the other end of the wire in a color scheme of your choice. Do not fill the wire completely; leave a small section on the end and turn the end inward, so the beads can stay on the charm. 

Ear Wire

Get some 1 inch metal ear wire and some 6 mm beads. You can purchase these items at your local craft store. Open the ear wire and add one bead to the ear wire. Take the needle nose pliers and make 1/4 inch loop on one end. Slip the other end into the loop, and you have completed your wine glass charm. Make sure you use different color beads to identify each glass. 

Greeting Cards

Recycle your greeting cards to make wine glass charm. Take the greeting cards and punch out the design of your choice with a circle puncher or cut out in the shape of a heart. Punch a hole at the top of the card shape you cut out earlier. Take a cord or metallic pipe cut it into 2 inches and place it in the hole. Place the cord around the wine glass and twist it to close. Choose your greeting cards based on the occasion.
