Confetti Champagne Glasses
These Confetti Champagne Glasses, created by Amanda Formaro, are made by using a wide variety of enamel paints. When you begin this New Year's craft be sure to thoroughly wash and dry each one of the champagne flutes you intend to transform. It is important to flip your glasses upside down before you begin decorating them with paint, it is this maneuver that creates the crystal drips. All that is left to do is to wait for the paint to cure, and you'll have wonderfully festive champagne flutes for your next New Year's Eve party.
