This project is part of The Proper Pinwheel’s holiday series, Mission: Merry 2012.
Who’s throwing a holiday party?!?!? These Jingle Bell Cocktail Stirrers are the perfect accessory for your beverages. Easy to make, and fun to jingle while you sip, these just make sense in your drink, no?
To make your own jingle bell cocktail stir sticks you’ll need:
- red and white stir sticks
- silver bows with pipe cleaner
- assorted jingle bells
- hot glue gun
The silver bows are finished with pipe cleaner. Unwrap that a little and re-wrap it around the tops of each cocktail stirrer. Use a little hot glue to seal in place. Attach little jingle bells with small amounts of hot glue. There’s no pattern. Just place them randomly. They can win anywhere.
Let the glue dry, mix up some fun holiday beverages for your party, and jingle the night away! Your guests will thank you.

I love a good cocktail stirrer, and this project is super charming!
Thanks, Mandy! Sorry I’m so slow to respond! The holidays were just crazy over here! Happy 2013!
This are adorable! Didn’t see those stir sticks at Target. Were they in the holiday section? Btw love your nails!
Don’t mind me and how I suck at responding. December just flew by and I couldn’t scrape up time to get on the computer! These sticks weren’t in the holiday section. They are just normal multi-colored stir sticks in the paper plate/cup aisle. I just pulled out all the red and white ones! 🙂
I want to make these for our work holiday party but can’t find the pipe cleaner bows anywhere. Can you help? Maybe a website link?
