New Year's Day Open House Invitations

New Year's Day open house invitations for a drop-in on Friday, January 1: Front Door with a welcome mat and potted plants under WELCOME, Coffee's On with two steaming mugs, and Home Sweet Year, a photo window inside a little house with bunting. Each back gives a window of hours instead of an RSVP. Type the family name and the hours, add a photo to Home Sweet Year, and print or text.

Hosting tip
If the TV will be on, say so. New Year's Day is a big day for college football, and a note like the Home Sweet Year sample's "Chili, cider & football on TV" tells fans they won't miss the game by stopping in.
How it works

Details, wording, colors, download

Open any design above in the maker. One of these designs has a photo window: drop in a picture and drag it until it sits where you want it. Type the family, the church or your names as hosts, the day and the hours; an open house puts its time range on the RSVP line. The back carries one practical line: what to bring, whether kids are welcome, parking, or the time a Noon Year's Eve countdown starts.

Pick one of the three palettes drawn for the design, then download a 5 x 7 PDF (front and back), a two-per-sheet letter PDF for home printing, print-shop PNGs with bleed, 4 x 6 PNGs for a photo counter, a phone-sized PNG or a Word file. For more lines to put on the card, see the New Year’s invitation wording ideas.

Frequently asked questions

What hours should a New Year's Day open house run?
Four hours is typical, and the samples use 1 to 5 PM, 10 AM to 2 PM and 2 to 6 PM. A morning window suits coffee and pastries; an afternoon one suits chili and a game for guests who were up past midnight.
Do people RSVP to an open house?
Usually not, so all three designs put the hours where the RSVP would go ("Drop in anytime · 1 to 5 PM"). If you need a rough headcount, add a phone number and "Let us know if you can make it" to the back note.
