New Year’s Eve Feast or an ordinary late dinner with many dishes? In order not to be confused, we recommend taking care of the festive table decoration. You don’t have to serve it with dozens of cutlery and plates to show the exclusivity of the moment. We share delightful table design ideas that everyone can implement.
1. Cutlery ribbons
Tie a knife, fork and spoon, intended for a guest, with shiny ribbon, and the perception of the feast instantly changes for the better. A couple of balls next to the plate – and the table already looks festive.
2. Gold and silver
Decorating a New Year’s table is a great reason to combine gold and silver. If the cutlery is made of silver-colored metal, then use a gold decor, and vice versa.
3. Christmas balls instead of napkin rings
Textile napkins tied with a ribbon with a Christmas ball look simple, but elegant. After all, napkin rings, although they are a classic serving option, are not found in every home..
4. Shiny background
Even the most ordinary cutlery and crockery are transformed if they are placed not on a tablecloth, but on a strip of foil lying in the central part of the table. Foil can be replaced with decorative paper used in floristry.
5. Christmas tree sticks
To prevent the decorative arrangement of coniferous branches from looking lonely, support it with a similar plate decoration. This will make the table look holistic..
6. Snow-covered table
Plain paper snowflakes, which even a child can cut, can become the centerpiece of the New Year’s table decoration. If the dishes are glass, use them as a stand for it..
7. Glasses – upside down
Several glasses or glasses are an integral part of even the simplest New Year’s table setting. Turn one over and place it on a plate. Use the bottom or leg as a candle holder.
8. There is never too much silver
White and silver Christmas decorations can be found in almost every home, like stainless steel cutlery. All together form a memorable festive table decoration. To make the composition look harmonious, add tall elements to it, for example, a silver herringbone.
9. Greens in metal
Coniferous branches or tarragon in metal glasses will enliven the restrained design of the New Year’s table. If no glasses were found, use cans that have been peeled from labels. Another option is to line the inside of the glass beakers with foil..
10. Original eclectic
A democratic option for decorating a New Year’s table is to use dishes and appliances from different sets. Feel free to combine metal, ceramics and glass. The more items that differ in design are on the New Year’s table, the better.
11.From the tree to the table
White and blue are some of the most «winter» colors that most people associate with the New Year holidays. A few blue balls, decorative beads, cones with silver sparkles – and the festive table setting is ready.
12. Warmth corner in cold winter
The design of the New Year’s table looks original, in which golden and brown shades prevail. For a dramatic effect, combine sophisticated shiny elements with those that are rough and natural in color. For example, metal candlesticks with pine cones or dry branches.
13. New Year’s bouquet of paper
Who said that paper napkins or paper should not be on the festive table? From them you can make an unusual bouquet for each invited guest. Roll a napkin or paper into a cone and fill it with cute little things that the guest can take with them.
14. Cozy mugs instead of glasses
You can make your home-style feast cozy by replacing the largest glasses with bright circles. You can also fill them with festive tinsel..
15. Islet of summer in winter
There are no rules that only certain colors should be used to decorate the New Year’s table. Just laying a bright multi-colored tablecloth on the table will create an upbeat mood for all guests. After all, in winter we all lack color variety so much..
16. An edible surprise for the guest
If there are no napkin rings at home, then they can be replaced with decorative twine. And as a decoration, do not use any hard cookies that do not crumble..
17. Country style
It is unlikely that it will not be difficult for a city dweller to find straw. But in shops for floristry or hand-made there is its decorative counterpart. Remember to put candles in glass glasses.
18. Fur luxury
Use cuts of faux fur instead of napkins on plates, and a festive atmosphere at the table is guaranteed. The ideal option is to complement the fur with various rustic decor.
We have already taken care of creating a festive mood among the invited guests. Now it will be superfluous to prepare a small surprise for each of them, at least new year card.
