How to make wedding glasses with your own hands?

When preparing for a wedding celebration, there are always a lot of worries, because every detail needs to be thought out, otherwise the celebration can be spoiled. That is why many resort to the services of managers, who take the lion's share of all organizational issues. However, there are details with which you can cope on your own, and the design of wedding glasses refers to just that.

Deep in the past, the tradition to beat the dishes "for good luck" has passed, it has been replaced by a new trend - to preserve their wedding glasses as the very first family value and real relic. They have been with their spouses for many years and are even handed over to their children, and for each family anniversary they are taken out of a secluded place and put on a festive table to once again recall the most tender, romantic and reverent moments of their day.

It is better to immediately abandon all types of purchased merchandise, since the production put on stream can hardly offer anything worthy for such a solemn event. Most newlyweds prefer exclusive decorations that will fully match the theme and style of the wedding, as well as personal tastes and features of the newlyweds.

Regardless of who exactly will be engaged in decorating wedding glasses, the first thing you need to choose the appropriate option from a variety of existing ideas of decor. As a rule, use one of the following designs:

• finishing with satin ribbons;
• lace or burlap;
• cloth;
• large and small sparkles;
• rhinestones or beads;
• engraved;
• painted paints;
• flowers alive, and also molded from clay and cold porcelain.

Some newlyweds prefer to decorate only the stem of the wine glass, and engrave or monogram with paints on the walls. Some create more voluminous decorations.

Anyone who decides to decorate their wedding glasses with flickering sparkles, as well as rhinestones or beads does not fail, because this consumable always looks solemnly festive and solemn. The pattern on such a glass is performed in any thematic ornament, only that one side of the glass remains undecorated.

The simplest pattern is formed by one- or two-color material. In this case, rhinestones lay out various monograms, hearts, names of young people or simple curlicues. If you wish, you can put more complex ornaments - for this they are printed on plain paper, applied from the inside and along the lines and put glitter.

The decor with the help of sparkles is much simpler - for it you just need to dip a thin brush into the glue, then into the sparkles, and bring out the pattern or draw a picture.

Products, decorated with lace, look very gentle, and to make such a decoration is quite simple - just enough to paste over the outer part of the glass with a cloth. Usually they use golden or silvery lace, but Lurex in ivory and vanilla tones looks no less impressive. The shade of the fabric should match the overall color of the wedding.

The elegant belt at the very base of the wine glass looks quite stylish; wine glasses with a lace “skirt” also look interesting.If you wish, you should add decoration with various relief elements - flowers, as well as leaves and many other details.

Openwork materials are often combined with flowers and beads, but it is important not to overdo it - wedding glasses should be an elegant thing, not alyapistoy bad taste.

Ribbons can give a solemn look to absolutely any product, they perfectly complement the lace lace, painting and shiny rhinestones. Smooth ribbons of shiny fabric wrap around the legs, as well as the glasses themselves. They make stylish roses and even stick whole bouquets to the glass, complementing them with beads and glitter.

Most often, monochrome ribbons are chosen for the decoration of glasses, but you can also use colored materials - for example, black, dark gray, blue and blue are suitable for the newlywed, and white and pale pink shades are preferable for the young spouse.

Art painting of glasses has become a very worthy idea, but it should be used only if the bowl remains clean and only the leg of the glass is covered with paint. Then the sketch becomes the basic element of the decor. Usually, acrylic paints are used to apply the pattern.

The glasses decorated with feathers look rather extravagant. Of course, such an ornament is hardly suitable for a classic wedding, but just for thematic events. Feathers are well combined with a similar decor on the dress of a young wife, and such glasses look good if similar decorations are present in the bouquet. Feathers are usually combined with beads, sparkles and flowers. By the way, this option is most often used in organizing a wedding celebration in the style of Chicago, in this case, lush feathers very well in harmony with all the decor and costumes of the invited guests.

Decoration with fresh flowers is one of the most romantic options for decorating wine glasses. Of course, such a composition can not be called durable, but it is truly the personification of tenderness, grace and romance. Artificial flowers can also be used, but they, of course, cannot be compared with living stems, their lines and unique aroma.

If you know how to sculpt jewelry from plastic, then creating a stylish decor of porcelain or polymer clay for you is absolutely not difficult. It’s quite possible to make various buds, delicate petals and small flowers on your own. In this case, as long as the clay is not dried, the petals can give the desired bend, smooth lines and even adjust the shade.

