Welcome to our DIY Crafts series! DIY Crafts is focused on crafts that we have done, crafts that we will do and crafts that others have done that I feel deserve the “Craft Spotlight“. I invite you to check back often as I share these projects with you. You can view all of the DIY Crafts by visiting our DIY and Arts & Crafts section.

Modern Dad here! I am happy to share a craft with you that I did recently. One that will save you money and look cool too.

I’m not a wine snob at all, it all tastes just ok to me, and serves just about one purpose. In fact, all we drink out of are mason jars anyway. You can take the boy out of Alabama but you can’t take the Alabama out of the boy. My wife is right there with me drinking her lemonade out of a mason jar as well. That’s our fine china, or hillbilly crystal as I call it.

Christmas is coming up and I thought I’d hunt around for some wine glasses for us, because after all, we can’t always drink wine from a cup… or can we? After a few searches, I found a way to have the best of both worlds for us….

Introducing the Redneck Wine Glass…

Supplies:

Glass Candlestick(s)
Mason Jar(s)
Sand Paper
Glass Glue

Super cheap and super classy, err country.

Instructions:

Rough the top edges of the candlesticks with the sandpaper.

Line with glass glue and press to the bottom of your mason jar. I chose a medium sized but fit to your liking.

Make sure it’s centered and press together for about 15 seconds and leave to cure over night.

Simple, creative and country.

Impress your guests with your hillbilly crystal and serve some down-home punch, Texas tea, or fruit wine.

Cheers!
