Preparing for the New Year

In a good way, preparations for the New Year's meeting should begin about a month before this event. But who is it that turns out? So if you are one of those people who thought about the problem of how to prepare for the New Year about a few days before its onset, then the plan for preparing for the holiday will come in handy. Why is it needed? Just New Year's fuss and preparation is capable even of the quietest person to be unbalanced, and therefore, in order not to miss anything, it is better to write down a plan for the preparation for the New Year and, as far as the execution of the items, proudly delete them from the list.

So, suppose today is December 30, and you have not yet installed a Christmas tree, no cleaning has been completed, and not even all the products for the holiday have been purchased. When making a plan, try to optimize it, eliminating unnecessary and repetitive actions. For example, they remembered that they had forgotten about the champagne, bought it and returned home, found that they took instead of 3 bottles 2. And again the store, a long line, and as a result, fatigue and lost time.

How to prepare for the New Year in less than a day or an approximate plan of action at the last moment:

  1. We determine the list of necessary products and hastily go for their purchase. Because on December 31, I do not really want to waste time in lines. By the way, when you write down all the necessary products, pay attention to such trifles as napkins, skewers for canapés and souvenirs-prizes for guests for participation in competitions. To visit the store twice a night or cut out for this time on the last day of the old year will be an unnecessary item in the list of necessary actions.
  2. If, after returning home with purchases, the forces remain, then we start setting up the Christmas tree and decorating the house, if not, we postpone these procedures for tomorrow and go to bed. To sleep on the eve of the New Year would be nice - who would like to peck with the nose immediately after the battle of the chimes?
  3. The morning of December 31. Finish work on decorating the house for the New Year and installing a Christmas tree and cleaning up. It is not necessary to do cleaning (it's not about the general, with calling at the most secluded corners of the dwelling and getting rid of old unnecessary things) before installing the Christmas tree. Because during the decoration there will probably be fallen pine needles on the floor, pieces of tinsel and rain, pieces of paper from snowflakes cut in haste, etc.
  4. Now it's time to think about food: if there are any dishes that you do not need to cook right before serving, for example, cut out salad products, and then fill it later or a cake that you decide to create on your own. If you want to save time on making a New Year's cake, then it's better to choose a recipe for this dessert without baking.
  5. Prepare to the maximum all the food, pay all attention to yourself. Delicious food and elegant home, it's certainly good, but without the charming and well-groom mistress of the holiday feeling will be incomplete. So we start to prepare our outfit and put ourselves in order. And, applying make-up and giving your hair a chosen form, we try to do it without haste - you will manage everything. All the dishes are almost ready, the rooms are shiny with cleanliness and decoration, and the decoration of the New Year's table will not take long. So do not get distracted and devote this time completely to yourself, for a couple of hours after a busy pre-New Year's marathon you just deserve it!
  6. We finish the preparation for the New Year by serving the table, "bringing to mind" dishes that take their place on the New Year's table and meet guests.
  7. The last most pleasant point of our plan is actually the New Year's meeting, well, there will be a completely different order of actions within the framework of the plan for the New Year's celebration. You have it, do not you?

Less trouble at the last minute and happy New Year!
