DIY Project #2: Wine Glass Charms

After more than almost 2 months of inactivity...

Here is another DIY project that Yeng and I are making in preparation for our wedding: Wine glass charms!

They're really easy to make, all we needed were beads (we used assorted orange, blue and white glass beads, and alphabet beads), memory wire, and super glue. For tools, a wire cutter was needed to cut the memory wire.

We wouldn't think of doing this for 200 guests, but having only 60 guests made it manageable.

Hopefully, these personalized charms can take the place of the usual escort cards for guests to locate their seats (if they are readable enough) and they can double as souvenirs as well. But more than just being ornamental, we hope that they're functional as well. How many times have you asked the person seating beside you to check which of the drinks in between the two of you belonged to you and which one was his? If you're as absent minded as me, then the answer is EVERYTIME.

Hi Dale and Yeng, we have the same venue for our 2012 wedding. We already reserved a date for the church however our contact for san Juan nepomuceno has not been replying and we do not have the church's landline. Would you have the number of the church or a contact person?

Thank you so much!
Izza

Hi Izza, her name is Ponie and we got her number from Acuatico. Yeah she's a little bit difficult to reach, best is to really meet up with her at the church.
