CUTE ALERT! – Christmas Bauble Drinks

christmas-hot-chocolate-eggnog

Oh my Goodness these are adorable! It makes me want to throw a Christmas Party for friends just so I can impress them with home-made Eggnog in glass baubles. Totally love this idea it is so festive and fun and dare I say it again adorable! The only problem I foresee is people being unable to put them down or they will literally roll off the table. I am not a big fan of the lentils under them but think some rock salt or Epsom salt would look more like ice and less like grass. For the original image source check out this link.

Here are some other great ways to serve drinks.

Punch bowl – It’s a little 80’s but get’s the job done.

Inflatable Ice trough – If you are serving individual drinks this is great for keeping them cool

Drink Dispenser with tap – Allows you to make your own drink recipes

Vintage Drink Dispenser – Decorative and saves the environment on the packaging.

Mason jars with straws – Great for on the go smoothies for school too.

Lighted Punch bowl – I have this exact same one and it is lot’s of fun, we use it for different occasions.

The designs from Bella Rose Craft look like they would be good for beginner cross stitchers and others who like relatively simple and small designs that are quick to finish for gifts or decor.

I’ll mention up front that this Etsy shop based in Indiana has no organization whatsoever. There are two categories: kits and patterns. So it’s a bit of a treasure hunt to find what you might be interested in.

As mentioned there are lots of minis and small looking projects with simple lines and minimal colors. There are holiday projects, animals, summer motifs like palm trees and beach umbrellas, a bathtub with a rubber duck, some text based designs (like hoppy spring and merry and bright), some biblical and religious designs, flowers, bunting and more.

On a site like this its difficult to pick something representative of the whole page, but I liked this bees and beehive design, so it’s the one I picked to share. This one illustrates a lot of my general points about the patterns from this shop. It’s small (2.79 by 2.57 inches, or about 7 by 6.5 cm on 14 count fabric), it looks like it’s all whole cross stitches and probably uses only six colors, and a couple of colors are only used for a handful of stitches.

Of the 300 plus cross stitch patterns available as of this writing, 140 are also available as cross stitch kits. These would be great to give as gifts if you’re trying to get someone interested in cross stitching. The kits include the pattern, fabric and floss, and you can choose to have it include a needle or not. The hoop is not included but the patterns explain what kind of hoop is shown if you want to get one to match.

So if you’re looking for cute, beginner friendly patterns for yourself or you’re trying to be a crafty enabler for someone else, check out Bella Rose Craft on Etsy.
