Hostess with the Mostess®

I’m super excited to share my latest project for Balloon Time with you, because it has BALLOONS and GLITTER… and CHAMPAGNE! I don’t know about you, but these 3 are all definitely on my list of favorite things. ;)

New Year’s Eve is all about celebration and PARTY TIME – so my goal was to create a festive table and centerpiece that felt glitzy and glam, but that was also easy and affordable. I designed some printable paper stars for the  place settings, tossed some tissue confetti on the table, and stretched pieces of cut balloons around champagne flutes for a pop of color. After shooting this table I also played around with turning the stretched balloons into “drink markers”. More on that in an upcoming post!

Ombre Glittered Champagne Bottles + NYE Balloons

The main “star” of the table is the centerpiece, though… it’s a bouquet of balloons embellished with metallic letter stickers (the kind from an office supply store) tied to an ombre glittered champagne bottle. These bottles are SO FUN TO MAKE! You can find the full DIY tutorial + download the printable stars over on the Balloon Time website.

I just love how these bottles turned out! And yes, they’ll still chill up nicely when you want to drink them later. ;) These would make for a show-stopper hostess gift too!

I stuck glittery foam star stickers (purchased at a craft store) back-to-back on  fishing wire strings for a “floating stars” effect under the balloons:
