Fun wine labels

Alex and I had a few people over for wine and cheese last night, and, just as a twist, we made personal wine labels from Pinhole Press. I used a photo of Paris and the words, "Have a magical evening."

P.S. I'd also love to make this next time, haha :)

Pin It Now!

Sage Crown Parker said...

ooohhhh, i'd like some homemade wine to go with :)

gemma said...

i love everything Pinhole Press does! i am planning to order the personal wine labels for my boyfriend's birthday dinner in two months with a photo of him when he was a baby.

marissa at the boot said...

that is SUCH a good idea! that would make a really cute hostess gift, too! :)

Katie said...

I normally base my wine selections solely off how cute the label is. That being said I love this!

Maggie said...

what a perfect and creative idea! that would make a beautiful engagement gift!!

What a cute idea, Joanna! It would be especially nice to send home with guests, or to put away for later. It's always fun to take something out and say "remember when..."

and then (cheers!) drink it, of course!

Joanna Goddard said...

Wendy said...

This is an excellent idea!

I LOVE this. I plan to use custom wine labels to ask people to be in my wedding party... someday. No I'm not engaged yet. Yes. I am that girl.

Clara said...

Oh I LOVE this! I'm definitely doing this for a party. What type of wine bottles did you use? Did you have to remove their original label?

the lil bee said...

It's really funny you say that because I saw the labels and was thinking how pretty they were, and where had you gotten them? Never occurred to me that you made them! I'm pretty quick on the uptake. ;)

Louise@ButtercupDays said...

What a great idea. I love them - so simple yet effective! I'm sure I will do this soon. It's like a grownup version of my re-label chocolate bars that I did for my daughter's party bags ... http://buttercupdaysuk.blogspot.com/2011/03/party-time-part-four-bags.html

Thanks for sharing. x

I love the labels, and will definitely use this idea in the future. So fun and cute. But I have to ask, how do you manage to pull off a wine and cheese evening with a baby? Our son is just a couple of months younger than Toby, and we really haven't done much entertaining since he was born...

AMELIA ALVAREZ said...

Love this idea. I have been so into entertaining at home lately.

so many fun possibilities with these to personalize a party!!! wish i could have been a fly on the wall. you, the matchbook girls and the lil bee... a gathering of my faves, xo!

great idea-I'm going to bookmark this for future use!

Christy said...

What did you use to stick the new labels? My old-label-removal technique often leaves a gummy mess. Can you just paste (tape?) over them?

Joanna Goddard said...

clara -- the new wine labels fit right over the original wine labels (super easy) so you don't have to remove the original wine label.

Joanna Goddard said...

christy -- the labels are adhesive. so you just peel off the back and they stick right on! SUPER easy.

jenny said...

Would have loved to have been a fly on the wall at that party. I bet the conversations were fascinating.

stylecomb said...

That is so fun! Is it bad that it's only 11:35am and I am already thinking about wine?

julia said...

Off to see if they have any for beer...

abby said...

my question is, did you fight the original bottle labels off with goo-be-gone or just slap the new ones on to cover?

Mighty Burns said...

um this is an amazing idea!

laura said...

adorable! Definitely a "keeper" idea!

this is such a great idea!!! I wish I has known it before, I would have bought some special labels for my son's baptism party, wich is going to happen tomorow afternoon!

I've been enjoying a lot of DIY ideas i've seen in some blogs and putting them into practice: some gifts to the guests, some decoration details...

lola is beauty said...

OK young Mick!

Erin Harwood said...

How darling! I'm curious, what kind of cheese/wine did you have? I was surprised to see a cafe doing a wine and cupcake pairing event the other day... to me, the two don't go together.

Gabriela said...

They are having a groupon right now!

Anonymous said...

That is a wonderful ideas! Love your labels!

Carissa said...
