This year I am thinking of having a New Year's Eve Party at my house. Here are a few decor ideas and tips I would like to share with you.
The decor should be glamorous. Metallics like gold or silver, dusty pinks and/or black are great picks. A Happy New Year Banner is a must-have for me. This Happy New Year 2013 banner decoration is made by CowCountryCreations.
Since you want to take as many photos as possible, make sure you get props like this large Gold Bokeh GLITTER HOLIDAY Vinyl Photo Backdrop by SwankyPrints or the Perfect Holiday Photo Props Set of 6 Gold by PAPERandPANCAKES.
The menu can kept simple by serving finger food that can be prepared ahead. If you are looking for recipes, this is the book I have and recommend.
Having a dessert buffet is an great idea. You can skip baking and order French Macarons and cookies made by local bakeries or ETSY sellers. My favorite are: Pink and Gold Brush Embroidered Cookies by SweetAmbs and French Macarons by LeBonbonLA. If you want, you can offer small party favors and package them in glamorous gold boxes from bluechinastudio.
Having a signature cocktail is a great idea. However, if you want to keep it simple, having wine and champagne is sufficient. {Vintage Champagen Flutes Fine Art Print by KittyLWren}
