New Year, New Glassware: 23 DIY Ways to Update Your Glassware
Well the holidays are officially over … whah whah :( But it was certainly fun while it lasted … wasn’t it?! We showed you how to pop off the New Year with confetti poppers, knot your way into a new hair style, and hand letter your own cocktail napkins. It’s now time to look to the new year and new fabulous ideas! And there’s no surprise here, we’ve got one for you today. Here are 23 DIY ways to update your glassware. A new year requires some new glassware, don’t you think?!
1. Hand-Painted Black and White Mug Eventhough the holidays are over, it’s still cold outside (well in most places). This mug is “oh-so-chic” for those cold winter mornings! (via Wit and Whistle)
2. Gold Embellished Flutes These gold embellished flutes are fabulous for celebrations! We can’t decide if the “cheers” or the dotted flutes are our fave! (via Kristi Murphy)
3. DIY Metallic Print Glassware This is a buy or DIY. Blogger, Sarah, was inspired by the metallic print glassware at West Elm and decided to make her own on the cheap. You won’t believe how identical these look to the West Elm version. Take a look at her post. (via Sarah Hearts)
4. Old Sock Coffee Cup Cozy Why should cozies be reserved for beer only? That’s the theory of blogger, Jessie, and we are so not complaining! We love this idea for updating your glassware. The best part? It’s not permanent. You can switch these things up anytime you want! (via Lilyshop)
5. Glitter Dipped Coffee Mug Believe it or not, this glitter dipped coffee mug is dishwasher safe. This is good because we are definitely not fans of hand-washing dishes around here. As you can guess, we can pile them up! (via White House Black Shutters)
6. Personalized Glassware We love that these are adorable for adults and little ones alike. And guess what? These glasses are thrift store finds! We love when a project is easy on the wallet! (via Better Homes and Gardens)
7. State Silhouette Coffe Mug What is your state? This CA mug obviously works for us over here at Brit + Co., but you can doll up any white mug with your state by following the provided instructions! (via Artzy Creations)
