ShareaCoke.com upped the ante by increasing the variety of names by 4x + letting you customize the iconic glass bottle on their site with any name. To celebrate, we’ve got a humongous giveaway you can enter to win.

Read on for how to enter at the bottom of this post!
Today’s DIY takes the idea of personalized Cokes and puts a wedding twist on them, using the bottles as centerpieces for a sweetheart table at the reception — so cute!
For this project, you will need:
-Mod Podge
-empty container
-X-acto knife
-foam core
-fine grain glitter
-paint brush
-printer
-masking tape
-healing gel mat or cardboard
Instructions:
1. Print an ampersand in the desired font, to about 5″ in height on normal computer print paper.
2. Tape printed ampersand with masking tape flat to foam core.
3. Place foam core on a healing gel mat or a piece of cardboard, to protect the surface you’re cutting on.
4. Use x-acto knife to cut around ampersand – when cutting foam core, don’t try to cut through the first time you slice into it, but trace the ampersand once lightly and return to cut fully through.
5. Mix 1 part glitter to 1 part mod podge in an empty container. Brush mixture onto ampersand, covering the top and sides. Then sprinkle with more glitter. Set aside to dry. Once dry return and do the other side of ampersand.
6. Using the same mod podge mixture, brush mixture on bottom half of a Share a Coke bottle. Cover the bottle fully around, and gently brush along edge of label. Sprinkle more glitter over mixture. After setting aside to dry, gently tap bottle to shake off and remove excess glitter. If any glitter dust sticks to the label or other areas of the bottle, this can simply be wiped off with a paper towel.
7. Set ampersand between two glittered Share a Coke bottles and fill bottles with flowers for a built in special centerpiece detail and vase!
