The holidays are upon us — as is the holiday stress. There are parties to plan. Dishes to prep. Gifts to buy and wrap and give.
All of this joy and merriment, it turns out, takes work. Lots and lots of work. If you don’t have a team of bustling elves at your disposal, then one small thing that can help with that work is Mountain Valley Spring Water. You may be asking yourself, “Huh? Water?”
Please, allow us to explain.
First of all, Mountain Valley Spring Water isn’t merely water. Sourced from our protected spring which is located in the heart of the Ouachita Mountains of the Southern U.S., this is America’s best, tastiest and most award-winning bottled water poured into our iconic green-glass bottles for your refreshment — which is just one way Mountain Valley can assist with holiday cheer. A hydrated holiday host is a happy and high-functioning holiday host. And with water as crisply delicious as Mountain Valley, staying hydrated through all that shopping, cooking and card writing is simple.
But wait, there is much more Mountain Valley holiday magic to be had.
Our beautiful green-glass bottles make for magnificent centerpieces to your holiday bars and tables. They are lovely on their own and even lovelier crowned with a mini wreath, a frilly bow, or a touch of garland.
Planning a special mocktail bar for the booze-free drinkers at your holiday party? Set it with emerald bottles of Mountain Valley’s Sparkling and Sparkling Essence Spring Waters. Available in our signature Blackberry Pomegranate, White Peach and Key Lime Twist flavors, as well as original sparkling, these sparklers have no calories, no sugar and no sweeteners, just oodles of bubbles and loads of fizzy, juicy fun. Need some ideas for mocktail recipes? We have you covered here.
Once those stunning green-glass Mountain Valley bottles are empty, the last thing you want to do is toss them in the trash. Simply give them a rinse and they’ll be ready to spread even more holiday cheer — of the upcycled variety.
Glass bottles of Mountain Valley Spring Water make for lovely tapered candle holders. They’re also perfect holiday bud vases for sprigs of pine and winter berries.
Even better, if you have $25 and a few spare minutes, these green-glass bottles can be transformed into, well, just about anything. With a glass-cutting kit and some care, you can safely lop off the tops of your Mountain Valley glass bottles to create emerald-hued juice glasses or vases or planters or — take-your-pick.
Here are some more ideas:
- Cut several different lengths and sizes of bottles and create a cluster-style succulent garden
- Use one of our 1 liter glass bottles to plant a bushy asparagus fern or hearty English ivy
- Fill with water and sprout an avocado from the seed
- Plant with lucky bamboo
- Create a living mini-herb garden for the kitchen window
- Cut several shorter bottles and affix to plywood for moss rounds to hang facing out
- Fill with candle wax and a wick to make a Mountain Valley Spring Candle
These upcycled creations make for thoughtful DIY presents for your holiday party hosts. At your own holiday soiree, they can pull double duty — first as greenly festive party decor, and then, when things wrap up, your guests can take these pretty projects home as parting gifts.
If you don’t have time to cut bottles and trim plants, then you can go back to the basics and give the gift of refreshment in its prettiest (and most delicious) form. Bottles of Mountain Valley Spring Water make for tasteful and useful swag-bag fillers, and they are a refreshing way to bid bon voyage to your guests.
