This upcycled New Year’s Eve décor is a great celebration centerpiece! You can use this champagne bubbly inspired craft for your champagne party, as an accent at a party bar or as fun décor at any cocktail party – or simply leave it up year-round on your wet bar. Super easy to make, this Bubbly New Year’s Eve Table Décor piece can be made in gold, silver, copper, rose gold, or pink champagne colors for a great added sparkle decoration adorning your party tabletop arrangement.
Bubbly New Year’s Eve Table Décor
This fabulous little craft took under 30 minutes to make. It is even better looking in person, but do be warned that if your old floral piece is shiny it will reflect everything and anything.
Notes:
• I listed this as New Year’s Eve but it can be used at any party where you have a bar, engagement parties, weddings, Mardi Gras, Roaring 20S Party, the list is endless.
• This is super easy to make. You are using leftover Christmas ornaments, an old floral container, and an old candlestick. If you do not have items to upcycle, look for an oversized martini glass, or champagne glass at your local party supply store and use that.
• You could make this for a baby shower using a yellow duck, and the balls as bubbles (as in bubble bath)
• This looks so great because three different size balls were used, and also different textures were used: matte metallic, metallic, and glitter (so flat, flat sparkle, and sparkle).
• The look you are going for is foam spilling over a glass
• Liquid nails is the preferred glass adhesive. We used hot glue, but for glass, liquid nails is best.
• Remember that this is a 360-degree craft, and keep turning as you are gluing.
• We did not use all ornaments. We used a combination of ornaments for the larger bubbles and smaller gold balls for the smaller bubbles.
Bubbly New Year’s Eve Table Décor Materials:
• Old Candlestick
• Old Floral Container
• Hot Glue, Glue Gun and Liquid Nails
• Bulbs in various sizes and textures: gold, silver, copper, rose gold, clear, pink champagne are all good color choices
• Floral Foam
Bubbly New Year’s Eve Table Décor Directions:
• Glue together the candlestick to the base of your floral container. If you purchased a new container that already has a base, skip this step.
• Fit floral foam to the inside of your floral container. Hot glue in place.
• Start affixing bulbs to the floral foam. You want to make sure the bulb caps (if you are using ornaments) are down toward the floral so they will not be seen. Begin by using larger bulbs to cover the floral foam. Hot glue in place.
• Hot glue smaller bulbs over the holes left behind by the smaller bulbs.
• To make the spill: start hot gluing balls in a stagger over the side of your “glass cup”. Think of how a champagne glass bubbles over, this is asymmetrical and swoopy.
• Turn your bubbly decor as you are working, and fill in any holes or bare spots with bulbs. Continue to turn and fill in the spaces until you are happy with the fill.
• Pull off any hot glue strings.
