You can enjoy these technicolor drink stirrers in a wide variety of drinks you make. To make these fun, geometric drink stirrers, begin by collecting various sized wooden cubes from your local craft store. Then paint each side of the cubes a different color using acrylic paint to give the cubes more of a 3D art deco look. Add a tiny hole to the bottom of the cube using a tiny drill bit and stick a [bamboo skewer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-cayenne-pepper) into the hole. Pop these rainbow stirrers into your [cocktails and juices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/complete-bar-set) for a fun party look. You can enjoy these technicolor drink stirrers in a wide variety of homemade drinks. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.6/10 - Popularity: 8% | Activity: 2% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **DIY Entertainment:** Opportunity for businesses to provide DIY kits and materials for consumers to create their own entertainment at home. - **Geometric Art Deco:** Potential for businesses to incorporate geometric art deco designs into various products and industries. - **Colorful Cocktails:** Opportunity to create and market colorful cocktails and beverages for a visually appealing and fun drinking experience. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Craft Supply:** Craft stores can provide a wide range of supplies like wooden cubes, acrylic paint, and drill bits to cater to the demand for DIY projects. - **Hospitality:** Bars, restaurants, and event venues can attract customers by incorporating fun and visually appealing drink stirrers into their beverage offerings. - **Beverage Manufacturing:** Beverage companies can develop and market colorful cocktails and beverages that enhance the drinking experience with vibrant colors and unique stirrers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Bitters-Infused Cocktail Cubes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocktail-cubes.md) - [Cubed Cocktail Mixers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mixicles.md) - [Lilac Glassware Cocktail Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stirred-set.md) - [Stylish Ice Molds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocktail-ice-sets.md) - [Beverage-Enhancing Sugar Cubes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handcrafted-sugar-cube.md) - [Cinnamon Sugar Stir Sticks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinnamon-swizzle-sticks.md) - [Cubed Cocktail Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/teaspressa-classic-cocktail-kit.md) - [Pre-Infused Ice Cubes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/infused-ice-cube.md) - [Home Mixology Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/complete-bar-set.md)
