While some people couldn’t care less about how New Year’s Eve goes, many people will decorate their homes to the nines and invite friends for a party. If you belong to the second category, we’re glad to tell you that there are several DIY tips for you to decorate your home for a true New Year’s Eve party. We’ve gathered five tips to help you transform your home into a sparkly party venue.
Metallic Silver Balloons
From outfits to drinks, everything is always sparkly on New Year’s Eve, and your decoration should also key into that. Instead of regular balloons, you could decorate your space with metallic balloons.
All you need to do is get metallic balloons in different shapes and attach sticky pom-pom bows beneath each one. Then, attach wide satin ribbons to the balloons for a festive and colorful decoration.
Antique Candleholders
Arranging ancient-looking metallic candle holders and flower vases on a side table adds to the party vibe in the room. However, the good thing is that you don’t need to have antique candle holders to pull this off.
Gather some clear vases and clean them, then cover their exteriors with paper. Spray each container with water before spraying it with mirror paint to give it a spotted, metallic vase look. While this won’t cover the glow of the candle, it’ll add a metallic shadow.
Watercolor Party Hats
Of course, party hats remind us of the many birthday parties we attended as kids, but they also add party vibes to any gathering. Party hats are essential at a New Year’s gathering.
You can easily make New Year’s Eve hats with cardboard, watercolor, and some gold paper strips. Write ‘2024’ on each hat with a calligraphy pen for the ultimate New Year touch. Then arrange the hats on a side table- they can also serve as table decor!
DIY Champagne Tower
Champagne is the season’s drink, so incorporating it into your party decoration will always be valid. You can make a champagne tower that will turn your home into a picturesque New Year’s Eve party location.
Bring out all your champagne glasses and carefully arrange them to make a tower. Aside from the aesthetics, this tower allows easy distribution of champagne to your guests.
Confetti Party Favors
What says ‘we’re celebrating’ better than a shower of confetti? You can excitingly incorporate confetti by involving your guests in the making process. All you need are test tubes, strands of metallic confetti, and gift tags.
Simply fill each test tube with confetti and cork– then tie Happy New Year gift tags to each one. As the countdown starts, give one to each guest- then everyone throws them in the air once it strikes midnight!
