This next D.I.Y. round up is full of sweet treats! Emma created this gorgeous dessert table for Le Wedding Party last week. She had tons of great tips for creating elegant dessert tables! I think this would be just perfect for a holiday party!
Try a mid-century modern gingerbread house like these by Cincinnati Modernation and Katie Cupcake.
I lovelovelove these tiny gingerbread houses for mugs. LOVE.♥
and this candy cane cooler is such a cute little cocktail.
Do you have any favorite treats? I want to make a new christmas eve meal tradition with Mr. Larson. aweeee. XO. elsie

my favorite holiday treat is coconut rumballs. We make them after thanksgiving and let them marinate in the fridge for like a month. They're soooooo much better than normal rumballs!
Love the candy cane drink. Looks delicious!

Last week I invented a candy cane based cocktail. I am yet to blog it but I can tell you it was pretty special.

Our family tradition has always been a supper of cinnamon rolls with peanut butter, potato sausage and wine... Ever since I can remember! A bit strange I suppose, but it's tradition!
