Wine Glass Charms

Anyone know where I can find these?? I'm looking for them in bulk!! Any ideas??? They are sooo expensive, I don't want to go too cheap, but I would like to find the best price for them! I love them and if I can find them cheaper, that will make me very happy! Thanks!

Re: Wine Glass Charms

I saw them in Fortunoff's catalog but I don't know how much they were.

Re: Wine Glass Charms

Thanks, I thought I saw them in Fortunoff's too... For some reason their website is going slow today, I'll have to make sure I check them out

Re: Wine Glass Charms

You can make them yourself for A LOT less than you can buy them. All you need is some jewelry wire, charms and a jewelry plyers.

Re: Wine Glass Charms

I agree with Stef. I was in Michaels the other day and they had a row full of inexpensive litttle charms for every theme. If you have some time on your hands it could be a fun little project!

Re: Wine Glass Charms

You can get them in bulk for pretty cheap at www.beadland.com

Re: Wine Glass Charms

Thanks! I was thinking of doing them myself... I just have to find some way to teach me to do it! I guess it's pretty simple! I'll have to check all my options out! Thanks again!

Re: Wine Glass Charms

couldn't these somehow be used as a favor/ part of favor idea? I mean, they will be useful at the wedding anyway, woudn't they? especially if you found at least 8 diff ones (10 or 12 if bigger tables) then everyone at the table would have different ones. Only problem I can see is the waitstaff taking drinks away with them on it... hmmm I might reconsider.

Re: Wine Glass Charms

Thanks for your concern.. I'm actually looking into them for the favors, I'm thinking of using splits of wine for my place card holders and thought this would be a nice favor! They'll be able to take the wine and the charms home I didn't even think of people using them at the actual wedding

Thanks again mims!

Re: Wine Glass Charms

I'm not sure how much they were but we had seen them at Target and they had a couple of different themes to them. Good luck

Re: Wine Glass Charms

Thanks I will check them out!!! Maybe I can find them cheaper there!

Re: Wine Glass Charms

I think they would go nicely with splits as a favor, but maybe make it so that they wont use em during? Keep em wrapped or something? I dont know, some kindof presentation that would not encourage the loss of the party favor before the party is even over LOL!!! But a VERY Cute idea. I have seen them at Pier One before, but I am sure they are $$$$$ there.

Re: Wine Glass Charms

A couple of girls on WC made them for their favors. They were beautiful. My FI and I were thinking about them but we are almost decided on CDs.

Re: Wine Glass Charms

Thank you!!! Those are beatiful!! And those cards are EXACTLY what I was looking for!!! My FH is afraid that some people will not know what they are and those cards explain it all!! Thank you!

Re: Wine Glass Charms

I was planning on doing wine glass charms as well thanks for all the great ideas.
I got a bead catalog with all the makings for the charms from jewlerysupply.com

Re: Wine Glass Charms

There is also a website for the actual cham. They have a whole variety to choose from sunshinecrafts.com

Re: Wine Glass Charms

I was set on doing wine glass charms as our favor up until 1 month before the wedding.
Here are links to all of the sites that were willing to give a deal for favor orders.

Good Luck

Re: Wine Glass Charms

I gave out wine charms as favors. Each one was different and represented something personal about each of my guests. They were custom made at $3 each at www.beadland.com. Ask for Kelly Menges, she made them all, very quickly.
