This New Year’s Paper Plate Craft is the perfect way to celebrate the new year with a creative flair!
We absolutely love doing Paper Plate Crafts and this New Years themed paper plate craft is so fun and festive. It is a great craft idea to celebrate the end of the year and bring in the new year. To be honest, we never stay up to midnight but we love a good Noon Year’s Eve party! Have you heard of it before? It’s where kids celebrate at noon instead of staying up until midnight. In my opinion, it is the perfect way to celebrate with little ones.
Whether you prefer to celebrate Noon Year’s Eve or New Year’s Eve and stay up until midnight, you can’t go wrong with this simple New Years craft idea. If you need even more fun New Year’s themed ideas be sure to also check out this New Year’s Do-a-Dot Page!

🖍️ Supplies needed
For this craft, you will need:
- Paper plate: I recommend using an uncoated paper plate. The uncoated ones are better for crafts because they absorb crayons, markers, or paint better.
- Printable art: See the printable PDF further below in the post.
- Scissors: If doing this craft with very young children you can either cut the art out for them or you can have them use safety scissors.
- Crayons, markers or paint: For the paper plate and for the printable art.
- Glue stick: Or you can use tape or regular glue.
- Hole puncher and string: This is optional but great if you’d like to hang the wreath up.
