These adorable reindeer bags couldn’t be simpler to make (the secret is all store-bought ingredients)! Fill a cone-shaped plastic baggie with two packets of instant cocoa mix and top with a handful of marshmallows. Tie the baggies with pipe cleaners to create antlers, and secure eyes and a nose using a glue stick. These make great party favors for children, and if you’d like to hand them out to adults, Ayesha suggests including a small bottle of chocolate liqueur for a special treat!

This is such a pretty centerpiece that’ll be sure to light up your holiday tablescape. Grab a mason jar and add a little bit of fake snow. Take a small strand of battery operated lights and bury the battery compartment inside the snow. Top off with a little more snow, stuff the remainder of the string of lights inside the jar, pop on the lid and you’re finished. To make this look rustic on your table, place it on top of a wooden bark charger and decorate with a few sprigs.
