How to Make Wine Glass Tags Using Your Cricut

Sharing is caring!

Need a way to differentiate wine glasses? Here’s how to make wine glass tags using your Cricut.

As I slowly expand my bubble after being at home for 3 months, I wanted to have a few friends over to catch up. It was just a simple afternoon in the backyard, where we could socially distance, but be together.

As with any gathering, it’s always nice to find a way to label your wine glass so that when you put it down, you know it’s yours. Here’s an easy way to make them on your Cricut.

You can simply cut out the wine glass tags and leave them blank so that friends can write their own names on them, or you can utilize the Print and Cut feature to personalize them yourself. Either way, this makes a nice added touch to any gathering, whether it be casual or more formal.

What You Need to Make Wine Glass Tags

This is a quick and easy project that you can whip up in no time.

• cutting machine; I have a Cricut Maker and like to use that. You could easily cut these out by hand as well with a good pair of scissors, but it’s so much easier if you have a Cricut!
• cardstock – any thickness will do; that said, I find that 110lb is hard to go through my printer, I have to manually feed it. Since these are disposable, I just go for whatever pretty colour I have on hand.
• good colour printer (if you are utilizing Print and Cut). I have an HP Envy Photo Printer that I use all the time for not only crafts but for homework too.
• pens for your Cricut (if you are utilizing Write).
• optional: thin gauge wire, twine, yarn, raffia or ribbon – to attach to the glasses. I just used what I happened to have in my crafting stash.

I made these simple, heart-shaped wine tags on Cricut Design Space. Access this free cutting file in my Free Resource Library. To gain access to the library, simply subscribe to my blog (I don’t send too many newsletters out) and you will find the password at the bottom of my emails.

Clicking on the link in my Free Resource Library should open up Cricut Design Space with the heart-shaped templates all ready to go. You will notice that I have 2 different templates:

• fully enclosed heart with small heart cut out: this template would be tied around the stem of the wine glass. Although this requires a bit of assembly, they will stay on longer.
• slightly larger heart with an opening: the opening allows you to easily put around the wine glass. It’s quick and easy. I prefer this when it’s a small gathering or if it is just for a short period of time – I’d worry they might fall off after a while, but for a couple hours, they were fine. This would be a good option if you want a bunch of blank ones for people to write their own names. Just put a small basket of these next to your wine glasses, along with a pen or sharpie. Each guest would then attach themselves.

Both templates can be customized with whatever you want on them.

These are sized to the wine glasses I have. I personally don’t like them bigger than the bottom plate. You can easily resize these to work with the glasses you have. You’ll notice that the one with the opening is slightly larger, since it wraps around the stem, it can be slightly bigger.

How to Customize Using Print and Cut

You can easily customize these wine tags using the Print and Cut feature on Cricut Design Space.

As the wine glass tags are fairly small, I’d recommend clear and easy symbols or single words. You could obviously do names.

Once you’ve positioned your graphic or text on top of the heart template, you’ll need to “flatten”. This melds it all together so that you can print and cut. This option is located on the bottom right.

You could also utilize the write feature. I personally just find it easier to do the print and cut. If you are using text, be sure to use a font that is designated for “write”. Not all fonts can do that on Cricut Design Space. Typically the fonts that can write, you have to pay for – which is why I prefer Print and Cut because then you can use any font.

Make the Wine Glass Tags

If you are cutting a bunch, you can cut right away. If you have customized these using Print and Cut, you will need to print first and then cut. Don’t forget to add your card stock to your printer before you tell it to cut.

These little wine tags are so easy to make. They would be great at any gathering, including birthday parties or wedding showers. You could use Print and Cut to customize for the occasion and leave space for people to write their names.
