Tapas Wine Lids

The Wine Glass Appetizer Plates Let You Walk, Wine & Dine at the Same Time

— June 25, 2014 — Lifestyle
You can mingle at your next party with ease thanks to these Wine Glass Appetizer Plates by Napa Style. The nifty plates act as wine glass lids and appetizer plates simultaneously.

They are miniature, reusable wooden plates and can fit over wine glasses three inches in diameter. The plates allow you to snack in functional form. No longer are the days of awkwardly meeting someone with a drink and plate in each hand a common occurrence. Now, you can free your hand for a greeting by perching the plate on the glass securely; they will not tip or swivel so there is no need to search for a table.

Each plate, which is inspired by Spanish tapas, is very durable and is handcrafted in Vermont from maple wood.
