Jarek1978 delivers this take on the original model “Glasses 2026” by Lengele via Thingiverse. He says, compared to the original model, he adjusted the number 2 because it was too thin and risked breaking. He also enlarged the notch to make it easier to attach the ears. This model prints without supports.

This clever 3D print is designed as a dual-message optical illusion that transforms depending on your point of view, making it both visually striking and meaningfully inspiring. When viewed from the front, the model clearly displays the year 2026 in clean, bold lettering, but with a simple rotation, the geometry shifts to reveal the hidden phrase “Will Be My Year,” delivering a motivational message built directly into the form. The effect is created through precise angles and layered shapes, turning the piece into a modern conversation starter that feels right at home in New Year’s decorations, on a desk or shelf for daily motivation, or as a thoughtful gift for someone beginning a new chapter. The model prints well in almost any material and doesn’t require high detail settings, with a layer height of 0.28 mm or 0.20 mm providing crisp results, 10-15% infill for efficiency, and two to three perimeters for strength.

For best visual sharpness, it should be printed flat on the 2026 side so the text edges remain vertical, and supports are required, with tree supports from the build plate working especially well. Makers can choose between printing the complete version, which combines all three elements – “Will Be,” the connecting symbols, and “My Year” – into a single piece at the cost of additional support material, or printing each part separately for faster production, easier color changes, and flexible assembly using glue after printing.

Everyone needs something special to do once that clock strikes 12, and no party is complete without some confetti. Now you can 3D print your own pocket-sized confetti cannon and surprise everyone with a pop of color. Choose from a variety of printable confetti options, such as classic stars and hearts, or print out numbers to indicate the New Year.

The model uses a print-in-place spring and a hinged latch to keep the confetti inside while the spring is retracted. Removing the hatch will release the confetti. The spring is strong enough to launch your confetti while remaining safe to use.

Makers have praised the model on its ease-of-use while warning against scaling the prints down by more than 80%, as the mechanism won’t work as intended. PLA is a good choice for filament as it will give just enough strength to the spring while remaining flexible.

This is a simple yet great design to welcome the New Year! The designer commented that different backgrounds can be printed, so as to have different colors available.

For printing, no supports are required, and the maker recommends printing the first layer at a slow pace given that the model is quite intricate. A maker added their own touch with a stunning, colorful backlight.

This sign is plain and simple: just a big “Happy New Year”! The maker switched from white to blue filament at the end of the print to make the letters pop out. As shown in the image above, using two contrasting colors has a great effect for not much effort!

Even if you don’t have a multicolor setup, you can use Cura to pause at height and swap the filaments.

Champagne is another common tradition for celebrating just about anything, and while it’s not really a sign, this model perfectly displays your festive feelings. The two-part design is a champagne glass minute and hour hand for a clock, so you can know exactly when it hits midnight. According to the creator, the hand should fit an Ikea Stomma clock.

Besides the classification of this model as support-free, no other printing suggestions are available. However, this model isn’t very complex, so you should be fine printing this piece with standard settings.

A little New Year-themed party decoration can go a long way in making your event special. These multicolor coasters feature beautiful firework displays that you can customize with your favorite colors. Just be sure to print out enough coasters for all of your guests, as they’re sure to be popular.

The model is designed to be printed in multicolor using a Bambu Lab AMS unit. To take the appearance to the next level, the designer has used a PEX build plate to impart a holographic effect onto the prints’ surface. While this is definitely recommended, as the results speak for themselves, you can still get perfectly fine prints off of a standard build plate.

And to add even more cookie cutter models, how could we not have champagne?

While you can’t drink out of them, they make a great display item.

While the designer didn’t make any printing recommendations for this model, one recorded maker shared a great print that included their settings. They listed that they used a 100% infill with no raft and no supports to make multiple champagne glasses.

Another common tradition for New Year’s Eve is sparklers. This model is a sparkler holder that can hold up to 27 sparklers and allows you to make a nice display of lights. With holes spread across three different heights, this holder keeps the sparklers secure at different angles.

The designer provided a host of different print settings, including that they used two shells and a 20% infill to print this model. In the comments, a few makers were concerned about using PLA because of its heat sensitivity, but no problems have been reported.
