While Christmas may be over, the holidays are anything but! Just as you are getting rid of the Christmas wrappings and bows and boxes, it is time to think about how to decorate your home to celebrate the arrival of the New Year.
You don't have to get rid of all your Christmas décor, just make a few changes, and add some touches of glitter and glamour for your New Year festivities.
Here are some simple tips & tricks:
- Remove all the red or green candles and replace them with silver or gold candles.
- Tie silver or gold bows on candlesticks.
- Remove red or Christmas design ribbons from garlands, railings, mirrors, swags, or anywhere else and replace them with silver or gold ones
-Place silver or gold pillar candles on silver plates or platters.
- Get out any white or clear dishes you might have. If you have to buy dishes for the party, consider inexpensive disposable tableware.
- Use silver serving pieces for the party.
- Use table linens in white, black, silver, or gold.
- Tie napkins in sparkling wired silver or gold twists or ribbons.
-sparkly and festive centerpieces are great vocal points, but if you are planning a sit down dinner, avoid having tall centerpieces.
and although silver and gold are festive colors and thus suitable for New Years celebration, there are other great colors you can use as well.

I really like this more modern take on New Years decor. Not a lot of sparkle, but very stylish and creative.
You can achieve the festive mood with both subtle & simple and sparkly and elaborate.
I really love the hanging clock collection!
Blue and gold is very festive color scheme.....or go with pink, silver and clear glass
I love how the clock/time scheme is incorporated throughout the space
simple clear bottle candleholders and gold/silver ornaments in a glass can create a lovely atmospehere
all clear glass, but in various scale creates a lovely centerpiece
Fun idea of hand made popcorn containers from festive paper
Make the centerpiece an interesting vocal point
Happy New Year!
