Create a fun milk and cookie bar with this adorable Rudolph’s Milk and Cookie Co. free Christmas printable. Perfect for Christmas parties, movie nights, or any sweet Christmas display!
Milk and Cookie Bar
Even in our more formal dining room, I still like to add a little bit of Christmas whimsy! If you’ve been following along here for a while you know that I always like to do a mini beverage bar in the corner of our dining room. Each year, I try to come up with something a little bit different and this year I thought I’d do a fun milk and cookie bar. I think it’s so cute!
You could always expand this idea for Christmas parties but this little corner works great as a small little cookie bar for every day use. It’s the perfect place to grab a Christmas treat for those Hallmark movie marathons. lol!
If you do Elf on the Shelf with your kids, you could probably do a few fun elf tricks with this as well. My kids are sadly passed that stage but they still love a good Christmas cookie and Christmas movie night. Of course, the printable can always be used on its own too for your Christmas kitchen or dining room decor. There are so many different ways you can dress it up. I’d love to see if you use it!

How to Create a Milk and Cookie Bar
Besides needing the obvious milk and cookies, here are a few other items that you can use in your milk and cookie bar…
- small Christmas plates
- Christmas napkins
- mugs, cups, or small glass jars for the milk {these Santa mugs are SO cute!}
- colorful paper straws
- glass jar or other milk jug
- other drinks such as chocolate milk or egg nog {I just tried a candy cane egg nog that was SO good!}
- little Christmas candies or chocolates
- fairy lights {make sure you get ones with an automatic on/off timer!}
- Christmas decor items

If you’re looking for Christmas cookie recipes, try these Christmas snowball cookies or holiday 7 layer bars!
You can probably shop your house to find everything you need. But if you’re looking to add a new item or two, I’ve put together some really cute Christmas pieces that would be perfect for this at the end of the post. All of the items that I used were pieces that we already had on hand {from at least a few years ago} so I don’t have any current links to the products.
For the printable, I just used some red washi tape to attach it to a wood cutting board that we had. You could use a photo frame or clipboard to display the print or even mount it to a canvas and frame it like I did here.
Cute Christmas Cookie Jars
I’m kind of obsessed with cookie jars. Remember that you can use them for storing lots of items other than cookies too! Fill them with seasonal towels, tea bags, candies, or any other little items that you want to be out of sight but easily accessible. Here are some of my favorite Christmas cookie jars that I’ve found…
Christmas Plates and Mugs
I love pulling out our special Christmas plates and mugs each holiday season. Somehow they just make everything taste better and they always bring back memories of Christmas’ past. I bought the boys those Santa mugs about 7 years ago now and we use them every year for Christmas movie nights. They were just inexpensive Walmart finds, but they’re one of my favorites! Here are a few other cute mugs and plates…

This printable is formatted to a 8×10 size. If you’re printing to another photo size, make sure that there isn’t anything being cut off. For printing at home, there is usually a “fit to size” button {or something similar} that you can click so the print will automatically be adjusted to fit your printing size.

I’m so enjoying looking at your Christmas decor. I’m so inspired to go find some cute Christmas items and put together an adorable vignette like this. Love the way you put everything together. Btw, maybe you’ve already posted about this and I haven’t seen it yet, but I really hope you do a post about how you store all of this gorgeous stuff after Christmas is over!
