Another project inspired by a Pinterest pin.

Making wine glass charms has been on my mental must-do-someday list for a long time now, but I never got around to it – not even when I had my big jewellery-making temporary obsession last year. Then I saw these and realised if they were all different then they’d work both as coasters and identification devices.

I used felt rather than suede or leather so it would be easier to sew and two different edging stitches. They’re quick and easy, and would make great handmade gifts – perhaps using metallic thread. I considered stitching designs on them too, but figured that they’re likely to get red wine on them at some point. Stains won’t show on the black felt, but they might on the thread.
