Holiday desserts and drinks could easily be the best part about this time of year. Hot cocoa, eggnog, and White Russians slowly but surely make their way into our homes and hearts.

If you’re wondering what the burgundy drink in these glasses is, it’s Trader Joe’s new Winter Wassail. It basically tastes like how a Christmas candle smells, and it’s both interesting and addicting. Cheers to yet another holiday drink we can’t live without!

We decided to make some festive glassware for the holidays with our new Silhouette Cameo Machine. We purchased this machine on Black Friday and became instantly addicted. So get ready for a ton of vinyl projects.

This was our very first Cameo project so you can imagine the stress that went into these glasses. We were basically holding our breaths and trying not to cry or scream at each other during the process. But when it was all said and done we were super happy with how they turned out!

Supplies: 

Directions:

  1. Open this file in your silhouette studio
  2. Upload the file onto your USB flash drive
  3. Load a sheet of gold metallic vinyl into your cameo machine
  4. Plug your flash drive into the USB port on the cameo. Find the “FA LA LA” file and select “cut.”
  5. Cut a piece of transfer paper, just big enough to cover your design. Peel off one side and place it on top of your design. Use the scraper tool to press the transfer paper firmly on top of the vinyl design.
  6. Peel the transfer paper away from the vinyl and your design should stick to the transfer paper. Now is the best time to cut the FA LA LA’s out, so you can use one for each glass.
  7. Place your design where you want it on the glass. Use the scraper tool to press down on the design. Peel the transfer paper off and your design should stick to the glass.
  8. Repeat on glass #2

NOTE: You don’t necessarily need a Silhouette Cameo machine (or a Cricut Explore) for this project! You can always print out the design, trace it on top of the vinyl and cut it out by hand.
