New Year is one of the most troublesome and exhausting holidays. The hustle and bustle begins on December 1st, when the cunning shopkeepers urge people to start shopping for gifts through discounts and sales. Christmas trees on the windows of markets, tinsel, garlands, the first snow - the mood is ready. Walk fantasy, cry wallet. What do all women think about on the morning of the 31st? First of all, about the festive table, so at noon it is laid out and ready for serving. These ideas will help you decorate the New Year's table.

Instructions
Step 1
Tablecloth. Traditionally, they use snow-white fabric, but the monotony is boring. This time, take a silk fabric with an expensive sheen. Even if you get it dirty, the effect will be spectacular. Buy silver, gold, scarlet fabric, for example, crepe satin. The canvas should cover the entire table and hang along the edges to the floor. Overlock the edges of the fabric. After setting the table, decorate the fabric, and for this you need a fishing line, a needle and metal beads to match the fabric. With a needle and a fishing line, make the stitches so as to visually "crumple" the fabric - you get something like a volumetric hook, which you will later decorate with a bead. Do this all over the sides of the tablecloth. You will have a gorgeous design.
Step 2
Tableware. For brightly colored tablecloths, use one-color tableware. White, red, black porcelain or glass would be appropriate in this case. But wine glasses, glasses, glasses can be decorated with sparkles, patterns, dusting.
Step 3
Napkins. Place a napkin on or under each plate. There is a huge selection of those on sale - both with a picture and without. In addition, napkins can be used to make a decoration, for example, a peacock sitting in a glass. To do this, use two napkins. Fold one and insert it into the glass like a tail, twist the cone from the other, fold the sharp edge - this will be the head, also insert it into the glass.
Step 4
On the table, sprinkle or stretch the threads with decorative beads. You can arrange small Christmas tree decorations such as bells, pine cones, boxes with bows, snowmen and angels. Place a small artificial tree or flowerpot in the center of the table, decorate with rain and confetti. If there is neither one, nor the other, use spruce branches - their aroma will fill the house with winter mood.
Step 5
Candles. Be careful with these items and place them in glasses or candlesticks. Gel candles complemented by small fun decor look great on the table. If the old grandmother's candlesticks are dusty on the cupboard at home (they are usually heavy), be sure to clean them and use them in the interior. Long thin candles tied with red ribbons will perfectly complement a decorated table, and children will love figurine-shaped candles.
Step 6
Let the cooked dishes become a marvelous decoration of the table. Salads can be turned into sunflowers by adding chips and olives, cut into halves or into an island with palm trees - string olives on a stick, fix the greens on top, stick the edible "tree" into the salad. Supplement cold snacks with figures cut from vegetables. Pieces of fruit can be skewered, and cocktails can be decorated with umbrellas. Finally, sprinkle tangerines all over the table - this looks tempting.
