I received these stunning handblown wine glasses from Byrdeen.

A drink of any kind tastes better from a pretty glass. Your wife, mother, or friend can enjoy breakfast in style by filling a glass with water or orange juice and finishing the day with their favorite beverage.

Every day is worth to be celebrated!

Byrdeen has many beautiful glasses in their collection, in addition to these lovely pink-stemmed wine glasses. These just happen to be my favorite. Each glass has a story behind it. Can you guess what inspired the pink ones?

Other options include a colorful Mezclada set and the Quetzal inspired by a Costa Rican bird. Before I read the story behind the Quetzal glasses, I thought of mermaids. Birds, mermaids, either way, these wine glasses with colorful stems are a perfect 50th birthday gift for her.

Which one would your wife, friend, or mom prefer?

And to make it even easier for the gift-giver, all the glasses, from champagne flutes to stemless, come in a pretty gift box ready to be given to the birthday star.
