Wine Glass Charms Hedgehog Wine Glass Charm  
I found my first set of wine glass charms about two years ago. They were a set of 4 pewter shoes and I thought they were just the neatest things. I showed them to everyone I knew
and explained what they were.

Shortly thereafter, I ran across some little gemstone carved animals at a rock and gem show. I thought that they would make a great and different wine glass charm. First, because they were not pewter like all of the other ones I had seen and secondly, because I am crazy about rocks and gems.

I found all of the components I needed and made a few sets of my own, then showed them to family and friends, from whom I received positive feedback. After that, I just kept making them. I wasn't quite certain what to do with all the wine glass charms.... I just loved making them and continued to do so.

Next I found little glass leaves and made more charms with them. Now I had all the gifts I was going to need for the next couple of years or so.....
I heard about a Wine and Blues Festival that was going on in Dunedin, FL and I entered the show. By then I was really hooked. Everyone seemed to love the charms I was making, but most importantly... they were buying them. That first show also made me realize that I needed to sell the charms individually (as well as in sets), so I broke up all of my sets within the first 10 minutes of the show. Now people could create and personalize their own sets. 

Now I look at literally everything... and wonder.... if I put a hole in it, would it work as a charm? (Some things don't, like the acorn I tried.) People are always asking me where I find my charms. Since that is a big part of what makes mine unique, I don't reveal where I get them. Believe me, it is a constant and time consuming search!

To me, the most important thing of all though... is that you will enjoy these wine glass charms, as much as I have enjoyed making them! I would like to Thank You for visiting my website and invite you to stop by and visit us at the Craft Shows and Festivals we attend!
