I have never loved a NYE table setting more than this one. I never liked silver that much and also never considered to incorporate it into a table setting (made an exception for my daughter´s Frozen birthday party) but I have found these gorgeous pieces of decor at Sostrene Grene and was immediately hooked!!!

The disco balls and bow theme is just chef´s kiss if you ask me. I mean a disco ball and NYE just go hand in hand.

We will be out at the theatre in the afternoon and we all be home together at night and have dinner at home. Our usual food – pulled beef, spinach dip and bread. Delicious !! I can´t wait. 

The bow candles, the wall decor and the silver stars as well as the candle holders are from Sostrene Grene. The blue velvet bows are from amazon. Disco balls are from our local drug store dm but are also available on amazon.

This is a thing I have never thought of while I was younger and kid free. Did not make any sense for me to get random things in case I would forget about an ocassion I needed a little gift or I´d have no time left to get anything. Now many years and three kids later this makes a hundred percent sense to me. There are tons of tiny ocassions you need to have a little something at home like….

– when a tooth fell out and the tooth fairy comes the same night

– when you need a little bribery (for family photos or things like this)

– a birthday party that was sneaking up on you cause your kid forgot the invitation 

– when you didn´t count twice and only had 21 things for your kids advent calendar 🙂

– when you suddenly realized the dinner invitation was today and you have no minute left to leave the house and get a thing

What kind of gifts to keep in your Gift Closet 

For the kids:

– I do like to keep little LOL dolls, little Barbie dolls, Schleich animals or little surprise boxes for my girls

– Small games, coloring or scratch books, trendy items like unicorn, mermaid or Gabby´s Dollhouse pieces

For the grown-ups:

– gift cards, cholcolates a nice bottle of wine (we can drink it ourselves if we don´t end up using it)

What kind of gift wrapping makes sense to keep in your Gift Closet

– Cards

– Wrapping Paper

– Gift Bags

– Bows and gift ribbon

Happy 1rst of December, the holiday countdown has finally started and also our two elves have moved back in, temporarily of course. Not only do they keep an eye on the girl´s behaviour, they also can be found in a new spot every day and make quite the shenannigans themselves. 

I know that having 24 ideas all by yourself is hard. We had days we jumped out of the bed in the morning cause we forgot to change the elves´spot and I try to avoid these stressful mornings now and plan ahead. 

Today I am sharing our last 23 ideas what to do with your elf/elves so you can start joyfully into your day by children 01who are looking for the elves everywhere with great anticipation what the naughty ones might have done.
