Preparation for the New Year should be carried out under the motto “How you celebrate the New Year, so you will spend it”. And you need to celebrate this event in an original and beautiful. In this case, the next year will bring good luck and success in all endeavors.
First of all, you need to decorate the room in which the New Year’s Eve will take place. First, look around the room and identify objects that will not fit into the festive interior. This furniture will have to be removed. You should also decide on the color palette, it is advisable to use no more than three shades that will harmoniously combine with the interior of the room. If desired, you can make each room in different color.
Consider various ways to decorate the apartment
The most common method of decorating the room is the design of windows using paints or other improvised materials (for example, snowflakes can be cut out of paper). The drawings that are usually decorated with windows can be diverse – snowmen, animals, snowflakes, Christmas trees, a symbol of the coming year, etc. D. To portray this, they usually use gouache or watercolor, sometimes used, mixed with warm water toothpaste. These ingredients are mixed to the consistency of the thick mass, which is similar to sour cream, and then using a brush, the mixture is applied to the glass. The method of decorating windows by applying various drawings is very popular. Even if the winter is not particularly snowy, then patterned glass will create frosty and comfort in the house. A mixture of toothpaste is easily removed from the windows, so you can at least every day experiment, fantasize and draw new pictures.
Curtains can be decorated with decorative bows or inflatable balls. Bows can be done independently. To do this, you will need satin ribbons, suitable color. They should be combined with the color of the curtains. You can also use lace or other interesting fabrics. The number of balls can be any, relative to your desires and capabilities. Inflate them and tie them with thin threads to pre -prepared bows.
Attach the resulting elements of the decor to the curtain with clerical needles, you can also pins. Instead of balls, other items made by your own. In this case, you can use colored paper, real cones, papier-mache, etc. D. These jewelry are perfect for any interior.
Potions with flowers can also be moody of the new year. To do this, you need to purchase packaging paper. It can be bought in flower or bookstores. Wrap the pots with this paper, and then tie a silk ribbon. In this way you can not only decorate your apartment for the holiday, but also make the room more cozy and attractive. This method will be especially welcome if there are many flowers in the house. The shade of packaging paper should also be in harmony with the interior of the room.
What other details do you need to pay attention to, decorating the room for the New Year? Which will help to cause the emotions of the pre -holiday mood? Of course, the smell of mandarin, ate and chocolate. Replace the tangerines with orange. Also to give the room a natural aroma, we need a clove. By inserting cloves into the skin of an orange, we make various patterns. It turns out beautiful, original and fragrant. Half of the orange, cutting with slices and circles, can be dried in an open oven (there is no need to dry the fruit strongly). The pulp should be elastic and dry. Using a needle with a thread, you need to pierce the white part under the crust and then you will get a product on the likeness of a Christmas tree toy. By cutting the fruit with large or small slices, you can hang them on threads of various lengths. Such a craft will be a beautiful decoration at the New Year’s holiday.
If you have a old Christmas tree tinsel, then do not rush to throw it away. All kinds of wire figures can be made and glue them with this particular tinsel. Such interesting toys can be attached to the mirror, curtains or walls of the apartment. It is better to decorate the Christmas tree with new tinsel.
On interior doors you can hang New Year’s wreaths. Such a tradition exists in many countries of America and Europe. This wreath can be done independently or purchased in a store. To create such a decoration, the following materials will be needed: cones, ribbons, wire, branches of spruce or pine, “substitute” of snow. First you need to braid the branch of a tree, then you need to tie them with wire for strength. Further actions depend directly on your imagination. You can decorate the product with bright satin ribbons, glue cones, apply snow substitute. The snow substitute can be done as follows: lower the branches of spruce or pine trees in a salt solution, wait a couple of hours, and then remove and dry. A layer of salt crystals is formed on the branches. This effect will perfectly complement the composition and make it interesting and original.
In the countries of America and Europe, flashlights are also used as a decoration for the New Year. To make them, you need a dense cardboard and scissors. First you need to apply various figures on paper, and then cut them. The wrong side of the cardboard is sealed with colored or transparent paper. Your fantasy is welcome here. You can also make a square from cardboard and insert a candle inside. Be sure to place a candle in a jar or another suitable vessel, otherwise there will be deplorable consequences. It is better to glue a glass or a jar of gift packaging, fabric or colored wipes. Some even paint with watercolor paints. Having completed all the above recommendations, you will receive a beautiful festive flashlight that will delight you and your loved ones. It can be placed not only on the festive table, but also on window sills and book shelves.
New Year’s table can be decorated with snow -covered or hoarfrost fruits. Do not be afraid for this do not need to take goodies outside, you just need to take sugar and water and prepare a special azure. For one spoon of water, one spoon of sugar will be needed. The ingredients must be brought to a boil and the icing is ready. This mixture neatly spray fruits. So you can decorate apples, pineapple, bananas, etc. D. Also, ordinary sugar powder is welcome as snow.
With the help of ice flashlights, you can also decorate the room beautifully and original. Such scenery can surprise your friends and loved ones. Buy a ball, fill it with water and send it for a while to the freezer. Next, it is necessary to free the frozen water from the rubber shell, and then make a small hole in the center of the ice. This can be done with hot water. A candle is placed in the hole made (preferably in the aluminum shell). Such flashlights can be placed in the corridor or on the balcony. Such decoration will surprise everyone around and make it possible to feel the approach of the holiday. If you want to install such lights in a warm room, it is better to put them in deep plates. In any case, the lantern will melt, and the candle will swim in the water. Such a luminary will last in a warm room – 4-6 hours, in colder (unheated corridor, balcony) – much more.
Having worked a little and fantasizing you can make ice dishes. To do this, you need to take two plates: one large, the other small. The decorations can be: shade, flowers, beads, tinsel, berries, etc. p. A large plate must be filled with a small amount of water and placed in the freezer. Jewelry also needs to be lowered into the water. Further, we put a smaller plate on top of the larger size (already in a frozen state). We install a not very heavy load on top and fill the remaining space with water.
We put it in the freezer again. After which our dishes are ready. Naturally, it will not be possible to use such plates for a long time, but they will become an original decoration on New Year’s Eve. On this dish you can put ice cream or light snacks.
Do not forget to photograph this creation and boast of friends.
We wish you a happy new year!
