New Years Eve Glitz and Glam Table

Is everyone ready for your New Years celebrations?
Well, my table is set and ready to go!

I hope that you can find some inspiration in
my Glitz and Glam inspired look.

I started with red chargers
and my white and silver china.

At the top of each plate I place a mini top hat

embellished with a pearl and rinestnoe brouch.

Upon each plate I placed a printout of with the words to
Auld Lang Syne and a little silver bird.
I printed the song from Wedding Style Guide.

Do you have one of these mirrors around the house?

If so, put it down the center of the table like this.
It make the perfect backdrop for parties and shimmers
and shines when you place candles on top.

The centerpiece was inspired by these clocks!

These are actually tree ornaments!
What a fun tree that would make for new years!
I attached them to my candle holders and let them hang.

I added some candles and and some white Christmas balls
to complete the mirror runner.

I plan to use my labels for place settings and

through out the table.

I hope each and everyone of you have the best year in 2011!

DIY Champagne Markers

So, I was trying to come up with a unique idea for the age old

champagne glass charm.

This is what I came up with.

Countdown to New Years!

You know....10....9....8....7....

If you are on a budget after the holidays

this is the perfect DIY project for your New Years parties!
And the best thing is that I didn't spend a dime!

These are plastic champagne glasses

that I had left over from a child's birthday party.

You could use these on glass as well.

You would just need a few dots of

low heat hot glue on the bottom of the glass.

Do not over do the glue though!

I would just use 2 or 3 dots of glue.

Then it peels off nice and easy when you are finished.

What do you need?

1. Pattern scrapbook paper

2. Solid colored paper

3. Champagne glasses

4. Numbered stickers

What do you do?

1. Using the bottom of the glass as your template

draw a circle around the bottom of the glass

onto your patterned paper

3. Cut out the circles

(you will get 12 circle from a 8 1/2 x 11 sheet)

4. Cut circles on solid paper with

a 1 7/16" hole punch

5. Attach the numbered stickers

on each solid circle punch.

6. Glue the solid circle to the right

outside edge of the patterned paper.

7. Place the circle inside the bottom of the

champagne glass.

Note: If using a plastic champagne glass

the paper fits right inside without glue.

If you are using glass you will need glue

as stated above.
