Ringing in  the New Year…

So…I picked up a few goodies  to make this NYE….Extra Festive…

And you can too…

There is still  time..

First…pick out  the perfect little tray for display…

Grab a few Prerequisite Party Poppers….

…and tuck the into a pretty glass compote…

Grab a few sparklers  from your favorite Party Store  (May have to search the

Wedding section this time of year!)

With a little effort…

you can dress up  the typical NYE Party Hat…

I ‘punched’  these beauties…

from ‘Shabby Chic’  French Blue Damask paper….

Added ribbon poms

And…rhinestones...

…For extra bling…

…If your girlfriends are ‘clever’…

They might enjoy…

…adding the finishing touches…

themselves!

Best to do this before...you pour too much champagne…

And you might want to included…

‘readers!’

Tuck in a few noise  makers…

And you’ll be all set…

to Ring in the New Year...

In Style…

When the ‘ball drops’ in Times Square…

The clock…strikes Midnight…

And we reflect…

On another  year…that has all too  quickly…

gone by…

Before  launching into one more  rousing chorus

of…

Auld Lang Syne…

Wishing you…an Inspired  2011!

Ciao & Happy New Year!
