Stylin’ a Christmas Brunch Yogurt Bar
Friends, whether inside or outside, today I’m sharing tips for stylin’ a Christmas Brunch Yogurt Bar!
A couple of weeks ago, even though it was freezing cold, the rains had not hit yet in southern Oregon, and we hosted a Christmas Brunch Yogurt Bar outside.
So fun, with easy stylin’ tips, today I’m sharing all the details, which can be set up indoors as well!
Christmas Brunch Yogurt Bar.
BRING THE OUTDOORS IN. Fresh pine, evergreen and elements and scents of winter— always a must at Christmastime!
HANG A WREATH: On our patio lights, we hung a boxwood wreath (purchased at Trader Joe’s), but indoors your can also hang a wreath from your dining light, or string lights along the buffet area.
USE A BLANKET: A lot of color can be fun, so I placed a red plaid blanket on the table for a festive look (and feel).
USE A GIFT BAG: Bring those comforting scents to the table by placing fresh evergreen and pine in vases, or, if you want something festive, a plaid gift bag!
SET UP THE YOGURT BAR: In a large tub, place the 2 containers of Greek yogurt, then surround with ice. Don’t forget the bowls, spoons, and napkins!
SET UP THE TOPPINGS: On a tray, in small dishes, place your favorite yogurt toppings!
MAKE MUFFINS: Serve a specialty winter muffin recipe on the side. These Sour Cream Pear Pecan Muffins are the delightful!
CANDLES: There’s nothing like the warmth of candlelight. Place candles in the home (or outdoors) as a great way of making others feel at home.
SIDE OF FRUIT: For those who want to grab an apple or pear, set out a bowl of washed, fresh fruit!

Of course, the holidays are really nothing without the people. Even with the scents of Christmas, bright, festive colors in the mix, music in the background, you can have all the delicious food you hope to make or serve on the table, but it’s the people who make our gatherings complete.
And wonderful.
Happy Christmas week ahead, my friends! I’m have some inspirational posts coming up, so I hope you’ll join me this week in keeping things simple, putting your family, neighbors, those in need, and Christ FIRST.
