A wedding is a holiday that cannot do without special paraphernalia. It includes invitation cards, bonbonnieres, chests for money, pillows for rings and much more. An important detail of the celebration is glasses, from which the newlyweds will drink champagne after the registration of marriage. Future spouses can show imagination by designing wedding wine glasses with their own hands, and detailed master classes with photos will help them in this. The decor of the glasses will not only save a little money, but will also make the original dishes a real heirloom.

Decorating champagne glasses with rose petals

As a rule, wedding glasses are decorated in accordance with the style or theme of the celebration. For a beautiful romantic wedding, future spouses can make glasses decorated with rose petals. This plant symbolizes the love between the groom and the bride, and the shade of the selected flower will tell about the true feelings of the newlyweds. Choosing a red rose, the perpetrators of the wedding hint at the passionate nature of their relationship, white at the purity, innocence of marriage, pink petals speak of tenderness, respect, trust in each other.

Necessary materials

• Glasses (it is better to decorate three or four, if suddenly the main wine glasses break).
• Two high-quality artificial roses of the right color (with neat petals).
• Glue (instant for ceramics, silicone or superglue).
• Mother of Pearl Beads.
• Scissors.
• A4 paper.
• Thin brush.
• Pencil.
• Alcohol or acetone.
• Stained glass paints of suitable shades (one is light, the other is contrasting).

Stages

1. Thoroughly wipe the surface of the wedding product with alcohol or an acetone solution - this will remove fat from the glass that interferes with fixing the decor to the glass. Rinse with running water to remove any remaining cleaning agents. Take a dry soft rag, rub the surface of the glass so that you can creak.
2. Take an artificial rose flower, carefully disconnect the stem from the petals. Using scissors, separate the tiers one by one so as not to damage the surface of the plant. When all the petals are disconnected, round off the lower part with scissors so that there are no sloppy edges. Start gluing the smallest petals to the base of the wedding product, creating the core of the rose. Wait for the adhesive to dry..
3. Take the larger petals, glue them a little lower than the previous parts of the artificial plant. Petals of the next tier should completely cover all arising gaps.
4. Continue to decorate the wedding attribute, with each new layer attaching larger petals. When everything is ready, you will get a beautiful foundation for a future wedding product. Do the same with the second wine glass, carefully attaching the petals.
   
5. To make it clear who owns these beautiful wedding accessories, you need to make these products personalized. To do this, you need to paint the surface with paints with the names of the newlyweds, and also, if desired, the date of the wedding. There is a little trick that will help to make the inscription beautiful and even: type your names in one of the office programs with the font you like, then print the text on paper or write it carefully yourself.
6. Then slightly moisten the petal with water, put inside the wedding glass. Names should be in the place where the inscription will be made with paints. Make sure the paper fits snugly against the walls and does not slip..
7. Take a brush, dip it in the paint (do not take much so that it does not flow). Circle the names carefully. In order to make it clear where the wedding attribute of the groom is and where the bride is, make inscriptions in different colors - red for the bride, silver for the groom. If the saturation of the colors does not suit, you need to apply a second coat.
8. If you wish, you can use acrylic paints to further decorate the surface of the wedding product - with curls, hearts, stars, whatever your heart desires.
9. The final touch of decoration for wedding glasses with petals is mother of pearl beads. Cut them in half, gently apply glue, and then randomly decorate them with glass - it will look great! Champagne glasses with petals are ready!
