Happy New Year

December 29, 2011 By Spoonful of Sugar - 11 Comments

We are planning a quiet New Year this year. I think a lovely dinner, some champagne, and a family movie will be a great way to see in 2012!

For those of you planning something with a bit more Zing, there has been plenty of New Year’s inspiration over at Pinterest.

Here are some of our favourite New Years projects (perhaps we will have more energy next year)!

New Year Cookies from Sweet Sugar Belle

Countdown Party Theme from Hostess with the Mostess

Free Printable from The 36th Avenue
New Years Banner from A Field Journal
New Years Resolution Poster from Idea Obscura

What are your plans for the New Year?

    Happy New Year to you! We are going to make a selection of appetizers, visit friends and watch a movie.

    Love the selection of celebratory goodies you found, especially that printable sign! So cool to find clever typography and design.

    Those new year cookies are stunning – bold and smooth icing perfectly piped and draped over a beautiful, pale sugar cookie- if only my year ahead is to be as perfect!!
