Wind Down with Wine Poured into Hand-Painted Glasses from #ValentinaParis

Have you noticed the increase in wine-drinking mom's these days? Seriously. You can even enjoy a glass of wine at many hair salons and spas these days. And honestly... I think it's fabulous! While I don't drink frequently, there are simply times in life when sitting down with a big glass of wine
magically makes all of the troubles of a stressful week seem to disappear, even if only for a moment.

A couple of weeks ago, while pulling one of my only two wine glasses out of the cabinet, I hit another glass which careened into the area where I was reaching. While trying to save the wine glass left in the cabinet, I accidentally dropped the one in my hand, and both of them went crashing to the floor at the same time. If it weren't for the fact that I find no shame in sipping my wine from a red Solo cup, my "de-stressing" moment could have ended up a disaster. But then, a couple days later, I received an offer to receive these fabulous, beautifully hand-painted wine glasses for free in exchange for my honest review. The timing couldn't have been better!

The picture of this wine glass doesn't do it much justice, as it is actually HUGE.  I could easily drink half my bottle of wine in one pour if I wasn't careful.  (I mean, I wouldn't know. I've never thrown down that much wine in one night... neeeever).

These gorgeous hand-painted wine glasses from Valentina Paris come delivered as a set of two. With just minor flaws, it's obvious these glasses were hand-painted.  However, the slight imperfections are what I think makes them absolutely perfect and unique. After all, anything created to perfection is not "unique".

The best thing about these glasses is that they serve a dual purpose. While I am not using them, I have found a safe place to store them on display in my dining room, where they fit in perfectly to my decor. I've already had several friends and family members comment about how gorgeous they are. Looks like I know what I'll be buying for upcoming birthday and holiday gifts later this year!!
