Champagne Cocktails For Your Wedding

by

Champagne is one of those drinks that simply means “Celebration”, Of course this is not it’s literal translation. Champagne is named after an area in France where the first Champagne was created. Champagne ,in France used to a sea bed and it’s believed these rich minerals are what makes the wine so special. That is of course if you are drinking Champagne from actual Champagne otherwise you’re actual just drinking sparkling wine. But don’t fret, it’s the same thing just a different (cheaper) name.

We have treated you to this top 10 roundup of Champagne spritzers or Cocktails for your Wedding or party. The best thing about Champagne cocktails is that the use less champagne which means you can afford to have the drinks “flowing” as they say.  It cuts down your costs, whilst allowing your guests to enjoy a glass of bubbles. I have to say my favorite is the candy floss cocktail but that one is pure champagne with just the decoration on top, it’s easy to do though but not cheaper.

Did you know Marilyn Monroe took a bath in champagne? It took 350 bottles to fill up the tub.

Woolie and Furry Upcycled Slippers by Made By Barb

If you’re a fan of cozy, sustainable crafting, the Woolie & Furry Upcycled Slippers tutorial by Made By Barb is a must-try. This project combines creativity, comfort, and eco-consciousness, resulting in a pair of slippers that are both stylish and functional.

What Makes These Slippers Special?

Barb’s approach to slipper-making is rooted in upcycling, using materials like old Ugg boots, vintage wool blankets, and shearling from repurposed jackets. This not only gives new life to items that might otherwise be discarded but also ensures that each pair of slippers is unique. The use of thick, doubled wool provides substantial warmth and durability, making these slippers ideal for chilly mornings or lounging at home.

The Crafting Process

The tutorial is detailed and accessible, guiding you through each step with clear instructions and helpful tips. Barb introduces the concept of free-motion sewing, encouraging you to “doodle with a sewing machine” to create quilted patterns on the wool. This technique adds a personal touch to the slippers and enhances their texture. The pattern is designed for women’s size 8.5–9 feet but can be easily adjusted for different sizes by printing at a slightly smaller scale.

Materials You’ll Need

  • Old Ugg boots or shearling jackets

  • Vintage virgin wool blankets

  • Free-motion sewing foot for your sewing machine

  • Waxed thread and a strong needle

  • Contact cement for attaching soles

  • A pair of old sandals or flip-flops for the base

 

The Woolie & Furry Upcycled Slippers tutorial by Made By Barb is a delightful project for anyone interested in sustainable crafting. The slippers are not only warm and comfortable but also a testament to the beauty of upcycling. Whether you’re looking to treat yourself or create a thoughtful gift, this tutorial provides all the guidance you need to craft a pair of cozy slippers that are as unique as they are functional.
