I'm Already Planning My New Year's Eve Tablescape — 9 Stylish Finds That Work For Christmas, Too
It's never too early to start planning how you'll ring in the new year, and these stylish buys will save you time (and money)
Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself, but you bet I'm already planning the sparkly details of ringing in the new year. Of course, New Year's Eve celebrations are often about watching the ball drop, but starting the night with a stylish dinner party or soirée is the perfect way to set the scene. So, if you're planning on playing host this year, you're going to need the hottest New Year's Eve decorations, and I've found nine of them.
Styling your space for Christmas is likely still underway, but the good news is, if you plan well, many of those pieces can inspire your New Year's Eve decorating ideas, too. Things like silver plate chargers, glittering gold candle sticks, and chic coupe glasses don't need a specific holiday to be enjoyed, after all.
So do yourself a favor, and stock up on stylish pieces that will see you through to the new year (and beyond!) A few are even on sale, so it's really a win-win right now. The new year is right around the corner, and 2025 is going to be all about table settings that start conversations and dazzle their dinner guests, so why not use this opportunity to start the new year on a sparkling note? Here's what I'm shopping.
