One Good Cocktail Away ~ From Being Our Best Selves

The grumpy neighbor, the shy new coworker, the cousin who never talks at holidays: each one has softened at her counter by the time the first glass is half gone. It is not the alcohol. It is being handed something made with care and a twist cut just for you. She has watched it work a hundred times.

• Who Believes It: The host who has fixed more moods with a shaker than a therapist with a couch.
• The Moment: Two strangers clinking glasses and leaving as friends.
• Gift Angle: For the one who knows a well-built drink is an act of kindness.

Cocktail Threads made this round ornament for the tree that stands beside the bar cart. Pick ceramic at 3 inches or aluminum at 3.6 inches, and it arrives with its hanging string. A wipe with a damp cloth keeps it ready for the next round.
