10 fun & easy New Year’s Eve ideas
Does New Year’s Eve sneak up on anyone else? It comes so quickly after Christmas, that it seems we don’t ever quite get out of party mode!  It’s such a fun night, filled with friends, family, food, and at our house, football. But…here’s the deal.  Because it is so close to Christmas, I’m all about simple, simple, simple.  I like cute & fun ideas that are easy to execute and implement. I was on the hunt this week for New Year’s Eve ideas, and found several things that I loved, and thought I would pass them along to you!
Confetti Balloons by Ms. Twixt
How cute is this idea?! Â Add a paper hat to an inexpensive plastic headband, then decorate! You could decorate beforehand, or have it be a part of the party.
Countdown Balloons, Craftabilities
These balloons are an easy idea to make things fun all night long!
This is the same idea as the balloons, but you can use cute paper bags instead! Â Easy!
This is the easiest countdown of all, because all you need is construction paper!
Make cookies & milk a little fancier in plastic champagne glasses! So cute!  This is intended for kids, but since we don’t drink alcohol, I think it would be fun for the adults too!
Party Crackers, Moms & Munchkins
My kids love party crackers, and they’re definitely perfect for New Year’s Eve!
How adorable are these cups? Â And super easy too!
I love the idea of hanging a paper banner for all the guests to write their resolutions on. I think it would be fun to do it as a tablecloth too!
Glitter Ice Cubes, A Subtle Revelry
Yes, glitter ice cubes!! Â SO fun!
And our favorite New Year’s Eve tradition of all?
Banging pots & pans at midnight!
