Etched wine glasses

One of my girlfriends is getting married soon!  We all know what that mean, bachlorette parties and bridal showers.  A few us girls are headed to Nashville. TN to enjoy the sites and the sounds of the music city.  Or couartcrafts,default,sc.rse as soon as the weekend was planned I threw myself into full planning mode.

The future bride and I had similar thoughts about making personalized goodies for the girls that are helping to celebrate the up coming nuptials.  The bride wanted to create some etched wine glasses for each of the women in attendance.  The etched wine glasses turned out fabulous. Go grab your bottle of wine, your going to want to fill that puppy up as soon as your done.

Let's begin!

First you will need your wine glass(or glass item you want to etch).  Any item that is round or has a curve is a tad bit harder to etch then a flat surface.


For this project I cut the stencil sticker out using my cricut.  Picking the design I think is the hardest part.  I have so many programed images/fonts its hard to decide how I want the final outcome to look.  If you don't have a cricut, you can certainly use your silhouette machine if you have one, or buy Martha Stewart sticker stencils.  You can find them at Michaels craft stores.

Welcome to my first post!

Hi, I'm Andrea and I currently call Huntsville, Alabama my home. Originally I grew up in central Pennsylvania.  I have been living down south for seven years and during that time I meet my husband, Casey.  We were married in May of 2013 and bought a house in the same year.

This blog is dedicated to all things that fancy me.  I am a DIY and a totally crafty person in my spare time.  I also enjoy cooking and baking to which my husband is very grateful for my skills.  While I do most of the cooking in our household, Casey does has some secret skills, He knows BBQ.  You can find him on spring and fall weekends smoking all sorts of goodies on his Weber smoker.  It was a 30th birthday present from me and his close friends. 

So lets just jump in and welcome to my DIY 70's home!  Come on in and grab a glass of sweet tea, its going to be a good time.
