Skirted Wine Stems!

 
Aaaa-ooooooooooh!!

Can you tell that I am excited about Halloween?!
 

It kicks off the Holiday Season for me and I just love it - especially with Sheep and Snacks around to enjoy it with!  But every now and then, mama needs to howl at the moon {grin}, so I invited some friends over for a Girl's Night Out, complete with food, WINE and shopping - so fun!!


Imagine that - a "31 Party" with a Halloween theme  - am I clever, or what?!

So in addition to a few frightful foods, I decided to spruce up my wine glasses for the occasion as well.  I saw these clever Pumpkin Wine Stem Labels by Shannon at SMC by Design and for some reason it got me thinking about how I might do these more easily by simply using an orange cupcake liner for the base instead of card stock.


I couldn't find any orange liners while I was out and didn't have all day to shop, but I did come across these liners with a spider web design.  Anyhoo, one thing led to another, and before I knew it, I had these cute little numbers instead!


Aren't they adorable!!
 

And the best part is that you could literally do this easily and inexpensively for almost any occasion!

I snagged these wine glasses at Wal-Mart BTW, in a boxed set (easy storage) that came out to only $1 per glass!  Perfect for party at the house with wall-to-wall tile (mine) and a bunch of moms getting silly!  They're not as nice as my 'good' wine stems, but there won't be any tears shed if something happens to them either.  Just sayin'!



I had already purchased the spider rings for some other fun Halloween projects and had plenty more than I needed, so a simple snip was all it took to add these babies to the glasses for some more spooky fun!


I decided they would also make great holders for name tags too.  All that took was some card stock, a hole punch and a Sharpie to add the names!  Easy, and important when all your stems start to look the same!


Some kept their tags on the rim, which worked great!


I moved mine down to the stem.


I just love how simple and cute these came out!




Cheers  . . . and Happy Halloween Y'all!

    SOOO creative and cute! This avoids others sharing their "germs" when someone (ME!) picks up the wrong glass!! ;-) (I think I drank an entire bottle of listerine after that! YES... COMPLETE GERM-A-PHOB!)

    Awesome idea! I think I can also apply this in Christmas. But I wonder what kind of design I would choose. Anyway, thank you for this wonderful idea.
