Buying and Store Glassware
There are many choices of glassware and even though you don’t entertain your friends and relations often or do not drink, it is still a great investment for purchasing some beautiful glassware as you never know when you might need it.
Buying Glassware :
If you’re searching for buying glassware, here are some guidelines to help you out:
1) Combine
Being creative is key in buying glassware. One of the popular trends right now is buying old style glassware with modern ones such as champagne bowls from the fifties and pairing them up with champagne glasses of the 21st century designs.
2) Get Classic
Certain items in the glassware umbrella are considered classis and these are such as classic design cocktail glasses and vintage cocktail shakers. These styles go with any glassware concept. They add both some glamour and homage to bartending that makes making drinks a more enjoyable endeavour.
3) Try Crystal
Crystal glassware is the type that you could never go wrong with. Most people prefer crystal glassware from the 30’s and it is possible to pick up sets that are like the Waterford style without the inflated price tag to match. Crystal glassware also makes a wonderful, easy, elegant and polished decoration for your home.
4) Go for Smaller sizes
Smaller wine glasses and champagne flutes are much easier on the eye, better for handling and keep the temperature of the drink in its optimum level. When sourcing out for glassware, keep in mind its size as too big would not be so good.
Glassware Storage :
Now that you’ve got the glassware of your choosing, you’re ready to learn to properly store them. You can put heavier and bigger glassware in the cabinets. Normally, in case you are not intending on using your glassware immediately after buying them, you could keep it in its storage box till when you need to use it. Alternatively, recycling the storage boxes used to hold your glassware is always your best option every time you use the glassware. After every party and dinner, wash, clean, rinse and dry the glassware properly before placing them into their storage boxes again. Storage boxes are ideal because they came with Styrofoam and the necessary packaging materials which means that your glassware stays unbroken and undamaged.
If you aren’t the drinker type, that doesn’t mean you can’t buy glassware. Wine glasses, martini glasses, long glasses and shot glasses can be used for several other food items along with decor. Martini glasses are fantastic for serving frozen desserts such as sorbets while goblets can also be transformed into setting jellies and pudding and mousse. Shot glasses are a favourite for decor especially as tea light candle holders.
