There are many ways to decorate wine glasses for a wedding.
Consider 22 design options for wedding wine glasses.
All of them are based on the fact that some decoration is glued to the glass.

How to glue lace, ribbons, flowers, beads, rhinestones, flower petals to glass?

• glue gun;
• silicone glue;
• PVA glue;
• special instant adhesive for crystal and ceramics;
• waterproof instant glue - super glue.

  It is most convenient to use super glue based on cyanoacrylate(cyanoacrylate glue, cyacrine).
  This glue is colorless, transparent and liquid like water. If this glue is thick, it means that it is starting to deteriorate.
  Cyanoacrylate glue is waterproof, but if the dishes glued with it are often washed with warm water, then after a year it will peel off.
  Avoid getting glue on your fingers - if the fingers stick together (the glue hardens very quickly and holds tightly), you will have to cut.
  After hardening, cyacrine remains transparent and colorless, but if you breathe on it, it will seize even faster from the exhaled moisture, but it will become white-cloudy.

  The main thing in gluing is accuracy so that the glue does not protrude around the decoration.

  To master the technique, try decorating an ordinary glass first.

Wedding glass decoration ideas

Ways to decorate wedding glasses Decorating wedding glasses with rhinestones Decorating wedding glasses with your own hands using rhinestones is a great decor option. You will need medium-sized rhinestones: they will make the glass sparkle with bright reflections, shimmer. From the outside it will look very impressive. If the bride's outfit also has rhinestones, wedding attributes will complement each other. Rhinestones can be taken in one color, the same size or different. You can decorate with multi-colored rhinestones. From them you can lay out a fantasy drawing, or specific figures (heart, dove, rings), or simply arrange a brilliant scattering on a glass. Decoration of wedding glasses with lace Laces give special tenderness and elegance to glasses. At the same time, you will not need any super-skills and expensive materials. Buy a beautiful openwork lace wrap a glass around them. Fix it all with glue. Lace can be assembled into a "skirt", which will make the glass even prettier. A satin or silk bow, which is also attached to the leg with glue, can complement the image. Lace should be quite lush and durable, it has to keep its shape and not “fall off”. You can take the same silk ribbon, wrap it in a spiral around the stem of the glass and secure it with an artificial rose at the top. A couple of small rhinestones on rose petals - and the glass is decorated. Decoration of wedding glasses with beads Take as a basis a small decorative flower. Glue it in the center of the glass with acrylic paints on the stem and leaves. Glue the halves of mother-of-pearl beads over the area of ​​​​the entire glass. It looks very gentle and elegant. Beads can be put in a row along the edge of the glass, you can put them in a heart in the middle or the first letters of your names. Decorating wedding glasses with flowers This is perhaps the most romantic way to decorate glasses. True, fresh flowers can decorate them for only one evening, and worries about their freshness and strength may not leave you ... but nevertheless it is very beautiful! It is more practical to buy delicate artificial flowers, fix them on the glass with glue and ribbons. A dark crimson rose on the groom's glass and a fuchsia rose on the bride's glass look great. For a romantic bride and groom who appreciate simplicity and naturalness, decor with daisies or forget-me-nots is suitable. Wildflowers on a glass are also suitable for young newlyweds. Engraving If you want to decorate glasses in this way, you will have to turn to specialists. But compose the inscriptions on the glasses yourself: they can contain declarations of love, oaths of allegiance and sweet words that you call each other. Glasses can also have family logos, paintings, portraits of young people. Complement this decor with a thin soft pink silk ribbon wrapped around the leg. Try to merge the engraving in one image with the same ribbons or beads. By itself, it will be visible only to you and nearby guests. Painting on wedding glasses Decorating glasses with paints is a commendable idea. As the main material you will need acrylic paints. The surface of the glass must be degreased with alcohol or acetone. Print the picture you like, transfer it to the glass. Next, the most important thing is to color the glass. Let the paint dry (12&minus 24 hours). You can fix the result with ordinary glass varnish. After that, you can proceed to additional decor: rhinestones, beads, ribbons, sequins. On the Internet you can find a lot interesting patterns, which will not be difficult to transfer to glass. Such glasses will real value your family. Decorating glasses with ribbons Remember that decorating wedding glasses with your own hands does not require serious expenses. You can make a bow out of satin or lace ribbon, fix it on the stem of the glass. Attach rhinestones or pearl beads to the bow with glue. You can make a rose from the ribbon and attach it to the glass. Ribbons can be the same colors, or they can differ. For example, the groom has a noble beige, the bride has a pale pink. But if the colors are different, then the material and width of the tape must be the same. Decorating glasses with mastic or polymer clay It is very easy to fashion flowers and leaves of the desired size from polymer clay. While the clay is still at the modeling stage, “try on” the flowers and leaves to the glass, control the process, correct the drawing. Once all the details are ready, they have to be baked. If the leaves are smaller than the flowers, bake them separately. How long to bake the clay, you will read from the instructions on the package. After baking, it is necessary to align the bases of flowers and leaves. A wide nail file is suitable for this. At the end of the work, the parts must be varnished. It remains only to fix the elements of polymer clay on the glass. Complete the pattern with the same rhinestones and beads. You can paint the stems with acrylic paint. Such work only seems painstaking, it will captivate you and, perhaps, you will find a new, interesting hobby.

