Top 20 New Year’s Eve Party Accessories

We here at Listicles are finally planning our New Year’s Eve party (a little late, we know, we know). Aside from obsessively fine-tuning the booze and guest lists, we’ve blown the majority of our budget on silly party gifts. With that in mind, we won’t be able to invite all of you, dear readers, because we’ve had to change venues given our dwindling budget.

But just because you won’t be among the elite five invited to our studio apartment doesn’t mean you can’t vicariously take pleasure from the awesome party accessories we purchased. So, before you head off to your less exclusive and therefore not quite as hot parties, here are Listicles’ Top 20 New Year’s Eve Party Accessories.

Cotton Candy-Maker

We’ve gone through three of these already because we keep trying to make alcohol-infused cotton candy.

Nail Party Picks

Though the image above gives us intense castration anxiety, we’ll be using these nails to serve veggies at our party.

Fake Pizza

Let’s face it, party-goers will be so eager to stuff their faces that they’ll have engulfed a face-full of this fake pizza before getting wise to the gag (which is that this fake pizza has a face in it).

Pizza Dome

We’re cheap, we don’t have a big enough oven to make real pizzas, and this way people can make their own then carry them around the room on their…

Finger Food Tray

Perfect for negotiating those twisting and turning valleys of teetering party-goers, you can also deploy up to ten of these at once to avoid frequent refueling.

Party Rat Lights

“If you can’t beat ‘em, party with ‘em.” At least that’s the attitude we’ve adopted to make light of our serious rodent problem.

Nyko’s Wii Party Station

Nerdy as it is, this Wii accessory with its individual drink-coolers, LED scoreboard and chip and dip bowl is a self-contained party for those with a really limited budget.

Color-Changing Bowl

Though we’re unsure whether we’ll serve punch or food in this glowing orb, we know that whatever ends up in there will instantly become cancerous. Like the Beastie Boys said: “You’ve got to fight cancer for your right to party.”

Bubble-Blower

A little tacky perhaps, but since we haven’t showered for days (so many preparations, you know) we’re hoping that a few hours of nude partying in a room with this snazzy piece will do the trick.

Party Animal Cups

Celebrate biodiversity while imbibing. Take your eco-party to the next level by serving drinks whose names match the cups (we’ll be drinking Zebras all night).

Dual-Fuel Cocktail Shaker

Keep the spirits high and skies friendly with this plane-shaped cocktail mixer. Of course, preparing anything other than first class Aviations will earn you a party foul.

Chemistry Set Cocktail Mixer

For lab rats and mad scientists alike, mixology becomes a science with this cocktail set. It’s especially good for mixing Sweet Science.

Penguin-Shaped Mixer

If you’re gonna be lame and not show up in a penguin costume, the least you could do is grab this classy number and mix some Fuzzy Penguins.

High Five Stirrers

We don’t give high fives anymore –we’ve graduated to butt-pats, head-butts and a variety of awkward handshakes – but we’ll gladly spill drinks everywhere while trying to make our stirrers high five.

Bottle Cooler Light

Provinding mood lighting and all the while lightening the mood with the drinks it keeps chilled.

Inflatable Pirate Ship Cooler

It’ll take up the entire room, but it’s totally worth it. Besides, it won’t be the first time we party in a pirate ship (we’d tell you about the other times, but you won’t be at the party, sorry).

Denture-Shaped Ice Cubes

This icy gag will make for some great jokes until somebody leaves screaming thinking that the person hitting on them is a leper.

Titanic Ice Cubes

Nearly 100 years later, this nautical tragedy is finally ripe for parody and party accessory punditry.

Lava Lamp Shot Glasses

Not since we gave up Mountain Dew 8 years ago have we been so sure that our drink would do irreperable bodily harm.

The World’s Largest Champagne Glass

Not only does this do away with the refill problem, but by the time you’re done your first glass you and the party will be done, so you can climb into it for a nap.

Happy New Year’s Eve revelry!
