Have A Male X-Mas, Week 2 (English)

This week's edition of Have A Male X-Mas is a double-feature. By the way, do you enjoy this as much as I do?! For the German version of the entry, scroll down a bit. Here we go.

Remember, even no basics available.

I was warned. In a male single kitchen, there is no kitchen scale, no eggs, no oat meal and neither are there thousand other things. You can find pre-cut baking paper, about 25 different sorts of tea and five bottles of olive oil, which are a left-over from some tool time.
In this kitchen, DS and I were invited to do some baking and turning the whole place upside down. The result were yummie cupcakes and lots of cookies. Not as male as I thought they'd be, but nevertheless delicious and that's what it's all about, right?


For decoration crafts, it took some time to figure out what to do. It is a German tradition to light a candle on the four Sundays before Christmas, but it had to look cool and male.
I bought a light woollen material and pressed the seams. I then easily fixed them with fabric glue. Done. I didn't do anything about the edges, cause I liked that fringed look. I would have loved to add some ribbon with a "ho ho ho" print, but couldn't find some. That's why I went with the red and white squares.
Additionally, there are four candle holders in dark brown and light gold. There has to be some glitter on X-Mas, right? Like it?
