Sunday Brunch is one of the greatest joys in my life (helloooo, quiches, muffins, and mimosas!), and Sunday Brunch with my favorite girlfriends is one of the best things EVER! As busy moms and business owners, we don’t get the opportunity to spend as much time together as we would like, so we thoroughly enjoy and cherish every moment of each Sunday Brunch that we get to spend together. It’s a simple but memorable affair, and it always leaves each of us with a renewed spirit and grateful heart.

This time, I wanted to create something extra special and sparkly for our girls’ brunch, so I decided to give our champagne glasses a gradient ombré glitter makeover. It may look fancy schmancy, but it’s actually a super quick and easy project that’s sure to impress your guests!

How to Make DIY Glitter Champagne Glasses

What You’ll Need: 

painting mod podge and glitter mixture onto glasses

In a paint tray or small bowl, combine equal amounts of Mod Podge and glitter – start with the darkest color at the bottom. Use the paintbrush to paint the mixture onto the bottom of each glass using short upward strokes.

Repeat the process for each of the colors, moving toward the top of the glass with each new color. Overlap the glitter paint with the previous color to create the ombré effect. Allow the glasses to dry completely.

(Note: additional coats of glitter paint can be applied if needed. You do NOT need to wait for the paint to dry completely before applying an additional coat. Allow to thoroughly dry after the final coat. I used two coats for each of the purple colors and one coat of white gold.)

So, what type of brunch cocktail is worthy of being served in these gorgeous new glasses? A lavender lemonade Prosecco cocktail, of course!

How to Make a Lavender Lemonade Prosecco Cocktail

To make the lavender lemon syrup, combine 1 cup of sugar, 1/4 cup of lemon juice, 3/4 cup water, 1 tablespoon of dried lavender (can also substitute fresh lavender or 3 drops of food-grade lavender essential oil), and 2-3 drops of neon purple food coloring (if desired). Simmer over low-medium heat for 15 minutes, allow to cool for 15 minutes, and pour through a fine mesh strainer to remove the lavender buds from the syrup.

    1. This recipe makes enough for approximately 6 drinks, so you would want to make at least triple the amount of syrup. 🙂

    1. It will last at least a week (we’ve always used ours up by then, so I can’t speak as to whether or not it will last longer than that!). 🙂

  1. I would like to know if the glitter comes off on your hands. I think this is beautiful but I hate getting a card or using anything with glitter because of that.

    1. No, it doesn’t! That’s the beauty of mixing the glitter with Mod Podge – it stays where you paint it and it doesn’t get all over the place when you touch it! I can’t guarantee that you might not get one or two stray sparkles on your hands, but any “shedding” should be VERY minimal! 🙂

  2. Oh, my goodness, I love this whole post. Every picture is so pretty. I have pinned this recipe and one of the activities on my summer bucket list is mastering the making of an adult beverage. This might be the one. Where would I find edible lavender essential oil?

  3. Is there a way to make this drink non-alcoholic for a Mother-Daughter Girl Scout Spa Day? I love the way it all looks together! I’m thinking sparkling champagne, but not sure if the taste would be right?

    1. Absolutely! You can substitute lemon-lime soda for the prosecco (that’s what I do for my kids!), and it still tastes delicious!
