Geeky Wine Glass Charms

As a geek, I have a modest collection of geek culture I enjoy: Star Wars, Harry Potter, and Lord of the Ring collectables. My wife has a fair assortment of Superman collectables as well. But looking for wine accessories that match our interests has proven to be much more difficult. Wine glasses are typically just plain in appearance. Some geeky wine stoppers exist, but not as many as one would expect. But another wine accessory that's easy to come by are Wine Glass Charms.

Wine glass charms can be easily added to a glass of wine. Most of the ones I've seen contain jeweled beads of some sort. But my favorite Glass charms I've come across are these from Etsy. This listing offers glass charms directly aimed at Geeks.

Amazon has a wide selection of charms made out of pewter. For the music geek there's this set and this set both contain my favorite instrument, the Saxophone. The first set contains highly stylized instruments while the latter set are even color appropriate for each instrument.

But by far the coolest wine glass charms are these on Amazon, dice charms. Each charm has a miniature die on it in an assortment of colors. If just the dice included some die other than a standard d6. Besides, no geek can have too many dice.

There's also charms for wine bottles, used to decorate a bottle or a large glass. These re-usable stickers are handy to decorate bottles sitting out on a counter or in storage to identify special bottles. If your'e going to splurge for these reusable-stickers, why not go for something geeky, and what is geekier and more retro than 8 bit Space Invader re-usable stickers?

Of course, some of this looks pretty easy could be made at home... but that's a post for another day.
