Fun DIY Glass Charms

We don’t need to leave home to enjoy an unforgettable evening. Some of our happiest moments happen right here, within these walls, when we’re spending time together, sharing smiles and laughter. During the holidays especially, my family, including my children, is exactly who I want beside me. Of course, a memorable celebration also calls for a delicious beverage. Plain water simply isn’t enough. Take it up a notch with our delightful DIY Glass Charms!

Naturally, when children are part of the celebration, the beverages need to be kid-friendly. DASANI Sparkling Water makes an excellent base for all kinds of festive drinks, including alcohol-free options. Found at Walmart, DASANI Sparkling Water adds sparkle to the season with 12-pack cans available in Lime, Berry, Lemon, and Black Cherry flavors. With zero calories, no artificial colors, and no caffeine or artificial sweeteners, you can enjoy each bubbly sip with confidence.

For our entertaining family evening, I chose a pack of DASANI Sparkling Water in Berry flavor. I also grabbed a package of mint leaves, along with fresh blueberries and a lemon.

I placed some of the blueberries in the freezer to use as a garnish and to add extra taste. The remaining berries were set aside to muddle into our Blueberry Spritzers!

Using our drink mixer, I muddled ¼ cup of blueberries together with approximately 6 mint leaves. Next, I poured in the juice of half a lemon, 12 ounces of DASANI Sparkling Water Berry flavor, and 1 ½ tbsp of simple syrup. Combine everything, strain it thoroughly, and pour the Blueberry Spritzers into champagne glasses. Finish each drink with a few frozen blueberries and one more mint leaf for an extra-special touch!

You can’t toast with ordinary cups, either!

That’s why the kids had so much fun creating our DIY Glass Charms with cheerful sayings! Just use medium-sized silver earring hoops and slide the beads onto them. After attaching your charm to your glass, you’ll easily recognize which one belongs to you.

For our DIY Glass Charms, we chose tiny alphabet beads and arranged them into festive words, hearts, and our initials. These wine charms are wonderful favors that guests can bring home and use with their own wine glasses. They would also look adorable worn on a necklace!

Plus, your children will feel extra grown-up and important while sipping sparkling water from champagne glasses.