New Year's Eve requires good organization, which to a certain extent is tied to the laying of the festive table. Serve vodka to men in frosted daffodils, ladies - champagne in glasses decorated with their own hands. On the New Year don't want to be wrong. After 12, the count goes to seconds.
We offer several ideas on how to quickly and easily decorate thin-walled vessels for drinking alcoholic beverages.

Champagne for the New Year is drunk from tall narrow bottles. In such dishes, the aroma of wine does not disappear, but is concentrated, and champagne retains its “sparkling” longer.

According to etiquette, sparkling wine and champagne are usually drunk from transparent glasses. Without drawings, gold notches and other decor that prevents you from admiring the orderly rows of bubbles rising from the very bottom of the glass. New Years is a pleasant exception. To your New Year's table you and your guests will remember for a long time, come up with a festive decor for a bottle of champagne and glasses.

In the meantime, while you're looking for the "fantasy" button, here are six simple ideas that everyone can interpret in their own way.

Step-by-step instructions and a master class will allow you to decorate wine or champagne glasses quickly and creatively.

Idea 1 - Decorating the stem of a champagne glass

You will need: a tall champagne glass, a napkin with a themed New Year's pattern, rhinestones, a decorative thread with a "rain", scissors, a pencil, a brush, PVA glue.

How to decorate glasses - a master class

Put the napkin on flat surface and put a glass on it. outline the contours with a simple pencil, "thrown" 5-7mm around the circumference.

Cut out two pieces of the same size. Circle patterns may vary. Push off New Year's drawing specifically your napkin.

With a brush, cover the surface of the base of the stem of the glass with an adhesive solution (PVA school glue, diluted in warm water in a ratio of 2: 1). Place the glass in the center of the circle and press down.

Treat the protruding edges of the napkin with glue, fold and gently press against the glass.

On the second circle, make a cut - from the center to one of the edges. Coat the top of the leg with glue solution and “put” the second circle on it.

Coat the edges of the paper with glue and fold to the underside of the leg.

After securing both parts in place, apply a layer of adhesive solution to the napkin for a secure fit.

Glue the rhinestones according to the drawing with glue not diluted in water. Rhinestones are more convenient to take with tweezers.

Decorate the leg post with decorative thread or ribbon.

Advice. In order for the rhinestones to stick well and not fall off during toasts to the chimes, it is more reliable to use not PVA, but glue with a stronger grip.

Idea 2 - Decor of glasses for the New Year with sparkles

You will need: a jar of loose micro-sequins (glitter), a sponge and decoupage glue.

How to decorate a glass?

Wipe the glass thoroughly with a cotton ball soaked in medical alcohol. There should be no smudges from water and fingerprints on the glass walls.

To prevent possible shedding of sparkles, apply a thin layer of glue to the base of the glass and the stem. Let it dry. Glitter will stick to such a primer better than to smooth glass.

