Decorating Wedding Glasses With Your Own Hands

At a wed­ding cel­e­bra­tion, every dec­o­ra­tive detail is impor­tant. It is the details that cre­ate the over­all atmos­phere and con­cept of the hol­i­day. They often receive spe­cial atten­tion from wed­ding pho­tog­ra­phers. You can buy such glass­es at any wed­ding acces­sories store, or by order­ing them from a dec­o­ra­tor. But you can con­tribute to the design of your own wed­ding, not just think­ing through the design of such a tri­fle as wed­ding glass­es, but also bring­ing it to life on your own.

How to arrange wedding glasses?

Before pro­ceed­ing to the direct man­u­fac­ture of wed­ding glass­es, you should remem­ber a few rules, fol­low­ing which you will receive a pro­fes­sion­al acces­so­ry.

1. Think over and sketch on paper a sketch of the future glass.
2. Select the appro­pri­ate fit­tings and mate­ri­als.
3. The glue for dec­o­rat­ing glass­es with rib­bons and lace should be trans­par­ent, so it is best to take the one that is used for acrylic nails.
4. The sur­face of the glass must be degreased before work so that the glued parts hold more secure­ly.
5. A tri­al ver­sion of the design is best done on a reg­u­lar glass.
6. It is nec­es­sary to apply glue and paint with paints care­ful­ly, with­out going beyond the con­tours, oth­er­wise the work will look unpro­fes­sion­al.
7. It is nec­es­sary to work in thin rub­ber gloves so as not to leave marks on the glass and orna­ment.

Master class: wedding glasses (option 1)

For the sim­plest option for dec­o­rat­ing wed­ding glass­es with our own hands, we need:

• the glass­es them­selves;
• a small piece of tulle;
• rib­bon;
• glue;
• rhine­stones;
• alco­hol;
• cot­ton swabs;
• rub­ber gloves.

1. We wipe the glass­es with a swab dipped in alco­hol.

2. We sew the tulle with a sewing machine, so that we get a bag.

3. We put the bag on the glass, tie it with a rib­bon at the leg. Cut off the excess piece of fab­ric. We process the edges of the tape so that they do not fray.

4. We glue the rhine­stones. We paste them ran­dom­ly or with a pat­tern. The glass­es are ready.

How to make wedding glasses (option 2)?

Anoth­er option for a more fes­tive dec­o­ra­tion of wed­ding glass­es with your own hands involves the pres­ence of artis­tic skills. To make glass­es, we need:

• glass­es;
• alco­hol;
• cot­ton swab;
• paints for paint­ing on glass;
• thin brush;
• rib­bon;
• pearl beads;
• vit­re­ous var­nish;
• rub­ber gloves.

1. Degrease the sur­face of the glass­es.
2. With a brush, draw a pat­tern on the stem of the glass and on the glass itself. The draw­ing should not be applied to the entire glass.

3. After the paint has dried, var­nish the glass­es.
4. We form bows from rib­bons, glue beads in their mid­dle.
5. We glue the fin­ished bows at the base of the bowl of the glass itself.

How to decorate wedding glasses with your own hands (option 3)?

As a decor, you can use not only rib­bons, lace and beads, but also three-dimen­sion­al details, for exam­ple, flow­ers from rib­bons or poly­mer clay. For glass­es with this decor, we need:

• glass­es;
• alco­hol;
• cot­ton swabs;
• rub­ber gloves:
• paint for glass “Hoar­frost”;
• adhe­sive tape;
• scis­sors;
• glue;
• beads of dif­fer­ent sizes;
• poly­mer clay;
• paints for paint­ing on glass;
• tas­sel.

1. We degrease the glass­es.
2. From self-adhe­sive paper, cut out two large hearts and two small­er ones. Glue them on the bowl of the glass and the base.

3. We cov­er the glass with “Hoar­frost” paint, but not com­plete­ly. After dry­ing, remove the stick­ers.

4. Draw an orna­ment on the glass with paint. Glue beads along the con­tour of the hearts.
5. We make ros­es from poly­mer clay, mak­ing their base as flat as pos­si­ble.

6. After the ros­es are ready, stick them on the glass. Glue a few more larg­er beads to the glass. The glass­es are ready!

You can also dec­o­rate a wed­ding cel­e­bra­tion with oth­er hand­made items: a pil­low for rings, cute bon­bon­nieres for guests, a wed­ding chest and a dec­o­rat­ed bot­tle of wed­ding cham­pagne.
