A New Tradition: Ornament Parties

Every holiday provides a time for family traditions, however it doesn’t have to be exactly the same every year.  We all know that children in preschool and elementary school always come home with a handmade ornament that they created all on their own.  Who says making ornaments is reserved for just the kids?  Making beautiful ornaments can be a joyous activity for all ages and can even become a tradition for you and your friends. So why not throw an ornament party?

This isn’t just arts and crafts; it is a social activity that can be accompanied by some of Mira’s most delectable bottles of wine. Your guests will surely enjoy socializing at you winter get-together, enjoying a glass of wine while covering a snowflake cut out with glue and dipping it in sparkles to create a simple yet beautiful ornament for their home. Ornaments can be made from a variety of supplies, such as winter themed cookie cutters, ribbon, glitter, and a little glue. A boxwood kissing ball is a simple decoration that only takes a Styrofoam ball, small hedge clipping with berries, a ribbon, and of course a little glue.  You can even use wine corks to create a beautiful token to hang on your tree!

And the best part is that at the end of the night everyone will have a little something to take home with them and hang on their tree every year to serve as a memory of the evening and the good times shared.
