Pink Your Drink {Cocktail Glasses}
categories: bridal shower ideas, decorating ideas, think pink
If you’re hosting a Pink Party in October (or any time of year), chances are good that you’ll be serving up some pink drinks, so here are a few ideas for adding an extra splash of your signature color to the outside of your drink!
Adorning stemware & glasses with fun details like ribbon & rhinestones only takes a few extra minutes, but it really elevates signature drinks to the next level and adds such a fun element to the party.
The DIY Details:
• Decorate cocktail glasses with festive embellishments like pink marabou boa, pink ribbon, and sparkly, hot pink pipe cleaners. Collins glasses also look great with a band of fabric ribbon around the base and a pretty pink straw.
• Adhesive-backed craft rhinestones are great for adding a small dose of sparkle, or you can also use a more intricate rhinestone motif to make the guest of honor’s glass extra-special!
Ready-made stickers like the flower rhinestone pictured here are available at most craft and scrapbooking stores, and they have a clear backing that enables you to peel-and-stick them in one easy motion.
• Pink chipboard letters are another quick & easy way to dress up stemware, and they come with the added bonus of doubling as a drink marker so that guests can keep track of their glass. Use a small jump ring or piece of wire to attach the letter to the stem. These letters look extra-fun when paired with pink marabou boa!
Stay tuned for Pink Your Drink Part 2… what to put INSIDE the glass!

Question? Think this would be easy to do on plastic champagne and wine glasses. Just a thought for the lower budget events where glass drinkware is not available.

I hosted a spa party and made signature martini glasses with hot pink boa’s. It really added a nice touch to our signature spa cocktails and all glasses were personalized with a little letter bling. I made them party favors and you got to take them home!
