| Elegant
white roses and hydrangeas, glittery stars and brass candlesticks are simple elements that work perfectly with the tablescape. |
Do
you get sentimental about the year ending? Somehow, the passing of another year
seems a little sad, but for me it’s ultimately overshadowed by the thoughts of
what the new year will bring.
To
celebrate the incoming new year, I love to set up a lovely table that celebrates
the passing of time.
Time
will definitely be on your side with a table set with festive clocks, glittery details and
mixed metals. That’s what it’s all about when decorating for New Year’s Eve!
Everyone
will want to ring in the New Year surrounded by opulence, and an upscale
end-of-the-year dinner party like this is so easy to put together when you
start with an amazing tablescape like this.
 |
| Setting
a table with a mix of our favorite metals, includes gold rimmed champagne glasses, silver chargers, copper lanterns and a glittery rose gold table runner. These fun clock plates are a cinch to make! |
Clear
glass dinner plates, silver chargers and a selection of pretty paper clock
faces are all you need to create this festive party idea.
Simply
layer the paper clock cutouts between glass plates and silver chargers.
 |
Don’t be
afraid to mix and match plates, glasses and other tableware.
It only adds to
the interest of the tablescape.
|
A
striking bouquet of white roses and hydrangeas prove to be the perfect focal
point for our dinner guests, while the cascade of glittery stars surrounding
the table reminds us of
the magic of midnight,
when the ball drops,
the
fireworks go off
and kisses are exchanged!
 |
It’s all in
the details, so finish of the year entertaining in style and
make sure to have
plenty of “midnight kisses” on hand for everyone
to indulge in some decadent
chocolate treats.
|
All
that glitters is not gold. Don’t stop at one metallic element for your table. For
this tablescape, I’ve selected a mix of gold, silver, copper and rose gold
accessories.
This combination of metals creates that opulent look everyone
loves on December 31st!
 |
| The
magic of midnight awaits each guest, but while they wait, they’ll enjoy a fun and festive New year’s eve table. |
Copper
lanterns and glitzy votives provide this table with just the right ambiance,
while vintage brass candlesticks and elegant white tapers create a luminant
backdrop.
