Without what is a wedding impossible? It is clear that without the bride and groom. And what is necessary from the traditional attributes? Of course, wedding glasses! The decoration on them can be so delightful that they can be likened to a real work of art.

The tradition of decorating glasses for a wedding first appeared in the West. It was there that they came up with such an original addition to the wedding entourage. Later, “hand made” glasses appeared in our country. Now the original dishes for the wedding can be ordered both from private craftsmen or at the factory, or you can make it yourself. Wedding glasses, which are decorated by yourself, are a wonderful reminder of the grand ceremony.

How and how can you decorate the dishes? There are many materials at hand. For example, paints, ribbons, flowers, glitter, paper. All you need is imagination and patience. Creating beautiful and original jewelry requires perseverance, attention and skillful hands. Decorating wedding glasses with flowers can have several options.

• Real flowers.
• Artificialflowers.
• Painted flowers.

The latter requires certain skills in drawing and a good example in front of your eyes. In addition, special paints are required. Acrylic fit perfectly. Brushes will also need special ones - very thin and soft. Acrylic paints do not need to be diluted with water, otherwise they will be difficult to apply to a smooth glass. It is best to use the thick paint directly from the tube. First, the flower itself is drawn, then small elements and edging. Wedding glasses decorated with paint require a protective layer for the design. It can be either a glossy varnish or a simple hairspray, which is in every home. A prerequisite is that the protective coating is applied only after all the paint has dried.

Decoration of wedding glasses and bottles can be made in the same style, or it can be radically different. So, glasses for the bride and groom can be different from everyone else at the celebration. Bottle necks can be decorated with napkin ties. Colored or white, your choice. The napkin is unfolded, then twisted from any corner to the opposite (diagonally) in a narrow strip. This strip is tied with a tie around the neck of the bottle. This is the simplest and most common option. In addition, you can tie a neat and beautiful bow from a bright or delicate ribbon. So you can decorate the glasses of the newlyweds for champagne.

Wedding glasses can not be paintednot only flowers, but also other elements. Hearts, ribbons, stripes, dots, inscriptions with wishes, names of the newlyweds. In addition, if the wedding is themed, then the decoration can be on the theme of the celebration. There are no special rules. Stores usually offer a couple of glasses for newlyweds. Blue is for the groom, pink is for the bride. Such wedding glasses, the decoration of which is made in industrial production, are not always refined and sophisticated. But the work of artisanal craftsmen most often causes genuine delight. Which one to choose is a matter of taste. You can experiment and decorate the glasses yourself. Perhaps they are the ones that will appeal to you the most.
