Tips to Turn Your Christmas Centerpiece into a New Year’s Tree
There’s nothing wrong with keeping your holiday decorations up until January. But if you’re throwing a New Year’s party, why not jazz up your tree to match your celebrations? Below are some ideas:
1. Keep it glam.
Pick Christmas decorations that double as New Year’s Eve ornaments. Choose ones with basic globe designs like a metallic ornament set. They match most decorating themes. Tracy of Sunny Chic Home decorated our Tinkerbell Silver Christmas tree with iridescent blue ornaments, which remind her of the sea. Her decorating theme is gorgeous, no matter the holiday.
Tip: Shop early with both holidays in mind. This will save you lots of time and make setting up your Christmas and New Year tree a breeze.
2. Repurpose some of your Christmas décor.
Once Christmas is over, it’s time your Santa figures and reindeer take a vacation. Your snow-themed and woodsy ornaments can stay for the New Year, though! After all, winter doesn’t end until March. Get inspired by this tree decked out by Faith of Design Fixation. She added even more shine to our gold Christmas tree with shiny ribbon and pearl sprigs. The white snowflakes, eucalyptus sprigs, and pinecones created contrast.
Aside from snowflake ornaments, Kara of A Kailo Chic Life also decorated her patterned tree with geometric ornaments. The metallic tones complemented the tree foliage. Then, she crafted paper fans out of gold and copper wrapping paper to complete the festive look.
Tip: Make sure to store your precious decorations properly, so you can use them again next year.
3. Reimagine red and gold for your New Year’s Eve decorations.
This color duo are staples for Christmas, but they make great hues for the New Year, too. Red is also believed to be a lucky color to usher in prosperity. Keep the décor minimal with red Christmas tree. The lush needles are enough to draw the eyes, while the lights enhance the dazzling effect of the gold ornaments.

4. Think outside the New Year’s tree.
Once your tree is set up, either call it a day or take your New Year’s Eve decorations further. For example, play up your tree with some funky lighting. Holiday decorating expert Jennifer Perkins used a color wheel on our Gold Rush Christmas tree. That must have been some light show!
Jen also suggests using party items as ornaments. Think streamers, glow sticks, party hats, noisemakers, (plastic) champagne flutes, and anything else you would see at a New Year’s Eve party. Make sure the decorative accents around the tree are coordinated, too.
In place of the Christmas decorations, I added cheap New Year’s Eve Party Favors. The idea is that on NYE, guests can take their party favors right off the tree.

Don’t just stop at your tree. Get that party started by decorating other areas of your home. Take it from Jessa of Sparkle Living. Use sparkly wreaths, garlands, and tabletop trees as accents.

5. Make it meaningful.
Got resolutions or affirmations for 2022? Create meaningful ornaments for your New Year’s tree like Kara. She used a vinyl cutter to cut out resolutions from colored cardstock. Then, she hung them on her white tree to serve as a visual reminder of her hopes and life goals.
Another idea from Jen: Use your tree as a backdrop for your New Year’s Eve vision board party. Spend time reflecting on what you want to accomplish for the year. Decorate a poster board or journal according to those plans and look at it regularly to keep your eyes on the prize.
6. Let the foliage of your New Year’s tree do the talking.
A pre-lit and patterned holiday centerpiece like this Black Gold Ombre Tree doesn’t need much to bring on the wow factor. Just add a firework-inspired topper and an elegant tree skirt. Once the ball drops on NYE, turn on the lights to turn up the shine even more!
