Keeping beverages cold at a gathering can be a challenge, especially if you're short on refrigerator space. For canned drinks, fill items you have around the yard, such as buckets, terra-cotta pots, or a wheelbarrow, with ice and use as coolers. (Be sure to clean thoroughly first.) To chill bottles, make individual decorative coolers following these instructions.
Nicely Iced Supplies
- An empty 3-liter clear plastic soft drink bottle or other large, wide plastic container
- An empty 750-milliliter wine bottle, air dried
- Plastic wrap
- Heavy-duty tape
- Items to freeze: fresh flowers, small seashells, sliced citrus fruit, summer berries, fresh herbs, or other small items that complement your party's decor (The items will need to fit between the plastic container and the empty wine bottle.)
- Wooden skewers
- Funnel
- Distilled water (to prevent cloudiness)
- Scissors
