I’ve got some follow up posts with a recipe for the delicious spicy hot chocolate and homemade marshmallows, as well as a DIY for all the cute popsicle ski crafts, so you’ll have to circle back for those.
Since this is also a blog hop, I invite you all to go see what Jewelled Interiors, Up To Date Interiors & Semigloss Design have done for their take on the Après Ski theme.
When I think of the best events there’s always a well stocked bar, a place to sit, colourful and vibrant decor, and excellent company. While I didn’t think making popsicle people was the best idea, I think I hit the nail on the head with 3/4.
I think my DIY decanter tassels are adorable, and very luxe. They’re perfect for a glam setting like this. You can catch that DIY // here //
Maple Whisky Milkshake // Blackberry Mint Julep // Chocolate & Coffee Icecubes // Spicy Pomegranate Margarita // Cocktail Freezies // Honey Peach Moscow Mule // London Lemonade // Bacon & Green Bean Ceasar // The Pink Pearl // Gingerbread Vodka Moscow Mule
The glassware and a lot of the table top stuff are finds from Homesense. These tall glasses are part of the Ralph Lauren lines they occasionally get, and I think their fluted nature is perfect for a champagne glass alternative.
Remember the fur coat I thrifted this summer? Well, I would of course wear it to a glam Glam Après Ski Bar situation, and I would hope you would do the same.
This spicy hot chocolate was the perfect pairing after a day of work. The big fluffy marshmallows are home-made, and they are the honest to god best thing I’ve ever tasted. LOVE. Circle back next week for the recipe.
While fresh fruit and citrus aren’t usually associated with a Glam Après Ski Bar, they should be. They’re a hard thing to find this time of year, plus they make the perfect garnish for a cocktail right? Grand Marnier was onto something // here //
I am not a skier either, but I would totally love to hang out with you and have a cocktail! Beautiful display!
well come on over! cheers!
A Canadian who doesn’t love winter? 😉 I’ve always lived in warm climates, so to me Maryland is way too cold. After 10 years here, I’m finally learning to deal with it.
Citrus fruit is the best during winter. 🙂 I love your bar set up! That fur!! I agree that a winter evening with drinks sounds way better than outdoor activities.
hahaha I love winter! I just don’t enjoy anything below -20c for than a few days at a time. It gets a little grating after a while 😉 I do love the snow and all hygge in the air though.
I’ve got that big bowl of citrus fruit out at all times. It instantly livens up the space and reminds me of warmer times ahead.
That fur was the ultimate thrift store score.
Such a beautiful bar Ariel! I don’t mind cross country skiing but anything with speed is not my thing. lol Love your little diy skis and poles and that Wes anderson print is divine! Beautiful vignette. Can’t wait to see and try your spicy hot chocolate recipe! Thanks so much for organzing this fun blog hop. It was really fun to do.
Same! I am terrified of high speed down mountain sports. I’m good with snow shoeing!
The spicy hot chocolate recipe goes live tomorrow, so hopefully you’ll circle back 😉