Cover the stem of the glass with another even layer. Put the glue thickly, but so that it does not drain or drip. (When painting the base of the wine glass, do not apply glue to the back that is in contact with the table. The glass will become unstable.)

Do not wait for the second layer of glue to dry - immediately generously roll (sprinkle) the leg with sparkles.

Do not shake or blow on freshly applied glitter. Let them dry. After complete drying, apply another thin layer of glue on top.

Advice. The quality of work will not suffer if the blending glue is replaced with a less expensive and more familiar material - PVA.

Idea 3 - Decoupage glasses for the New Year with glass shavings

You will need:

Champagne glasses, a sketch with a thoughtful pattern, a tube of a stained glass metallic color, a voluminous gel paste with glass chips, a small brush with a fine tip.

How to make a decoupage wine glass?

Wash the glass, and then degrease the surface with acetone.

Draw the outlines of the petals with a stained glass outline. This is not difficult. Everything will turn out even if you do not have drawing skills.

The main thing is not to rush. But if you make a mistake, erase a fresh fragment of the pattern with a cotton swab or, after drying, gently scrape off the outline with a knife.

When the contour is completely dry (after about 6 hours), proceed to apply a transparent gel to the petals.

The inside of the pattern does not need to be filled. The flower inside should remain transparent.

We work out small details with a contour for stained-glass windows.

We draw small drops on the base of the glass.

And put a few more drops next to each crystal flower.

Advice. Instead of flowers on a glass with glass droplets, you can create more traditional patterns for the New Year - snowflakes or frosty frost.

Idea 4 - Master class: Decorating glasses with beads with your own hands

You will need: Christmas decorations(small round beads on a fishing line), thermal gun.

How to decorate a glass with beads?

Start gluing the beads with a hot glue gun from the base of the glass, moving up the bowl.

The glue of the gun is very viscous and hot. Try to squeeze as little glue onto the glass as possible. The mass solidifies quickly. The beads are glued according to the principle: one pull of the trigger - press three beads onto the glue. Etc.

Advice. Do not glue the convex rim at the top of the glass with Christmas tree beads - it will not be convenient to drink New Year's champagne.

Idea 5 - Decorating glasses with rhinestones (drawing "Snowflake")

You will need:

Sketch drawing, toothpicks, textile glue for rhinestones, tweezers or Q-tip.

How to do?

A glass (a glass for red wine is decorated in the photo of the master class, but the idea itself is also applicable for decorating flute-shaped glasses) is washed and degreased.

Then we take a sketch drawn with a simple pencil and put it inside the glass. It will serve as a stencil outline. It is not advisable to fix the drawing with adhesive tape - traces will remain.

The snowflake is clearly visible through the transparent glass. Lubricate one of the faces with glue and begin to lay out the rhinestones with a wet cotton swab (this is better for adhesion).

Lubricate and glue. If the rhinestones move off the glue before drying, fix them with a toothpick.

Advice. To make your glass shine in new year's eve Sprinkle the snowflake, before the glue dries, with small silver sparkles.

Idea 6 - Snowman glass made of artificial snow and polymer clay

You will need:

Tulip-shaped champagne glasses (pictured are wine glasses), a jar of artificial snow, glue (not PVA), black and orange color, pieces of fabric for a scarf, thick brush.

How to decorate glasses with your own hands?

Clean the glass of stains and, for a good grip, degrease with alcohol. On dry, clean glass, apply a thin layer of a mixture that imitates white snow. Try to create irregularities with a brush that are characteristic of natural snow cover.

Don't wait for the fake snow to dry - sprinkle the mix with white snow glitter. Shake off the excess, and after the snow is completely dry, brush off the remaining sparkles with a brush and start sculpting carrots, eyes and embers from polymer clay for a radiant smile.

After the details of the snowman's face stay in the oven (the drying time is indicated by the manufacturer on the package) and cool down, you can proceed to the design: gluing them onto the glass. When the glue is completely dry, decorate the leg with a stylish scarf.

