BYEEE 2020 - NYE at Home
Oh my gosh I don't know if I've ever been so excited to celebrate a new year in all my life! I'm honestly more excited about it than I was about Christmas (😳). I know things are not magically going to get better overnight, but it's a new fresh start and mentally feels like a little weight will be lifted. PLUS I'll be celebrating in my sweatpants!
In true Chelsea fashion, I still had to go a little over the top, even if it's just going to be the two of us! Brian and I plan on indulging in some delicious appetizers. On the menu: bacon wrapped jalapeño poppers and buffalo chicken meatballs, yum! Not to mention King crab legs! I'm pretty dang excited about those babies.
There of course needs to be champagne involved and what better way to serve it up than an amazingly sparkly bar cart?!
This just might be my favorite bar cart setup I've styled yet! So much gold, glitter, and sparkles- I just love it! There's a good chance it might all need to stay up past Friday.
I started with the backdrop using white, black, and yellow streamers. For a metallic touch, I added in silver stars (Ellie and Piper Co) and gold fringe (Party City). These items are sold as a solid backdrop or “door curtain,” but I cut out individual strands to randomly place them throughout.
I'm pretty obsessed with using trays, and this gold and marble one from World Market was the perfect place to setup all the cute details. The mini disco balls are again from Party City (sold as a giant necklace, so I cut them off the string) but the little champagne bottle from LulaFlora really steals the show! It's actually a mini pinata- how cool is that?! She customizes each order with different text, I thought “Byeeeeeee” was pretty appropriate 😂
One of my favorite details from this setup happens to be one of the smallest- the 2021 stir sticks! These drink stirrers are laser cut and are the perfect little detail to top off any festive libation! I paired them with the disco ball stir sticks I found at Party City and then took things over the top with a sprinkle rim featuring the “Wanderlust” sprinkles from Fancy Sprinkles.
However you plan to celebrate, I hope it’s a safe and joyous occasion! Let’s maybe go into the next year with low expectations, but high hopes 💛 Happy New Year! ✨
