Hillbilly Wine Glasses

We are at 17 days 'til the wedding! I think we are pretty much done, except the food and little things here and there. 
Since the colors are pink and green and mason jars are being used in the decor, the bride decided to also use burlap and lace. She also saw some cool looking "wine" glasses. We figured we could make them. So we got a couple of medium size mason jars, and couple of candle sticks. You can usually get these at the dollar store, but I had a some on hand that I've had for over thirty years. Probably used them once; I decided to donate them to the cause.
We bought some burlap ribbon and found this cute flower trimming...perfect!
The bride found this cute key chain with "Two Peas In A Pod" that I dangled off the candle stick after I wrapped the stem in hemp.
And this is what the "wine" glass turned out to look like. Now I had to do something for the groom that wasn't so feminine.
I changed the hemp up a bit.
Found some rick rack and added some white and pink buttons I had on hand, and went to gluing. After everything dries, I need to clean up the glue mess a bit.
And there ya have it....two "Hillbilly Wine Glasses..." Now all I got to do is get some sparklin' cider.
