How to Make Disney Princess Glitter Wine Glasses

Are you a fan of wine and Disney Princesses? Well making some Disney Princess Glitter Wine Glasses are a fun and simple DIY to bring a bit of magic to your home. All you really need is some glitter, mod podge, and a wine glass and you are good to go! 

About the Glitter

I personally use Recollections Extra Fine Glitter, but the most important thing is that it is extra fine glitter. If you do not live near a Michael’s or would prefer to simply get everything off Amazon, I have also included links to my suggested colors for glitter!

How to Create an Ombre Effect for Glitter Wine Glasses

I made a separate post about how to make glitter wine glasses, specifically how to seal them properly and using two different types of glitter. You’ll find full tips and instructions here. Below, however, you’ll find the basic steps you should follow to create a nice ombre effect. 

Steps

    1. To make sure you have a straight edge for the tape, decide how far up you’d like the glitter to go and use a flat surface to mark it with tiny dots using the marker. I typically rest the marker on top of two DVD cases and make four dots around the glass.
    2. Place the tape on the glass connecting the dots to seal it off. Make sure to press down on the tape after to have it sealed against the glass.
    3. Take your brush and mod podge and paint the area where you would like to have glitter.
    4. Select the glitter you would like and begin to lightly pour over the glass onto a piece of paper, paper plate, etc. to catch the excess glitter.
    5. Optional – If you want to do an ombre look, pour glitter on the bottom of the glass first and work your way up, but stop about halfway between the bottom of the glass and where your tape begins. Leave that extra for the second color.
    6. Optional –  Add the second color if you are doing an ombre look.
    7. Place the glass to the side upside down and allow it to dry for at least an hour. I would typically let them sit longer, but leaving an hour in between didn’t make a difference.
    8. Repeat steps #4-6. Mod podge over the glitter and reapply more glitter in the areas you want it. As you paint the mod podge over, you’ll notice the paintbrush moves the glitter to blend the two colors more.
    9. Before you place the glass upside down, carefully remove the tape. I recommend doing this directly over a trashcan because the glitter will go everywhere.
    10. Once the tape is removed, place the glass upside down again to let dry.
    11. You will now add the sealing coats to the glitter. Go over all of the glitter carefully with mod podge. Let dry again.
    12. Go over the glitter one final time and let dry. I like to do the two coats to make sure it is completely sealed, but also the final sealed product is a little smoother with two coats.

    Are these useable? Does the vinyl come off when washing? Did you use the dishwasher safe modge podge?

    • Kelly

      I did use dishwasher safe modge podge, however, I still only wash these by hand. It helps make sure the vinyl lasts for awhile!

        Do you do mod podge over the vinyl as well?

          No, I just cover the glitter! Using outdoor permanent vinyl helps the design last longer.
