Hi, everyone!


Consider this Wednesday’s You’re Home with Jill your holiday entertaining guide. It’ll be everything you might expect…I’ve got home essentials to help you be the perfect hostess, I’ve got a delicious recipe your guests will go crazy for, and I’ve got the greatest trick to keeping your guests' wine glasses straight!


Homemade Wine Charms


I know you have a game with letters that you and your family just doesn’t play anymore. When you find that game, here’s what you need to do:


Gather:



  • Letters

  • Dremel tool or drill

  • Silver floral wire

  • Super glue

  • Ball chain


Then:



  1. Drill a very small hole in the top of your letter with a small drill bit or Dremel.

  2. Take the wire, form a tiny loop, twist, and cut the ends short.

  3. Carefully add a drop of glue and insert the ends of wire into the drilled hole.

  4. Thread the ball chain through the loop and cut it to fit loosely around the wine glass stem.


Now, obviously you’ll want to make a wine glass charm with your initial first. Then, you’ll need to test it out on your favorite glass. If that glass happens to become full of wine, sangria, or your favorite beverage, that’s all part of the testing process. You’re welcome!


XOXO,
