Here is how to make these beautiful DIY Glitter Stem Wine Glasses
As you see from the pictures, you won’t need a lot. If you are a crafter or do work around the house, you may already have everything you need. If not, check out your dollar store first to get these things at the least expense to yourself. I get a lot of things from Amazon these days, as I have limited time to go shopping with all the work and kids’ activities that require us to travel long distances for events.

- Wine Glasses (I picked mine up at the dollar tree for $1 each!)
- Extra Fine Glitter (If you get regular glitter it will look a little sloppy!), you can buy it HERE
- Mod Podge (I also found a small bottle of this at the dollar tree, but you can also find it at most craft stores); you can buy it HERE
- Painters Tape, buy it HERE
- Small Paint Brush, you can buy it HERE
Step-by-Step Instructions for my DIY Glitter Steam Wine Glasses
Step 1: Pick out your colors! I decided to go with red and pink for the upcoming holiday. Make sure your glasses are clean and grease free.
Step 2: Using your painters tape tape your glass where the stem ends. This will prevent glitter where you don’t want it. You can buy this inexpensive tape for your craft projects HERE.
Step 3: Pour some of your mod podge on a plate. Using a small paint brush paint an even layer of mod podge on the base and stem of your wine glass.
Step 4: once you have covered your surface with mod podge, pour your glitter over the surface, shake loose any excess.
Step 5: Set your now glittered wine glasses somewhere safe to dry, and let dry over night.
TIP: You could also put a coat of mod podge over your glitter, which will seal it in, but it may not be as shine. However, you can get a GLOSS Mod Podge (you can buy it HERE) to capture that attractive glossy look. That’s a personal preference choice there!
Glitter Glasses Ideas
Here are a few craft ideas for the glitter glasses you can implement when you have a need for it.
Use Stencils for Glitter Shape
Using a stencil for a glitter glass project works great when you need to cover only part of the surface of the glass. You can easily take any existing stencils or make your own. Depending how complex a stencil may be, I usually use a sturdy card paper stock to cut out a shape like a heart or shamrock leaf, a star and so on.
If you have a letter-shape stencil you want to use, go for it! Check out HERE for some many stencils for your glitter wine glass craft for any occasion!
Bring Fun Craft Idea to Your Get-Togethers and Parties
This quick craft is a totally entertaining and simple idea for parties and your tea or book club gatherings. When you gather your group, friends, family members around the table to make some fun crafty things, a new conversation begin to flow. The connections we make with people are so much deeper when we are involved in doing something creative together.
That’s it! Just a few dollars and some of your time and you have some gorgeous DIY Glitter Stem Wine Glasses that are easy to make and look great!
What Colors Would You Use For Your DIY Glitter Stem Wine Glasses?
I like this easy craft. It will make old long stem wine glasses come to life. I want to make them too and use gold glitter!
Eileen,
Whatever your soul desires, use gold glitter and enjoy the old glasses in a new way.
This is such a fun project! Love that you can use it for any occasion!
Toni,
Yes, that’s the key – versatility!
These turned out so pretty! I would love to make a set or two with my kids as well.
Kita,
You can make pretty elaborate-looking glasses. Just allow a bit more time for creativity to express yourself.
These are so stinking cute and would make for a fun Valentine’s Day with the kids!
Emily,
The idea of glitter painting is so versatile. I can take any glass or ceramic and paint it with glitter for whatever occasion it is.
These would be fun to make at a craft night with my girlfriends.
Monica,
This is a perfect IDEA for an evening or brunch together!
I’ll put it into the post as well!
Thank you.
I love glitter so much, and this is adorable. I think my hubs would think I was crazy if I made them but he’d just shake his head and be happy that I was happy. I’ll have to grab some wine glasses and try this craft idea. Usually, I drink juice in wine glasses, just to be “fun”, so this is great!
Brandy,
Go with the FUN part all the way.
And I love the fact that you are a juice drinker out of the wine glass!
Feeling elegant and sophisticated from the early morning on!
These look great. This is such a wonderful idea. I need to make some of them myself. Very pretty.
Kathy,
I’ll let you into a secret: I made a few different glitter wine glasses and put them aside. I keep them handy for some fun events and even birthday gifts. I just put some fun gift inside the wine glass and put a fun packaging around it.
I do love easy diy projects that I can make in preparation for the holidays. My sister is an avid wine drinker, so this would make the perfect gift for her birthday.
Heidi,
You can go a bit even more elaborate with the glitter, like layering it or swirling it.
I love easy-peasy things that bring a fun element.
This is a craft that I want to make. I have the glitter so I just need to get the glue.
Tara,
Go after it! You can glitter do anything that you like, even coffee cups!
How cute, I love it!
This is such a cool idea! I’m definitely going to try it, I think it will also work well for birthdays. My favorite colors are orange and turquoise.
i love diy’s this looks awesome. i really wish i was better at making things like this.
This sounds like a great product! I would love to check these out.
I love this. I have a lot of glitter right now and I think I may do this tomorrow with an old plastic wine glass I have!
These are SO cute! Perfect for Valentine’s Day celebrations!
Those are so cute and look fun to make as well. I’m going to have to share this with my friend Vivian, she’s the glitter queen of all queens.
This is so glam and unique idea! I love everything that has glitters! It looks easy and fun to make.
What a cute craft for Valentine’s Day. This looks so easy to make. I would love to do this with my granddaughters.
These look so fun and easy to make. I have a few glasses I would love to transform. I will have to give ti a try this weekend.
That is so great! I have a birthday party coming up, and I think something like that would be the perfect, blinged out addition to it. Thanks!
