Romantic Font DIY Bridal Party Flutes
I love using champagne flutes as proposal items or getting ready items for weddings, they're such a romantic and classy way to toast to your future together. These flutes are perfect for either of those purposes or any shower or wedding event! Plus I made decals for not only the bridesmaids, maid of honor, matron of honor if you have one, and the bride; but also for the mothers of the bride and groom so that you can make sure all of your ladies feel extra special at your wedding.
I made these decals in Silver Glitter Vinyl and they turned out beautifully, but I love to see how they would look in the Metalized Vinyl, especially Rose Gold!
I used the font Clarissa while designing these decals, and you can download for free at dafont.com to use for personalizing these flutes or any of your other wedding projects!

Supplies:
Stemless Champagne Flutes
Permanent Adhesive Vinyl
Transfer Paper
Craft Cutter and Toolset
Flute Design Cut Files
After downloading the cut files, import them into the Cricut Software. After creating a new project, select Upload Image. Select the file you wish to upload and it will automatically take you to the final upload screen, where you can name the file, then select Save.
Cut the design(s) in your choice of permanent adhesive vinyl with the Vinyl Setting on your Cricut. The SVG Files are sized so that they will automatically cut to the size you see in the photos, but if you want to change the size to whatever you like.
3.Once the designs are cut, weed away the extra vinyl and cut a piece of transfer tape to 2" x 5". Cut away any excess backing from the vinyl design and smooth transfer tape over the design, aligning it to along the first letter of the designs with the bottom lines of the tape aligning to the text as shown below. Make sure to align it such that 1” of the transfer tape is to the left of the first letter to use in placing it properly on the glasses later. I accidentally only put my decals .5” away, so you’ll see in later photos that I overlapped a piece of transfer tape on top to get the right spacing.
4. After smoothing the transfer tape of the design with the smoother tool, remove the transfer tape from the backing, lifting the design from the backing with the transfer tape.
5. Using the transfer tape as a spacer, smooth the design onto the flutes, aligning the short side of the transfer tape along the top edge of the glasses. I adhered mine as shown to the right. with the tape parallel to the top of the glass just under the rim.
6. Once the transfer tape is aligned along the top, smooth it onto the glass from top to bottom. I smoothed mine by tracing the letters from top to bottom until the entire design was smoothed onto the flute, as shown below.
7. Once the design has been smoothed and all air bubbles are removed, remove the transfer tape to leave the design on the flute. Repeat the process for all the remaining flutes.
