How to Throw the Perfect New Year's Eve Party

If you want to have a memorable New Year's Eve to remember, then follow these really easy instructions!

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

• A few friends
• A TV
• Movies
• A kitchen
• Games(board, card, video games)
• A few bottles of your favorite brew, or liquor (optional)
• A few holiday snacks
• A Stereo

1. The first thing you want to do is plan it all out. Make a list of all the things you will need to buy from the store like party hats and festive plates and whatever other decorations you want to hang up. Get food, beer/alchohol(optional), and invitations for all your favorite friends.
   My recommendation for food is chips and salsa, pop, popcorn, pizza, cupcakes with colorful sprinkles that look like confetti, sandwiches, and White Castle Burgers.
   If you don't want to drink alcohol, some good non-alcoholic drinks that would go great at a party are root beer floats, and London Fog(7Up and Lime Sherbet) in a punch bowl. You could even make Sangria with Grape Juice!
2. Fill out all the invitations and get them to those specific people. You don't have to have invitations. You can just tell people by word of mouth but invitations are fun. Do this a week or two in advance.
3. Wait until the day before New Years to buy the food and everything else on your list.
4. The big day!
   Make cool party snacks and decide if you want to make special drinks for this occasion as well. You can't go wrong with Champagne! Hang up all the decorations you have.
5. Wait at home and watch as the people come ringing the doorbell. Let them in!
6. Offer them snacks, have something on the TV, put something on the stereo, and offer them a drink.
7. Hang out and have fun. Don't forget to watch the countdown on TV! Play games, do whatever it is that you guys like to do when you're kickin' it together.

Tips & Warnings

• If tons of people start showing up at your house, no worries! That's what makes a great party. Just throw some confetti at them if they start getting on your nerves.
• Don't order pizza until a good amount of people come over, that way the pizza will still be hot and fresh when they eat it.
• Don't drink and drive! Make sure that if someone is stumbling around from drinking too much that you hide their keys. Let them pass out and cover them with a blanket. They will be happy you did that for them. That's what friends are for.
