The New Year's Eve is a very special occasion where you can bring out your most precious crockery . First, place a low plate to serve as a decorative dish and base to put the dishes that we will be serving during dinner. This dish will not have to be changed and should always be larger than the rest. Choose the necessary cutlery and place them in the following way: the knife and spoon to the right of the plate and the fork to the left, the cutlery for the dessert always on top of the plate and perpendicular to the rest of the cutlery.

Another important element in the decoration of the table for New Year's dinner is the glassware . They should not miss the glasses for water, red wine and white wine. These should be placed in the upper right part of the plates and following an order from left to right, first that of water, then of white wine and, finally, that of red wine. If you have enough space, you can also take out the champagne glasses or, if not, keep them until the time of the toast so as not to overload the table.

Once we have all this clear, we can focus on the decorative elements that will give a personal and special touch to the table. A recurring option that never fails is to place one or some beautiful centerpieces . Ideally, they are not too high to prevent them from impeding the visibility of the guests and in case they include flowers or scented candles, try not to give off a very strong smell, as it could interfere with the taste of the food. The centers based on candles, dried flowers and pineapples are always a great alternative to decorate the table at New Year's Eve.