Advice.
To prevent the decorative scarf from sliding down the leg during the New Year's feast, fix it on the glass with a drop of glue.

Concerning New Year's serving and serving champagne festive table, then for a bucket you will need a freezer, a mold and a mountain ash.

If you want to paint glasses for yourself or as a gift, for a wedding or a theme party, you can be sure you will receive great pleasure from creativity - because it is done easily, quickly and not expensively.

Before proceeding to step by step master class for painting glasses with your own hands, you need to decide on the future design of your wine glasses, so we suggest you get inspired and draw original ideas for “glass” decor in the next chapter.

The painting of glasses and wine glasses can be different in terms of drawing technique, in terms of complexity, use of materials and, of course, in terms of subject matter.

Master class number 1: Glasses in the style of confetti

Glasses decorated with small peas look very festive and can be as elegant as in the photo below, or cheerful multi-colored. Circles are associated with champagne bubbles or bright confetti.

Difficulty level: very simple.

What you need: acrylic or contour paints on glass and ceramics, also suitable regular varnish for nails (but acrylic paints are much more stable) or a special marker for painting dishes. To degrease wine glasses, prepare nail polish remover, degreaser or alcohol, for drawing - cotton buds, a pencil with an eraser on the end or a small hard synthetic brush, and for correcting the picture - cotton pads and sticks.

Painting technique:

1. Thoroughly wash and degrease the glass with alcohol or other means using cotton pads or napkins.
2. Now you can start drawing circles. Squeeze some paint into a small container or just onto foil (paper, file).

Turn the glass over and start dotting from top to bottom, keeping the same interval between them. You can draw dots as in this master class, that is, starting from large to small, gradually increasing the distance between them. Otherwise, the dots can be the same size, different in color, and they can also form a pattern or pattern (point to point or peak technique), as well as slightly overlap each other.

Advice:

• It is convenient to put large dots with a pencil eraser, and small dots with a brush or a cotton swab with a pointed end as in the photo below (scroll).

• It is better to maintain a distance of about 2 cm from the edge of the glass to the picture, especially if the paint is toxic.
• If you draw with contours, then first you need to practice on paper to put small, medium and large dots at the same distance from each other and with the same degree of pressure on the tube.

1. Now you need to let the paint dry. Drying methods largely depend on the paint, usually the manufacturer indicates the drying time and firing instructions.

• As a rule, painting with acrylic paints or outlines requires firing if you want to use the glasses often and wash them in the dishwasher. To do this, put the glasses in the oven at a temperature of 150-170 degrees for 30 minutes, and then turn off the oven, and without removing the glasses from it, let them cool naturally;
• Markers dry in 24 hours and do not need to be fired;

• Nail polish dries quickly, but the design will not last long, so for decorating gift or wedding glasses that you want to keep as a keepsake, this option is not suitable. But for holding theme parties better paint can not found.

And here are other ideas for painting glasses with multi-colored polka dots that will decorate any fun party(swipe photo to the right).

Polka dots of gold, silver, white flowers more suitable for decorating wedding glasses.

By the way, circles can be not only drawn, but also glued. You can buy self-adhesive vinyl paper of the desired color and cut circles out of it using a hole punch or special scissors, and then carefully stick them onto the glass. The photo below shows glasses decorated in this way.

Master class number 2: Artistic painting of glasses

In this master class, we will turn glasses into flowers, because its stem looks so much like a stem, and the bowl looks like a bud.

Difficulty level: average.

What you need: any degreaser, cotton pads and cotton swabs for degreasing and pattern correction. And for drawing, prepare artistic synthetic brushes different sizes, plastic plate or a palette for mixing paints, as well as acrylic paints for glass and ceramics. If you wish, you can supplement the drawing with contour and stained glass paints, markers and glitter.

Drawing technique:

1. Degrease the surface;
2. We mix paints on a plate or palette, achieving the desired shades. In order to make the color pastel and delicate, colored paint is mixed with white;
3. Now we need to draw the stamens: we put dots with a narrow small brush or a cotton swab with a pointed end. The color of the pollen can be black, yellow or orange. In our master class, we use yellow for drawing the stamens of a lilac Italian aster and black for sunflowers.

