5 Ways To Have A Merry Friendsmas!

5 Ways To Have A Merry Friendsmas!

Thereโ€™s nothing better than spending the holidays with people you love. However, with all the hustle and bustle around this amazing time, it can be hard to find time to get together and celebrate. As an early Christmas present to you, here are five activity ideas to help you throw the coziest Friendsmas ever.

1.) Bring-A-Festive-Board

I feel comfortable when is say EVERYONE loves a good charcuterie board these days. The fun thing about charcuterie boards, is how versatile they are! Have your friends all pick a category to build their festive snack board around and then enjoy them all potluck style with cozy Christmas music and a holiday movie marathon! Here are some ideas for categories to choose from! The options are endless!

  • Classic board

  • Dessert board

  • Fruit board

  • Chip board 

  • Pickled board

  • Fondue board

  • Candy board

  • Hot Cocoa board

  • Breakfast board

  • Sushi board

  • Veggie board

  • Caprese board <3

2.) Disco Christmas Tree and Photoshoot!

With artists like Dua Lipa and Sabrina Carpenter hitting the charts recently, disco is officially back in full swing. This Christmas, decorate to dance. Disco balls make the perfect ornaments for your tree and create such cute phot opportunities! Get your friends together and take radiant and sparkly festive photos with only a few materials! You could even craft a holiday card to send to friends and family after!

Plusโ€ฆyouโ€™ll already be decorated for New Years this way!

3.) Craft-A-Christmas-Cocktail Competition

Get your besties together to play Santaโ€™s Favorite Bartender and craft each other creative and festive Christmas cocktails! Then you each vote on your favorite beverage and crown the winner. Plusโ€ฆyou can use your new refreshments to play drinking games to holiday movies after! Here is some recipe inspo for you:

Here are some Drinking Games, Babe! Cheers!

4.) Paint Seasonal Candles Together :)

Ok, back to our wholesome, regularly scheduled program. Candle sticks have been becoming more and more popular over the past year for home decor and they make amazing gifts. Did you know you could paint candles and easily customize them? Get your favorite artists together and grab a few materials to make each other cute and functional gifts!

Some fun themes to paint are holly, Christmas trees, ornaments, snowflakes, gingerbread & Christmas candy, the 12 nights of Christmas and so much more! These make excellent stocking stuffers too!

5.) Build Each Others Dream Gingerbread House!

Property Brothers meets Great British Bake Off, are you following? The premise of this activity is to draw a nameout of a hat, and build that person a gingerbread house, you think they would love. You could execute in a Barbie Dream House Aesthetic, Post-Modernism, Witchy Cottage, and even Modern! This is a lighthearted and creative activity that will push the boundaries of what real estate is ๐Ÿ˜Ž.


I hope you use all these ideas during this holiday season! If you need one more way to cozy up this winter, browse our Online Boutique and make a wishlist, Babe! Santa might surprise you :)

Toodles!
