Manuella was a journalist in Spain before moving to the UAE and joining ARTE. She loves working with fabrics and sequins, but her latest passion is recycling and saving the environment.

Manuella loves to give parties, especially in the summer, but it bothers her how many glasses are used and the waste this causes for the environment in terms of water from washing glasses or rubbish from disposable cups. She wanted to help cut down on such waste. She had heard about glass charms and she decided to make some. They were  a success! Her friends all wanted them and at the end of the evening, she had about half the glasses to wash. Ever-charm was born!

Ever-Charms glass trinkets are reuseable and made from zinc-alloy which makes them long lasting. They add a touch of elegance to your table while allowing your guests to easily identify their own glasses throughout your event. You can buy individual charms or sets of 6 that have themes such as Arabic, coastal or holidays! Each set is handmade personally with lots of thought and love by Manuella. Want a personal theme? Manuella is happy to customize one for you.

Ever-Charms are not just for glasses. They are the perfect compliment to bottles that hold your oils. lotions and spices that you might find in your kitchen, bathroom or bedroom.

Ever-charms also add a bit of fun to handbags; cell/mobile phones; gift packages;  zippers or special objects to add that bit of elegance.
