Anyone doing wine charms?

I've benn looking into DIY wine charms that I'd like to add to our STD's. Anyone make them and have tips they can share?
Where did you get your supply? I'm planning on hitting Micheals tonight and doing a through check on their supply of stuff.

Do you think I'll run into an issue with the post office on mailing them? (one charm per STD)

As long as they're not heavy, I can't see why you would have an issue with the post office.

Sounds like a very cute idea, but not something I've done.

Someone on another board just posted a link to Michael's coupons - quite a few this week, hopefully you can use some (link below).

thank you Reese!!
I'll check it out.
I'm hoping to mail a single charm to each STD but want to make sure that they come out somewhat flat. I'd have to do a tester before I start making them. It would be a waste of energy if I made them all and found out the post office kicks them out.