Further, the drawing of the flower will be layered, so you need to wait until the drawn stamens dry. You can dry them naturally by leaving them for 2 hours, or bake them in the oven at 150-170 degrees for 15 minutes.

1. Once the painted pollen dries, you need to draw the petals as shown in the photo below. If desired, draw the details - veins and color nuances. Then you need to let the paint dry (see point 3).

1. The last step - draw a pedicel and a stalk in green and again we bake our glass flower, but now for 30 minutes - and then the paint from the glass will not “peel off” for a very long time.

Well, that's all, the decor of wedding, gift or holiday glasses is finished.

See the photo below for more interesting ideas murals with floral and plant motifs (scroll).

And here are examples of painting on glass with peacock feathers.

The theme of flora and fauna is also very popular.

Glasses for festive serving theme parties can be decorated brightly and funny.

Glasses as a gift or for a wedding can be additionally decorated with rhinestones, feathers, pearls, sparkles, ribbons and other decor.

Other methods and secrets of painting on glass: how to dry a glass with a stained stem and use a stencil or sketch

• If you want to completely paint over the base of the glass, that is, paint over its bottom from below, then you need to dry it in a suspended state or by carefully placing it on a home-made paper structure and four buttons as in the photo below.

• Painting on glass is easier to do using a sketch-substrate, drawn by yourself or printed in the right size on a printer. You can also use the pattern on the napkin. The paper with the image must be laid on the bottom of the wine glass, aligned and glued with adhesive tape as shown in the photo.

Stencils will also help in painting on glass with your own hands. For this you need:

1. Draw them yourself or print a picture from the Internet, and then cut it out with a clerical knife;

1. Buy ready-made stencils in a craft store, which are very easy to stick and peel off;

1. You can draw stripes, geometric abstractions and simple stencil drawings using ordinary or masking tape;

1. You can get the effect of an openwork pattern if you use lace as a stencil.

Tip: you can apply inscriptions or images through a stencil with a special matting paint on glass with the effect of hoarfrost or frost, which is sold in art or online stores. An example of such a decor is in the photo below.

In the old days, before the wedding, the bride was always tested: can she sew and embroider, keep the house in order. Now the requirements for brides have become much softer, but what kind of girl refuses to boast of her skills!

And one of the most successful ways to demonstrate good taste, and at the same time ingenuity, patience and perseverance, is to decorate wedding glasses with your own hands, turning them into real works of art.

Usually such things are carefully stored for many years and taken out of the treasured box to anniversary marriages.

Training

Since glasses are still supposed to be decorated by hand, you can buy the simplest glass wine glasses. Moreover, they do not even have to be of the same shape: for example, for the groom you can buy a thin, strict wine glass, and for the bride - a wider, squat, imitating a female figure.

It is advisable to purchase at least six pieces: glassware tends to crash at the most inopportune moment.

For the same reason, it’s better to decorate not two glasses, but at least four, or even all six: two are designed for the young to drink a sip of champagne at registration, two more will be waiting for the newlyweds in the restaurant, and the last two will serve as spare and can be used for photo shoot.

You can literally decorate wedding glasses with anything: beads, beads, rhinestones, faux pearls, lace, ribbons, artificial flowers, feathers.
And if you decide also, then the glasses will need to be decorated in the appropriate style and color.

The most important thing is to thoroughly degrease the glass before working with alcohol or acetone, then wash it and rub it to a shine with a soft cloth.

How to decorate wedding glasses with lace?

The easiest way to decorate glasses is to carefully cover them with lace.

The style of the glass will depend on what kind of lace you choose. White lace or lace with silver lurex thread look elegant and solemn.

For the wedding in the style of Tiffany turquoise lace is perfect.

If a wedding is planned in shabby chic or bohemian style, then colored ones will be quite appropriate: scarlet, purple, blue lace or lace with golden lurex.

Well, for the wedding Rustic style it is better to choose embossed lace in beige or cream colors.

