RHS Wine (or any drink!) Charm Craft Instructions

Materials Needed (for each charm):

• 1 wine charm ring or 1-inch hoop earring finding
• Red and purple beads (mix shapes, sizes, and finishes for sparkle!)
• Alphabet beads: “R”, “H”, and “S”
• Red Hat-themed charm (hat, teacup, crown, etc.)
• 1 jump ring (to attach your themed charm)
• Needle-nose pliers

Instructions:

Step 1: Design Your Layout
Lay out your design before stringing. Try this balanced order:
🔴 🟣 “R” “H” “S” 🟣 🔴
Use 2–3 red and purple beads on each side of the letters for visual symmetry and flair.

Step 2: Assemble the Charm
Carefully open your charm ring. Slide on the beads in your arranged order, placing “RHS” in the center.

Step 3: Add the Hanging Charm
Use your pliers to gently open the jump ring. Slip on your Red Hat-themed charm, then attach it to the bottom of the wire loop (just under the center letter, “H”).

Step 4: Finish and Secure
Close the charm ring tightly and give it a gentle twist to ensure everything is snug and secure
