UK-BASED interior designer and muralist Annie Newman has a new obsession — decorating champagne glasses to make them look more glamorous and interesting. Her new creations are almost like “chandeliers” and she takes great pride in decorating them.

“It was one of those moments when I wanted to try something exciting on a champagne glass. It is actually an expression of my personal style. You can even etch names onto the glasses,” said the law graduate, who switched to interior design (ID).
