New Year’s Eve in Dubai is always something special — cool winter breezes, sparkling city views, and gatherings that flow effortlessly from dinner to midnight celebrations outdoors. This time of year is perfect for hosting on terraces, rooftops, gardens, and balconies, where the crisp air and open sky create a magical backdrop.
At Heart Cottage Lane, we curate warm, inviting pieces that make your New Year’s Eve celebration beautiful, comfortable, and memorable. Here are our favourite ways to elevate your night — before and after the clock strikes twelve.
1. Set the Mood with Candlelight & Luxe Scents
Dubai’s winter evenings call for a soft, glowing atmosphere, and nothing creates it more beautifully than candlelight.
Voluspa Candles: Ambience + Fragrance
Our Voluspa candles collection elevates the entire night with rich, layered scents that drift gently through the cool air. Favourites for New Year’s Eve include:
- Baltic Amber – warm, spicy, cozy
- French Cade Lavender – calming and elegant
- Gilt Pomander & Hinoki – festive and citrusy
- Goji & Tarocco Orange – bright and uplifting
Their decorative jars act as both scent and candle décor — stunning on dining tables, consoles, or outdoor side tables.
Candle Holders & Luxury Matches
Enhance your candle display using beautiful candle holders from our curated selection. Pair them with our elegant match boxes from the Matches Collection — practical for lighting the night and stylish enough to leave out as part of your table décor.
Create a Candlelit Landscape
How to effortlessly set up a luxurious yet warm candlelight display at home:
- Mix candle heights for visual interest
- Use lanterns to protect flames outdoors
- Add metallic holders to reflect golden tones
- Weave eucalyptus or greenery for softness
This glow becomes the heart of your evening.
2. Alfresco Tablescape: Warm, Elegant & Inviting
Most New Year’s Eve dinners in Dubai are held outdoors, making the table a true focal point. This year, the Pip Studio Dot Delight White–Gold collection is the star — crisp, modern, and perfect for a festive celebration.
The collection’s signature look combines:
- Pure white porcelain
- Oversized metallic gold polka dots
- Golden bases, rims, and handles
This palette glows beautifully in candlelight and perfectly matches the spirit of New Year’s Eve.
Featured items include:
- Teapot Large Dot Delight White–Gold
- 1.2L Set of 2 Mugs Large Dot Delight White–Gold (350ml)
- Set of 2 Small Mugs (290ml) with Tea Tips
- Bowls & Plates in White–Gold Dots
Complete the Look with Golden Linens
Pair your Dot Delight pieces with:
- Embroidery Stars Gold Tablecloth
- Embroidery Stars Gold Napkins
The embroidered gold stars echo the polka dots, tying everything together with festive warmth and luxury home décor appeal.
3. Drinks Done Right: Champagne Buckets & Flutes
No New Year’s Eve is complete without a sparkle.
Champagne Buckets
Choose from:
- Classic silver buckets
- Statement conversation starter pieces
- Gold-accented buckets
Set the bucket beside a tray of champagne flutes for easy, elegant self-service.
Champagne Flutes
Our glassware collection includes:
- Silver champagne goblets
- Coupés for that nostalgic touch
- Star-patterned champagne flutes perfect for NYE
These add instant glamour and photograph beautifully beside candlelight.
4. After Midnight: Cozy, Heartfelt Moments to Welcome the New Year
Once the fireworks fade, guests often settle into warm, relaxed conversation. This is the perfect time for a small cheese board, a nightcap, or a warm drink.
A Simple, Elegant Cheese Board
Use:
- Wooden or marble boards
- Nora Fleming boards with NYE-themed minis
- Small bowls for nuts, olives, and dried fruits
- Honey, figs, and crackers for effortless grazing
This setup encourages lingering and chatting long after midnight.
Warm Drinks to End the Night
As the breeze cools, a warm drink becomes comforting and intimate. Alongside the Dot Delight mugs, here are some mugs that are perfect for New Year’s Eve:
- Set of 2 Mugs Large Dot Delight Navy-Gold (350ml) – A festive twist on the classic Dot Delight. Perfect for adding depth and contrast to your white-and-gold table while staying in the same celebratory palette.
- Large Mug Love Birds Medallion Deer Dark Red – Ideal for hot chocolate or mulled drinks after midnight. It’s rich, warm, and beautifully detailed. The deep red feels wonderfully seasonal.
