I’ll be honest. \u00a0New Year’s Eve is really all about the food and games.<\/strong> \u00a0Am I right?! \u00a0At the same time, if we are going to be home, I love adding a few easy New Year’s Eve decor touches around our home for some fun festivity!<\/p>\n Sometimes we still have Christmas decor up and sometimes we are partway done with the “taking down and putting away” job. \u00a0Usually, I’ve transitioned most of our home to a very simple, clean, cozy style for winter decor.<\/strong> \u00a0Since we start back to school so quickly after the New Year, I like to have everything as calm and ready on the Homefront as possible!<\/p>\n Well, as ready as one can be after multiple (and wonderful!) family events, holiday gatherings, traveling, and too many late nights. \u00a0Haha!<\/p>\n Regardless, you’ll never find really fancy or complicated New Year’s Eve decor around our home. \u00a0You\u00a0definitely<\/em> won’t find anything that took a long time!<\/strong> \u00a0But, since we will be around home this year, I am planning a few fun little things and thought I’d round up some easy ideas in case you want to add some simple, festive touches too!<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/robynsfrenchnest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Table-with-clock–scaled.jpg” title_text=”Table with clock” admin_label=”IMG table with clock”

” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The most traditional New Year’s Eve decor ideas seem to incorporate gold and silver, with touches of black and white. \u00a0Since our home is has neutral decor anyway, it is easy for me to add brass and metallic elements.<\/strong> \u00a0Paired with white and winter greenery, it’s a classic look that is easy to decorate with.<\/p>\n Look around your home for metals that you can mix together for your decor. \u00a0Even if you pull a few accessories for other rooms to create a centerpiece or vignette on a coffee table, it can give you quick and easy New Year’s Eve decor ideas without spending a lot.<\/p>\n At the same time, it won’t take you long and then you can put everything back where it goes. \u00a0I often “borrow” decor from other rooms for specialty events like birthdays or short holidays, like New Year’s Eve.<\/p>\n You can’t go wrong with black, white, gold, silver, and other mixed metals for easy New Year’s Eve decorating!<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image

width=”70%” module_alignment=”center” max_height=”750px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text admin_label=”how can I make NYE special? how can I celebrate NYE 2022 at home?” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n For me, this has depended greatly on the season of life we are in. \u00a0When our children were babies and preschoolers, the best kind of New Year’s Eve was putting them to bed at a decent time, waiting to watch the ball drop in Times Square on the TV, and going to bed ourselves!<\/p>\n As a teenager, though, I remember how fun New Year’s Eve was to stay up way past midnight, playing games, watching movies, and hanging out (safely at home) with our friends and family.<\/p>\n Since my own children are heading into those years themselves, I imagine my own New Year’s Eve nights are going to get later and later.<\/strong> \u00a0Haha! \u00a0However, it will be fun to help them have those same fun memories.<\/p>\n While some people may choose to go out on New Year’s Eve, I’ve always found it fun and relaxing to stay close to home, safely tucked in with close friends or family, and enjoy a more casual style of celebrating. \u00a0However, there are, of course, many ways to enjoy this fun holiday! \u00a0These are just a few things we, personally, enjoy:<\/p>\n Most of all, for us it is special to just spend time with those we are close to, whether it be family or friends. \u00a0The people and fun time together is the best part of all!<\/strong><\/p>\n

from a Christmas\/winter style into a casual party space.<\/p>\n If you have some extra time, create a simple DIY banner. \u00a0Or, these inexpensive glittery banners will quickly do the trick too:<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”2. party hats and accessories” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n You can’t go wrong by sprinkling in a few fun accessories into your decor. \u00a0Since the people are what makes New Year’s Eve the most special, provide some fun ways for them to accessorize for the evening!<\/p>\n I love setting around a few simple party accessories like hats, headbands, and silly glasses.\u00a0Plus, they are perfect for quick photo opportunities too!<\/strong><\/p>\n I also try to buy accessories that do NOT<\/strong> have the year on them. \u00a0That way, we can keep the extra for future years or reuse things that are in good condition.<\/p>\n Here are a few favorites:<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/robynsfrenchnest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Party-hats-scaled.jpg” title_text=”Party hats” admin_label=”IMG party hats”

_builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Since easy New Year’s Eve decor ideas only need to last for one night, balloons make a great option. \u00a0At the same time, they are budget-friendly and festive!<\/strong> \u00a0Whether you add a few simple balloons or install a whole decor kit, balloons can add a really fun touch to your New Year’s Eve celebration.<\/p>\n I also love that balloons can still look so classy, especially when mixed with pretty neutrals.<\/p>\n Here are a few balloon ideas:<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”4. battery candles” _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n You all know how much I love my battery-operated candles! \u00a0They are perfect for New Year’s Eve, too, because the cozy glow against the reflection of gold and silver looks so pretty. \u00a0Plus, you can enjoy the cozy glow ALL NIGHT, safely and easily, with battery-operated candles.<\/p>\n I add them to my tablescape, mantel, coffee table, side tables, and around our outdoor spaces too. \u00a0Here are my favorites that I’m using this year:<\/p>\n I literally have them all around our home, indoors and outdoors<\/strong>, and the cozy glow feels magical. \u00a0I will definitely be leaving them out through January for those long, winter evenings too.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/robynsfrenchnest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Candles-in-trough–scaled.jpg” title_text=”Candles in trough” url=”https:\/\/amzn.to\/3uN1diV”

are just\u00a0always<\/em> a great idea, right?!<\/strong> \u00a0I use them throughout the Christmas season along with regular Christmas lights. \u00a0However, when the Christmas lights get put away, I still leave out the fairy lights for some cozy glow during the winter months.<\/p>\n I love that mine are on timers and just add a really soft glow throughout the rooms. \u00a0They definitely add a cozy ambiance and for a New Year’s Eve party, would add to the pretty, festive look. \u00a0Fairy lights look especially pretty when they are reflecting off of the golds and silvers you may be using for your easy New Year’s Eve decor ideas too!<\/p>\n Here are some great options that I use:<\/p>\n Tuck them around a coffee table vignette, work them through greenery on the mantel, or weave them throughout your centerpiece for some festive and cozy decor. \u00a0Best of all, they are super easy to decorate with!<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/robynsfrenchnest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Fairy-lights-scaled.jpg” title_text=”Fairy lights” url=”https:\/\/amzn.to\/3j1QTRP” url_new_window=”on” admin_label=”IMG fairy

_builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Even if you put away your Christmas decor before New Year’s Eve, I highly recommend leaving out at least a little bit of winter greenery. \u00a0An undecorated Christmas tree could be the perfect backdrop for snow and gold New Year’s decoration.<\/strong> \u00a0If you want something a bit more simple, tuck some evergreen or faux cedar into vignettes around your home. \u00a0I like to use a winter pine garland down the center of my table!<\/p>\n Most of my winter greenery has been sold out for quite awhile now, but here are a few pieces I can definitely recommend:<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/robynsfrenchnest.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/Close-up-of-greenery-scaled.jpg” title_text=”Close up of greenery” url=”https:\/\/rstyle.me\/+amayoWNSeI3NeCbO9y4qdQ”

global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n This is a perfect time to pull out the Christmas colors and add different neutral shades to your pillows and throw blankets. \u00a0These neutrals help create that pretty winter color palette and blend with the metallics for New Year’s Eve. \u00a0At the same time, they add a lot of pretty and cozy texture.<\/strong> \u00a0What a perfect way to invite a hot cocoa and movie night or curl up and watch the ball drop at midnight!<\/p>\n Here are a few of my cozy, soft favorites:<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image

_builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n For super quick and easy New Year’s Eve decor that will look elegant and classy, set up some brass candlesticks with battery-operated taper candles. \u00a0Not only are they cozy and add pretty ambiance, but they also reflect against the metallic New Year’s decor<\/strong> for a really elegant and festive look.<\/p>\n Here are a few ways I like to use brass candlesticks:<\/p>\n Most of my brass candlesticks are thrifted. \u00a0However, they are getting harder to find and even more expensive at thrift shops. \u00a0You can get groupings of candlesticks online too and here are some brass candlesticks available:<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image

then tuck them around vignettes, on your mantel, and even make them part of a table centerpiece! \u00a0You could even hang clock faces on your Christmas tree!<\/p>\n I always watch for pretty clock faces when I’m out hunting for vintage goodies.<\/strong> \u00a0The old, round, vintage table clocks are also a favorite and they are so fun to decorate with. \u00a0Keep an eye out at thrift stores, antique malls, and flea markets for some good deals that you can add to your New Year’s decor collection!<\/p>\n Here are some vintage ones I rounded up online and I love them all:<\/p>\nWhat colors
