How often have you found yourself at a party or wedding trying to balance your glass of wine in one hand and eat your plate of food with the other? Talk about mission impossible. Something always gives, and it usually involves food falling on the floor, a wine glass breaking or red wine on a white shirt.
A few years ago my sister and I attended the New York City Wine & Food Festival, and we discovered the best invention ever…the wine necklace.
I’ll concede that it’s not the prettiest or coolest necklace that I’ve ever owned, but it’s unbelievably functional.
First of all, it keeps people from stealing your wine or slipping a roofie in your glass. Second of all, it makes a statement about how much you love your wine. Lastly, it leaves your hands free to do whatever you please – eat delicious food, make balloon animals, give someone an inappropriate hand gesture, really whatever your heart desires.
These pretty necklaces can be purchased at Wine Enthusiast. They’re $24.95 for a set of two – a small price to pay for hands free wine.
i’ve seen these been sold at the annual Hunter Valley Lovedale Long Lunch for about $5 i think.
although only the big drinkers on the coach tours seem to buy them.
This is the cutest thing! I know JUST who needs this for Christmas!
