i’m just starting to catch up on sleep, food and my Christmas to-do list
well not really catching up on the list
just trying to frantically get some of it done before the weekend. yikes.
i haven’t really got much of my decorating done besides the tree & this hot chocolate bar
i had fun putting together last weekend for my daughter’s birthday
i have grand schemes for decorating, and even though it’s late
i’m still gonna try to get some of it done
to set up your own hot cocoa station, gather some apothocary or mason jars
and fill them with whatever your heart desires ♥
the hot cocoa we use is just plain old swiss miss. we like it 🙂
and it came in a really cute throw-back vintage container that i wanted to use for something else.
swiss miss it is.
paper straws, candy canes, marshmallows, sprinkles and some candy
are what filled up our jars
the little scoops in the cocoa & sprinkles are just teaspoons & tablespoons
from a set my mom gave me from anthropologie a few years back
i remember when i got them for Christmas i thought,
oh i already have a set of measuring spoons… i probably won’t use these…
i have used them for just about everything under the sun!
sometimes moms know things.
my grandfather was an artist… like a for real one 🙂
he painted hand lettered signs for a living
he was very talented, and i’m glad i have a few of his pieces … this is one of my favorites
these voortman cookies were always in our house for Christmas when i was growing up
i remember getting excited about how colorful they were
with all those sprinkles
i love sprinkles
besided my tree i have all of two Christmas things up in our living room
this sign i heart from my bestie Becky…
and this little aqua sign from target
that’s it. i know. i better get on it.
better get busy. have lots to do
two signs just wont do
🙂
hopefully i’ll be back to show you some more Christmas fun ♥
happy hot cocoa making!
