Creating Unique & Personalized Wedding Gifts Thru Etched Glass: Part One
April showers bring May flowers and wedding season! If you're an average twenty-to-thirty-something woman and not a hermit hiding in a mountain cave, then chances are that you know someone getting married this year. The odds are in your favor.
Searching registries for the best gift becomes second nature, but after a while, all the matching towel sets and Pyrex blur together and I become bored with my own gift. Which is a sad predicament, indeed, because I want to give something that screams my enthusiasm for their important day, rather than yawning like a pair of Christmas gift underwear.
So I'm often torn between my desire to give the bride and groom something practical that they need, but also to
give them something memorable, so they can laugh at our inside jokes and know
that we cared to add a special touch just for them.
Lately, my solution to this dilemma has been custom etched glass gifts. I was introduced to this craft on
Make It & Love It. By adding a creative element to a practical
gift, no piece of glass is safe! Any bottle, vase, or Pyrex can become classy or hilarious in
less than half an hour.
