Christmas Cookie Decorating Station

Thanks For Sharing!

Disclosure: I am a member of the BHG Live Better Network. I received compensation from BHG at Walmart for this post. 

Are you hosting a holiday party this year or helping with one? We are finally in a home big enough for entertaining I am hoping to host a Christmas party this year. And that now that we have kids, as do most of our friends, kids will be included as well. So what better way to inlude them in the party than have a Christmas Cookie Decorating Station!

Christmas Cookie Decorating Station

Cookies For Santa Decorating Station! Great party activity for kids and adults.

 

And let’s be honest, I’m pretty sure it’s for the adults too. At least I’ll be diving in :)

Free Printable - Cookie Making Station

The holidays always seem to fly by and often times we end up scrambling at the last minute, like making ‘Cookies for Santa’ for Christmas Eve. With this Christmas Cookie Decorating Station your guests will have a fun activity at your party AND they can take some cookies home to leave out for Santa!

Christmas Cookie Toppings

Cookie Making Station for your next holiday party! Such a cute activity for kids and adults.

I love these square appetizer bowls from BHG at Walmart. They are the perfect size for holding candy and can be used again and again and again.

Put frosting in condiment jars to keep it mess free and easy to use!

When it comes to kid activities, you need to think about messes. I saw this idea of using squeeze bottles for frosting and it worked out perfect for this concept. It was mess free and also looks polished.

Christmas Cookie Decorating Station for kids or adults! Great party activity!

These little sprinkle containers are the only things pictured that weren’t purchased at Walmart. They were my Grandma’s and I absolutely adore them. I love being able to use her dishes for events!

    This is a fantastic idea for our family Christmas Eve party. I know the kids will love the idea of making a special cookie for Santa and I know that I will love it too!
    Also, your printables are going to make it so cute and festive.
    Thanks for the great idea and the great printables. Can’t wait to set this up!
    I think we have just found a new family tradition!

    HELLO,
    I WAS CURIOUS AS TO WHAT KIND OF ICING DID YOU USE FOR THE COOKIES? MY ICING IS SO THICK IT WOULDNT SQUEEZE OUT OF THE BOTTLES.’

      Hi – I generally make a basic frosting recipe using powder sugar, butter and a little milk. You can add more milk to make it thinner to help go through the bottles easier.

        Does this icing harden so the cookies can be stacked?! Love this idea!!

    As we are having a Crazy Christmas Sweater party this year, I decided to bake up some sweater shaped Sugar cookies. Tis will be great since the guests can ddesign their own Crazy (since not all are ugly) Sweater cookies.

    Okay, so I’m a very “silly” thinker, but do you think your (very cool) design idea could somehow transfer over to the bathroom? I was thinking, you take the same items.. Starting with the wooden tray, put various small toiletries or what-have-you in the little white dishes, maybe some of those soap flakes in the little drink holders, and shampoo and conditioner in the bottles. (Maybe change the bottles, though.)
    I also see it as a great idea for a small FROYO buffet! (((MMMMMmmmm, marshmallow creme…!!!)))
