christmas card | little lessons in a BIG city

I’m not so dainty, but ..

you’ve heard them called redneck wine glasses. or hillbilly wine glasses. neither option great, but when faced with a decision ..I went with the latter.

until now.

when [J] & I opened our {TwoCoins} Etsy shop, we were offering one standard set of “mason jar stemware”. less than a week later, the boss put her foot down [that’s me. and I’m joking] ..we now have a ..

stemware collection.

and I have taken the liberty to less offensively, more politically correctly rename the “hillbilly/redneck wine glasses” .. [who does she think she is? I know!]

let me proudly introduce you to …

there are ..

which are absolutely perfect for your holiday cocktails. [they happily hold 4oz of your choice of beverage].

[J] & I went with the spiked egg nog – filled up our glasses. and garnished them each with a chocolate peppermint stick.

so scrumptious.

these fun cordial glasses even took a starring role in our christmas card photo. [to be revealed december 25th].

I’m attached.

these cordial glasses could also be the prettiest dang shot glass you’ve ever served a shot in. shots, shots, shots, shots everrrrybody.

we also have ..

I’m the kind of gal who likes her margaritas by the 32; ounces that is. but I cannot get over how adorable these glasses are, even if they’re only 8oz of lime, tequila-y goodness. guess I’ll just have to go back for seconds. [I’m on the look out for a grande size].

and don’t forget about our not-so-dainty wine glasses ..

bottoms up!!

if you have some last minute christmas shopping to do ..head over to {TwoCoins} Etsy shop. have a look. or buy a couple things for yourself :)

happy monday.

[whoooooa].

the week in photos.

it’s the last day of november.

and surprisingly, I’m ready & excited for december. I spent alllll day yesterday organizing my life [budgets, job search material, etc]. so I am anticipating next month to be very productive & rewarding. [with a lot of hard work, of course].

on the same note – someone tell [J]: november is his date month. and it ends at midnight tonight. he’s rapidly running out of time. [yes, yes I was a little late executing my {october date}, but I think the effort I put in blew away the fact it was two days into november. just saying].

now ..

the last week of november in photos.

it’s so hard [for me] to go to a mexican restaurant and not get a margarita. it was lunchtime. one thing to say: it’s 5 o’clock somewhere folks! [and don’t let a clock tell you when it’s acceptable to enjoy a cocktail. a european would NEVER judge an afternoon boozy beverage].
I forced [J] to accompany me on a late night convenient store adventure. this is what we returned home with. [I don’t normally drink soda OR eat bags of chips. AND I was sober ..must’ve been a full moon?].
tell me what is better than hobby lobby during the holidays? we didn’t get the hat, yet.
quite possibly the beginnings of a christmas photo. to be christmas card. and the best holiday props ever. [also from hobby lobby].
the tree is up, lit, and decorated. [I’ll put a finished product shot up next week].
the perfect desk accessory: a chalkboard, rocking your fav/latest inspirational quote.
over-sized sweaters. accompanied by leopard scarves. my winter staple. [outfit post?].
got three new julep nail polishes. currently wearing: dark purple. with white polka dots on my ring fingers.
