Today I'm sharing New Year's Eve Table Decorations.

New Year's Eve Table Decorations

For my celebration, I've put together a beautiful New Year's Eve tablescape. Since it's New Years I added lots of glam -with mirrors, gold, silver, and candle light. One of my very favourite ways to ring in the New Year is at an elegant dinner party. Dress up, cook, order take-out, or ask everyone to bring a dish and avoid the crowds with a beautiful celebration in your own home. And if you're at the kids stage of life, put them to bed -and your friends kids in the spare room, and still enjoy your night.

Mirrored Ball Disco Centre Piece

My table started with the mirrored disco balls down the centre. I collected large and small and medium sized mirrored balls.  Lots are from dollar stores, some are from the Christmas decoration section of other stores.  Basically you can't have too many, the more the merrier and the more size variation the better.  These weren't expensive, most packages were just a few dollars and they have so much impact!

I used a silver table runner under the mirrored balls, and then added in some candles, and some giant gold confetti. I also had a few strands of mirrored garland that I wove in.

For the rest of the table, I used more silver and gold.

The chargers are silver coloured metal, and then I used my white everyday dishes.  The gold cutlery is perfect for a little New Year's Eve drama, especially with the incredible glasses.

I love these gorgeous  champagne flutes and tumblers.  Here I mixed and matched them, but they each come with 8 in a set, and every glass has a slightly different gold design on them.  You could assign one design per person, and not worry about anyone mixing up their glasses all night

The table sparkles from all the mirrors, glass, gold and silver.

It's always nice to have something special at each persons place setting, so everyone has a delicious homemade vanilla cupcake, complete with gold sprinkles waiting for them!

Over on the buffet, I wanted to add some New Year's Eve inspired decor too.

The balloons help set the New Year's feel, and they were just picked up at the dollar store.  The number balloons are filled with air and then tied up on a string so they're super convenient for a party -love them!

And under the numbers, a collection of clocks.  These are from around my house and a few from the thrift store -and they really are the perfect little New Year's Eve decor.

On the other side, candles for the perfect New Year's Eve glow.  I've shared these before - see how I made the paint dipped brass candlestick holders here.

    How lovely!!! I simply adore your buffalo check wall with the 2018 balloons on it, so festive and the perfect contrast. AND those candle sticks... I must search for those, I just LOVE the way they are displayed on the mechanics chest. All of your details are perfection and I of course love the cupcake detail. 😉

    The disco balls are genius and I love the way they are picked up in the napkin pattern. The glasses are lovely, as are all the candle holders. It all looks so beautiful and inviting!
