I know we are all busy with our last minute shopping but New Year's Eve is also right around the corner. If you are having a party, here are some ideas for favors and decorations.
If you are having a party in a dark space, these flashing, light up ice cubes are so much fun for cocktails. A few years back my friends and I hosted a NYE party and I ordered the light up champagne glasses - if you have a lot of people in a dark room, they look very cool! Have a table ready with these glasses lined up, just before midnight fill them up with champagne and turn on the flashing lights. These are available from flashingblinkylights.com - if you want anything that lights up, check out this site.
If you are buying for a big party, visit www.shindigz.com, I typically find much better deals versus going to the local party store. I love this 80's-ish party kit, they offer party hats in this theme as well, which I love! If you go this route, I think you should be sure to order some glow in the dark necklaces to go along with the 80's theme.
Ask your guests to dress in black and then order sequin masks to add a splash of color. After a few cocktails people will be wearing them! $29.99 for a package of 12. Put them around on tables or hang some string across a room and clip them on to use these as decorations as well.
I love this Happy New Year banner, it's unique and I love the simplistic feel. If you are going with black & white decorations, I think this is a must have! The banner is available on etsy for $22.
Instead of the standard noise makers, order these vintage ones, $6 for a set of four.
For favors, how about these "Quickits" available on etsy, each favor includes: champagne "bubbles", Hershey kisses, breath mints (very important if there is mistletoe around!), lip balm, streamers, NYE confetti. Each kit costs $9 and you can choose your color ribbon.
