Decorate the office for the New Year: stylish, original, fun
The atmosphere of the New Year holiday is already in the air, but no one canceled the working environment in December. Therefore, the abundance of assorted jewelry is not comme il faut. But Christmas balls of one, two or three colors (preferably matte) and a small amount of tinsel to match - that's what you need.
Christmas tree - the main attribute of the New Year. Naturally artificial, so as not to sweep needles every day, especially the color of such a beauty can be chosen in any color, even corresponding to the company logo. If you have imagination, you can decorate the office with a Christmas tree from products that the company sells or produces.
And if there is very little space in the office space, then a wall-mounted Christmas tree will be the way out. Such a Christmas tree is attached in any convenient place and is made from the same balls, tinsel, garlands, branded business cards, badges, pens. You can even create it from colored paper or stickers with wishes.
Brought beauty and looked around. If the mess on the tables is in dissonance with the festive atmosphere, it is better to get rid of it. After all, general cleaning before the New Year is a common thing. And after that, each workplace can be decorated with a small Christmas tree, a vase with sweets or a figurine of the symbol of the coming year.
What to cook for the festive table?
Sources of New Year's abundance on the table can be different:
- management takes over, orders food for delivery,
- a certain amount is allocated, employees must dispose of it at their discretion,
- participants donate to the general cash desk, the amount is spent by agreement,
- everyone gets the task to cook a certain dish,
- bring something from home.
If you decide on the order of ready meals, then the issue is resolved. It remains only to discuss the quantity and qualitydrinks, but if the chef is in charge of the buffet, then this is fine.
The last option can turn into quiet horror. It is possible that the table will be lined with assorted plates and vases with Olivier salad and jelly, which is trembling or already spreading from fear of being eaten.
It's better to discuss the holiday menu in advance, and let colleagues show off their culinary skills. Snacks are preferable such that they are convenient to take and eat without fear of getting dirty. For example:
- canape sandwiches,
- vegetables and fruits in the form of barbecue on skewers,
- small pies and pancakes with caviar or salmon (one bite),
- salad in tartlets,
- cakes instead of cake.
In general, something that can be eaten easily and carelessly between dances and competitions will do. Stock up on a sufficient amount of disposable tableware, and cleaning up after the feast will not confuse anyone.
