I love this warm and cozy inspiration pic from Merry Monday #263 - hot cocoa, anyone?
So, OF COURSE I used Hug in a Mug - SO many ways to do up our cozy mugs there, and I didn't even use all the options I had, lol. I went with a color palette inspired by the Quilted Christmas DSP - so cheery! Looking at all these dancing mugs reminds me of the first fancy hot chocolate I ever had: I used to work at a mall when I was in high school, and one day a Gloria Jean Coffee Bean opened across the hall from us. I wasn't a coffee drinker yet, but the manager made me a hot chocolate when we went to visit their opening day, with the steamed milk on the espresso machine and everything, so dramatic, I had never seen that before. Then she PUT FRESH WHIPPED CREAM ON TOP! I was completely smitten, lol. They had different mugs they would let us use instead of disposable cups since we were right across the way. Good times! Alas, Orange Julius lost my business that year!
