Gingerbread for the kids, eggnog for the adults...

       Here are photos of my Welsh cupboard decorated for a crowd of family members coming for egg nog and gingerbread. I made the gingerbread earlier in the day so that little ones can decorate these quickly before their movie night begins. The egg nog will be prepared just before serving it to our older guests. The kids prefer milk with their cookies.

Left, fill up a glass container with vintage blown glass ornaments; it's an easy way to decorate!
Right, a retro glass egg nog service set; it has adorable old-fashioned ladies and gents dashing 
through the snow to Grandma's house!


Somethin' looks like egg nog... Tasty Recipes by Tasty!


Left, a retro glass cookie jar with vintage graphics. Right, paper chains mimic white icing and 
gingerbread, plus vintage peppermint candy picks.
Left, vintage Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer gummies for fun. Right, vintage glass containers for
sugar, cinnamon and spice.
Left, a vintage looking candy cane sign, real retro milk bottles and candy canes decorate the 
second shelf of my Welsh cupboard. Right, apothecary jars stuffed with spice gumdrops, 
chocolate candies wrapped in tin foils, peppermint pillows and marshmallows.
A cardboard display of a gingerbread house, tree and boy are behind the cutting board set up for 
decorating gingerbread cookies. 
Premixed white icing, sprinkles and gum drops are prepared in advance to make cookie decorating
easy for the youngest guests at our house this year.
