Sweet cranberries

11.30.10 Posted in Christmas, diy, food, winter by Victoria

A month ago when it was still 80 degrees outside I set up three very differently styled holiday parties. It was a fun way to transfer the holiday ideas welling up inside of me. Plus, it now allows me to share pretty inspiration with you all month long while I leisurely sip on hot cocoa:)

My favorite cranberries seemed a very sweet way to start this season’s celebrations together.

A pretty bowl of sugared cranberries will certainly brighten up your holiday table. The recipe is a treasured find from my first year of marriage. I have made them for celebrations every year since. They serve as a fabulous alternative to a floral centerpiece and can even be sent home in little bags as parting favors.

I love to use sprinkles mixed with sugar to give these cranberries an extra sparkle when preparing them for a celebration. A pretty fabric flag (tutorial found here) is a festive way to finish off a gravy boat filled to the brim with their sweetness.

PS. Last year I wrote a few words with cranberries, that was also a fun way to use them!
