Types of Unique Wine Glass Charms
Wine glass charms are a must for any party. Each charm in a set is different and attaches to a glass. They help identify each guest's glass and keep it from ending up in the wrong hands. Unique wine charms also add a festive and creative touch to the event.
Unusual Shapes
A simple round wine charm is the most common shape, but there are other ones. Some charms wind around the stem, as if it is a vine growing up a tree. Other charms are made of straight wire that twists into unique positions. One of the most unusual shapes is a magnetic charm that attaches to the top of a glass. These are useful for stemless glasses and cups.
Unique Materials
Beads and figurines are the usual decoration for charms. Some are more creative, using materials such as:
- Feathers
- Clothes buttons
- Dog tags
- Political campaign buttons
- Ribbons
- Costume jewelry
Personalized Charms
Guests are always pleased to see a personal touch. A charm can add that feeling to a party and make a guest feel welcome. Charms that have the guest's name or photograph are very unique. Other special charms for guests are ones that relate specifically to the guest’s interests:
- Alma mater
- Hobby, like golf or art
- Occupation, such as lawyer or doctor
- Pet
- Favorite sport
Themes
For themed parties, an appropriate charm is important. Christmas charms are common, but there are other themed charms as well. These include:
- Poker chips, for a poker party
- Nautical figurines for the beach or pool
- Game playing pieces for game night
- College insignia for tailgate parties
- Whistles or noisemakers for New Year's Eve
Weddings
The wine glass charms at a wedding can play a dual role: besides keeping the glasses straight, they can also be a favor for guests. Key chains make a popular charm and favor combination. Bridal couples also use keepsake charms with their picture, along with the names and date of the wedding.
