Holiday drinking

Post by Stewmuse » Wed Dec 25, 2019 12:30 am

Something old, something new (and blue). The Advent Mini-booze tree has finished its third year and now we’ve added the Twelve Days if Christmas Champagne “snowflake.” Enjoy and possibly be inspired...

You could make a menora (sp?) and have 8 nights of Hannukah Hooch...

This year I made my own Beer Advent Calendar from the Create Your Own 6pack shelved I the grocery store. However I’m more into whiskey then beer. Next year I’m going to try your Hooch Tree idea.
Where did you find the tree and snow flake?

From my garage workbench, thanks. We might do beers instead of champagne next year.

I made the tree out of a piece 2' x 4' finished birch (from my local Menards - I think they refer them as Handy Panels). The individual shelves are made from a piece 1" x 2" pine, each cut about 3" long long. Each individual shelf is attached via a screw from the back side. To get the desired pattern of shelves (with the correct number, of course), I laid them out loosely onto the cut tree, then marked the center of each and drilled a pilot hole into the board. There is a simple, soft door stop attached to the upper, back point so it rests more stably against the wall. Have fun!