You can stick lace with:

• glue gun;
• PVA glue;
• silicone glue;
• instant adhesive for ceramics and crystal;
• super-glue (high-resistant instant glue.

Lace can be glued around the glass, retreating a centimeter from the edge.

You just need to remember that instant adhesives contain substances that are not safe to breathe for a long time. Therefore, it is better to work in a ventilated area.

The lace "skirt" worn on the leg of a high wine glass looks beautiful. The combination of a lace "belt" on the glass itself and a lush, gathered lace frill on the base will also be very effective.


If embossed lace of the Vologda type is used for decoration, then individual elements (flowers) can be cut out and glued on to the glass of the glass.

Lace is usually sheathed with beads or pearls. The leg of the glass can also be decorated with lace or satin braid.

For a richer design, you can combine lace with rhinestones.

Painting with paints

For painting glasses are used acrylic paints. In order for the drawing not to be erased or washed off, after application it should be carefully covered with a special varnish, which is sold in needlework stores.

You can paste over the edge of the glass with construction tape so that the edge of the tape protrudes slightly above the glass edge: this is done so that, when picking up a vessel, you do not smear the paint that has not yet dried. Then the entire remaining free part of the glass is covered with a continuous layer of paint (usually gold or silver) using a sponge.
You can also use gold paint for drawing contours of drawings or ornaments.

Looks very elegant on wedding glasses monogram young or other drawings (pigeons, hearts).

To depict something truly spectacular on thin glass, it is not at all necessary to have the talent of Raphael: just print the image you like on a printer, then glue it on the inside of the glass and circle it on the outside.

Decorating with artificial flowers

Artificial flowers can be glued to the surface of the glass or to its leg.

The composition looks beautiful when the stem of the wine glass is one continuous flower, above which the reservoir rises. To create such beauty, it is enough to disassemble a large artificial flower (rose or peony) into petals, and then, row by row, paste over the stem with them, starting from the top.

Each subsequent row of petals must be glued just below the previous one. The remaining free leg of the glass should be draped with green silk or guipure.

For greater showiness between the petals, you can glue a few feathers of the same color as the petals.

Decoration with ribbons

There are many options for decorating wine glasses with ribbons - from very simple bows to complex compositions and draperies.

Satin, silk or gauze ribbons tied in the form of a bow on the stem of a glass look very elegant.

Artificial flowers can be made from specially folded satin ribbons. Such flowers are usually glued to the surface of the glass: small, from narrow ribbons - closer to the edge, large, from wide ribbons - at the base.

Petals of artificial flowers from ribbons are embroidered with beads or pearls. Instead of stems, narrow green ribbons or threads are glued.

Decoration of wedding glasses with rhinestones

Rhinestones glued to them will give sparkle and solemnity to the glasses. Rhinestones will look especially impressive, having the same shape as the pebbles with which the bride's dress is embroidered.

Rhinestones can be glued to the surface of the glass in a checkerboard pattern: closer to the edge - less often, near the stem - thicker. Rhinestones glued to the petals of artificial flowers imitate dew drops.

A wedding celebration is inextricably linked with traditions and certain rituals. Since ancient times, to show the strength of marriage ties, the glasses of newlyweds were tied with a ribbon. Wedding glasses accompany the newlyweds throughout the holiday, are kept as a family heirloom in a conspicuous place, are present in photographs and videos. You can focus on such a symbolic detail by creating original decoration wedding goblets.

You can turn standard wine glasses into an unusual masterpiece with the help of a specialist or with your own hands. There is a wide variety of styles and options for jewelry of varying complexity. Some methods require only perseverance, while other methods involve creativity. Having decided to decorate the wedding with wine glasses for the newlyweds own production should take the time to practice. Having practiced on ordinary wine glasses, there is no doubt about the success of the final creation.

It is not necessary to acquire the same attributes to create a well-coordinated duet. For the bride, you can choose a feminine model with an elegant thin leg and mouth-watering rounded shapes. The groom's glass can be more subtle and discreet. An important point is a harmonious combination of wine glasses between themselves and the prevailing atmosphere.
