Crafts: Redneck Wine Glasses, Personalized

Please join my list of Linky friends and google friends when you visit my blog!  Thanks!
I saw Redneck wine glasses in a Hallmark store and thought what a clever idea.  However, they did not have handles.  I googled the company and found that they also offer Redneck wine glasses with handles and they are considerably less expensive online, even with shipping.  
These glasses came with a pewter lid but I thought I would switch those out for regular mason jar lids which I could spray paint with chalkboard paint.
First I roughed up the surface with fine grit sandpaper.
Then I simply spray painted the inside lid of the caps.
Now each cap can be labeled with the guest's name.
And they look great displayed in our wine cabinet!

 These Redneck glasses can not go into the dishwasher.  However, check out this blog, Blooming With Burlap, where Jennifer came up with a way to make her own Redneck glasses and hers are dishwasher safe.  Cheers!

    Great idea with the name tags! Your wine case is lovely!!

    I like the 'fun' wine glasses. Some wine drinkers take it all so seriously. My husband sometimes drinks HIS wine from a beer mug and we have been known to use red Solo cups!! Fun like a PARTY!!

    I made each of my kids a set for Christmas last year using Mason jars from my mom and candlesticks from yard sales.

    These are cute! I've made some similar to this but mine didn't have the handle or the chalk board top. I'll have to keep that chalk board top in mind next time. It's really neat! Now following. Love from Whimsically Homemade.

    I love that you modified them to have the chalkboard tops ... you could really have fun with what you write on the lid!

    Hiya, I found your blog on 'blog hops everday' and I am now following you.

    But more to the point, your blog made me sigh up to Linky. Not sure how it works yet, but willing to explore.

    I love your redneck wine glasses - bloody brilliant!

    Hope you can stop by my place too!
