celebrations

I can't believe 2009 is over. Really. I've heard so many times that the older you get the faster time goes by, but wow. I never really believed it until recently. Remember 10 years ago when everyone thought the world was going to end? I've been trying to recall how I was celebrating the new millennium a decade ago. I can't recall, which I scarily think has something to do with the aforementioned *older* part.

I love dreaming of glitzy New Year's Eve parties. The sparkles, the lovely dresses, the champagne. Sigh. When I ran across this beautiful image, my imagination went crazy with a silver and gold New Year's. So.Lovely.

Wouldn't this tablescape be perfect for the celebration?

Oh and these clocks are so perfect and festive.

I, of course, would be wearing this dress.

And, since I'm dreaming, I would also arrive at the party with this masterpiece that I'd whipped up that afternoon. Because it screams special occasion. And, I love that.

So, do tell. How will you be celebrating New Year's Eve?