In any of the considered types of wedding glass decoration, one can always find the possibility of transforming wine glasses or glasses into stylized newlyweds - the bride and groom. Such attributes look quite catchy, and make them quite simple.

For example, if you want to get the "groom", you need to take the material of white and dark color, a couple of small beads and form a shirt (wrap white cloth around the wine glass) with a tuxedo (here you just need to attach lapels). And for the bride to cut a lush openwork skirt, and the corsage to perform from satin ribbons. Attire "young" can be decorated with sparkles and rhinestones.

When ordering the decoration of wedding glasses, the young ones sometimes have “eyes of a diverge” from an abundance of luxurious and stylish options. To make the right choice, you should take into account a number of basic recommendations.

• Making wine glasses should be optimally written in the general theme of the wedding celebration. If you hold an event in a rustic style, then wine glasses can be draped with sacking. If the design is carried out in the tradition of vintage and style chebbi-chic, then you should prefer lace, ribbons or cameo.
• It is very important that the color scheme of the glasses is in harmony with the basic shades prevailing in the decor of the room where the celebration is held. Tint palettes must necessarily match, it is categorically not allowed to use contrasting shades. For example, an orange décor of wine glasses is unlikely to fit into a silver or lilac wedding, and gold in a pot will look out of place with a silvery tint to the room.

Let's talk a little about glasses. Their shape should be quite beautiful and comfortable, since the young spouses will have to hold them in their hands for a rather long time.

Traditionally used wine glasses on an elongated thin leg, although you can choose any other options. For example, paired wine glasses on one common stem are quite popular - they, in fact, represent a rather attractive stand with a pair of recesses into which glasses are inserted. If desired, you can give preference to glasses in the form of a hexagon, concave glasses and other original products.

Now we will focus on the technical features of the design of glasses in various styles. There are quite a few interesting master classes on their decoration, but we will focus on the main points.

First, you should follow several important rules:

• before starting work, be sure to thoroughly wash the glasses and wipe them with alcohol in order to degrease their surface;
• hands when decorating glasses should certainly be clean, so keep nearby wet wipes;
• for fixing decorative elements, you need to use glue, but each variant has its own adhesive base: for example, fabric, feathers and laces are very well attached to the PVA, bright glitter, rhinestones and beads are preferably glued with compositions based on cyanoacrylate, and large beads are fixed with gun or liquid nails.

Instructions for decorating wine glasses with different finishing materials have their own nuances.

So, if you drape a glass with fabric and laces, it is enough just to wrap the glass with a cloth and fix the edges with glue, preferably PVA.

The choice of drawing completely depends on the master's abilities and on how much he can draw all the necessary openwork elements and elegant curls. After the drawing is applied, it should be covered with acrylic varnish on top - it is used as a fixer, so that the image is not washed away under the influence of detergent and not worn out over many years of storage.

When decorating glasses with painting, professionals advise to additionally decorate the foot with spray paint. In this case, the bowl should be closed with a newsprint paper pasted with adhesive tape. Otherwise, you risk staining the paint and the bowl, which will negate all efforts to decorate his glasses.

As a rule, individual petals are strung from the narrowed side of the wine glass, and then glued together. If this is not done, they can simply fall off in their hands. Additionally, glasses are decorated with rhinestones and beads, which are glued to hot glue using a special gun.

The decor made of polymer clay looks exceptionally elegant. This is a fairly delicate work, but every beginner decorator can master this technique.To create a unique decoration, you will need polymer clay itself, as well as glue, work gloves, a toothpick and a board.

To begin with, a layer of clay is rolled and cut into small pieces, from which petals are subsequently formed. After that, the flower itself is harvested, and then it is baked until hardened. The prepared figures are attached to the glasses with glue.

Another original technique is gilding. It is quite simple in design - the picture is applied here with a special spray from a can, and you can decorate both the foot and the bowl. When it is necessary to decorate only one area, then the remaining part should be covered with paper. If you combine the paint-covered fragments with empty undyed, you can achieve an extraordinarily beautiful effect. It is quite popular to apply gilding using stencils - at first they are glued to the glass with plain water, and after gold dust has been applied to the surface, they are removed, the result is a rather interesting pattern.
