Recycle Christmas Decorations For the New Year

Don't throw away that wreath just yet. Using the decorations you already have displayed, make a few simple changes to jazz things up for the New Year. Here are a few ideas to get you started.



Spray paint or flock your greenery white for a more Winter like theme or use silver and gold paints for a more glam look.
  
24" Flocked American Pine Artificial Wreath with Berries & Pine Cones


Change out your red berries with Glittery Silver Berries or trendy Gold Berries

Replace red and green bows with black and white for a formal theme or sparkling gold and silvers.

Attach party poppers or noise makers for a little originality. 

Do the same things with your Christmas tree and it becomes a New Years tree. 

Replace your colored lights with small white lights, preferably energy efficient ones. Try Solar Lights for outdoor garden areas.

Put away your Christmas themed decorations but leave out all your clear glass, blue, silver, gold  and white decorations.

Replace your centerpiece with one filled with whites and blacks with silver and gold accents or add Diamond Table Confetti to a clear vase of themed flowers.




Themed Tooth Picks for your appetizers is an inexpensive touch to a New Years Party.



Welcome your guests with small party favors. Black and Silver Mardi Gras Bead Necklaces are fun to hand out to guest along with top hats and noise makers. If you're having a small party it is fairly inexpensive to purchase a 2013 Party Box.

Don't forget your powder room. Use white hand towels and tie with gold ribbon for a quick accent.

Now you can use your extra time to think about those darn resolutions.
