Giveaway: Unicorn Wine Charms by FantastiCrafts

EDIT: Giveaway is officially over! Congratulations to the randomly chosen 134th commenter, Asuka!

Wouldn't these unicorn wine charms add a little magic to your next celebration? Nicole of FantastiCrafts paired these four fantastical metal charms with blue seed beads and purple accent beads on a medium sized wire ring that will fit most stemmed glassware. She's gifting a set to one of my blog readers this holiday season!

When Nicole was only eleven, her mom bestowed her with hemp supplies from the 70s that she'd found. Nicole has been making unique jewelry ever since. It wasn't until eight years later that her hobby became a serious business venture - thanks to another present from her mother, a handmade necklace. "It was so beautiful and I was surprised that it was made entirely of beads and findings that I recognized from local craft stores. I was inspired by the realization that this was something I could make, and my talent took off from there. It wasn't long before I was no longer giving away jewelry, but selling it!"

Nicole is always branching out and creating new items. In addition to the unusual wine charms, her shop overflows with colorful and trendy charm and bead jewelry, stitch markers, and funky hair accessories, as well as religious icon magnets and bookmarks.
