The New Year holiday is upon us and whether you are celebrating with just your family or a large gathering, this drink station idea is one you might want to steal! I am a Lowes Creative Blogger and this month’s challenge was to add some New Year’s sparkle to our home. My original idea was to build a drink tray and show you how to make your own. However I am still at my mom’s on vacation, sans saw, hardware, and tools, so I implemented Plan B…buy a drink tray instead! Who knew that Lowes sold such adorable accessories? And better yet, my tray and three white urns were all on clearance.
The tray and urns are all by Allen + Roth, and although I can’t find them available online you might be lucky enough to score some at your local store. The urns are plastic which is awesome if you have small children in the house. You can use them as candy jars, cocoa containers, and cookie storage without worrying about the lids being chipped by little hands. The tray is large, sleek, and modern with silver handles.
I found the adorable New Year’s printables from Catch My Party. I used the drink flags for marshmallows to place in hot cocoa. So cute!
The drink labels can be used on water bottles or any beverage of choice. Below, I removed the frappuccino labels and replaced them with coordinating printables.
Finally, I printed out the New Year’s banner and attached it to a gold curling ribbon for some added bling.
Silver, gold, and white balloons taped to the wall with 3M tape create a bubble inspired backdrop that is festive yet inexpensive! I love the way my drink station turned out and hope I’ve inspired you to create your own fun New Year holiday vignette.
Perhaps a $75 Lowes gift card will help you get your creative juices flowing in the new year! Follow the directions in the widget below in order to enter for your chance to win. Happy New Year loves!

So cute! I had no idea Lowe’s carried those items!
I have been eyeing two traditional black urns for furns for my front porch.

I love this!! I’m amazed that you made balloons look sophisticated and not cheesy!
I’d use a gift card towards getting a new front door!! Ours no longer latches, so the deadbolt must be locked all the time or else the door randomly blows open. The door itself is in pretty rough shape, too. The joys of a 30 year old house!
It would go toward the cost of a rotary sander that I’ve been eyeing…

I’m into a renovation of just about everything in my new house: paint, tub, tile, window door and baseboard trim throughout. Wish I could say I was in the middle but think I’ve barely scratched the surface. A Lowe’s gift card would be put to good use!
I would either put it towards a new oven or crown molding for our BORING basement!
oooh…$75. I could finish putting patio stones under the gazebo!

I am in Lowes all the time and am continually amazed at the unexpected things I stumble upon :).
Great ideas! I need to search more at my lowes, I usually go in for specific items and don’t wander around.
Me too! I have to say I’ve done way more wandering lately and am so glad that I have. They have some super cute decor which always seems to surprise me. I’m usually in there for lumber :).
I love Lowes for their plants–even in winter. I want to find an indoor herb garden for starters.
You are SOOO creative!!! I absolutely love your drink station!! So beautiful! I’d almost hate to use something off it-for not wanting to mess it up! Gorgeous!
Thank you so much Erica!
