New Year Glitter Crafts

New Year's Eve always makes me think about glitter. Sometimes Hubby and I will go to a low-key New Years party with friends, but we're never at a glitter-showering bash at midnight. I guess all of the magic and sparkle of the ball drop, fireworks, and the hope of a wonderful new year gets me in the glitter spirit.

 

I don't decorate for the New Year...in fact, we leave our Christmas decorations out for a couple of weeks after Christmas. But in case you do, and you need some Glittery Inspiration...here are a few little crafts that you can whip up quickly and *sparkly* in time for a new years gathering.

 

Whether it's a champagne toast at midnight, or sweet tea before bed, everything will taste better in a sparkly glass! Living Locurto shows you how with.....nail polish!

 

 

 

I love candles, and often change them for new seasons to match our décor. How precious are these glitter accented candles from A Pumpin and a Princess?

 

 

Copy Craft show us how to make these sweet little napkins, perfect for finishing off your holiday table.

 

 

If you're throwing a New Year's bash and need some quick décor to throw on your mantle, doorways, or light fixtures...how about a glitter garland?

 

The Shabby Creek Cottage has a cute and easy one.

 

 

 

How cute would it be at midnight for everyone to reach into their own glitter vial for a shower of sparkles to ring in the new year? Emmalou shares a quick tutorial on making glitter vial necklaces.

(I just wouldn't want to be around for the clean up!)

 

 

Why just decorate your house? Decorate yourself in glitter too.

Sweet Verbena shows how she turned boring flats into fabulous shoes. I tried this last year... but mine was a little bit of a craft fail.

 

 

You can pretty up your walls with these sweet little frames from White House Black Shutters.

Love the ombre effect!!

 

 

Domestic Charm shows you how to create beautiful and easy glitter balloons. How cute would a balloon drop of THESE be at midnight??

 

 

 

Paper Pony shows us how to make these adorable glitter cake toppers. You could make them any shape for any occasion!

 

 

 

 I am obsessed with this tutorial from A Berry Sweet Life on making glitter letters. I will be trying it out ASAP to glitterize some things in my life!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I hope you have a fun and sparkly new year!
