Hi Everyone – a really quick party idea to share today using one of my favorite products this year – Vintage Vogue Spool Buttons from Pink Paislee.
If your parties are anything like mine – you need to keep a pretty close eye on your wine glass throughout the evening!
These are a great way to give your guests a good chance at remembering which glass belongs to them!
To make these I used a plain wire ring (sold as wine glass charm rings or plain earring bases) and threaded on some beads for decoration. I used the stone chips as the first bead to stop the others falling through the center hole. Using pliers, you then bend the plain end of the wire 90 degrees to make a right-angle end to fit through the loop.
Please leave a comment if you have any questions.

Oh those buttons are ridiculously adorable. I want one of each! What a great use for them too. 🙂 I can only imagine you'll have to keep an eye on your wine glass markers now too since everyone will be jealous of them. Also, you have great photography here!

How cute! These are really beautiful. I would love it if you would stop by and share at my Monday link party. I am trying to expand it with high quality projects like this one.

I love these. Very whimsical.
Neat idea- but can you buy those buttons if you aren't a retailer? Seems like they only sell to wholesale sellers.
Hi there. Most manufacturers do not sell direct to the public – but you should be able to ask your local scrapbook shop to order them or you can buy online here – http://www.etsy.com/listing/81242820/vintage-vogue-spool-buttons-pink-paislee
Or search for "Vintage Vogue Spool Buttons" online
