small candles for aroma lamps with tin trays,
flowers (natural or artificial)
and beads (pebbles can be used).

The water can be tinted with a dye. At the bottom of the container, we place beads and flowers, fill them with water, and lower the candle on top of the water (you don't have to worry, it is lighter than water, so it will not sink).

Flowers and candles on the festive table.

The combination of these two elements will give your festive table an atmosphere of luxury and romance. To create such compositions is elementary.

You need to put a long candle on the saucer, around which you need to lay out bright flowers. Candles can be placed in pretty glasses and placed on a wooden stand.

First you need to cut the sponge so that it follows the shape of the basket.
After that, it must be placed inside the basket and firmly fixed with tape.
Flowers and branches of needles must be placed on the sponge evenly, in a spiral.

Evergreen beauty: New Year's compositions from coniferous branches

New Year's holidays, of course, cannot do without pine needle crafts. Quite often, candles, ribbons and Christmas tree decorations act as additional components in them. We bring to your attention several possible options for such decorations.

Spectacular bouquets of spruce paws.

Compositions of spruce branches in the form of bouquets will look very bright in the interior decor. They are usually placed in low vases, on dishes, plates or trays.

In the center of such an ensemble, you can place a tall red or white candle or a decorative candle in a glass. This year, they can be supplemented with exotic fruits, for example, oranges decorated with clove buds.

Wreaths for doors and walls.

These attributes of New Year and Christmas are considered classic. There can be many options for such decorations.

The basis for such wreaths can be both natural needles (thuja or Christmas tree), and New Year's tinsel, birch branches, paper, fruits, sweets and even pasta covered with golden paint.
You can decorate the wreath with whatever your heart desires: bows, homemade boxes, ribbons, toys, Christmas balls, decorative straws, pine cones and even cinnamon sticks. In the photo you see various options for such wreaths.

To make such a wreath stylized to the theme of the New Year of the Golden Dog, you can attach small toys in the form of doggies to it, weave spikelets into it or sew small puppies from yellow fabric. Such elements will make the New Year's wreath unique.

Small compositions.

To prevent the interior from being overcrowded with bulky compositions, make several small crafts from pine needles. For example, you can tie twigs and some buds with a large bow (preferably a bright color).

Also popular today are small compositions of balls for a Christmas tree and branches of pine needles on wooden dishes in the Dutch style.

Needles are a very convenient material for crafts, because they retain their color and properties for a long time. Therefore, compositions from spruce branches or thuja will delight you with their splendor for more than one week.

Popular decor: candy compositions

Crafts made from sweets and other sweets will look no less beautiful. In this case, it is important to choose those that have a bright wrapper. Compositions of them are considered the easiest to manufacture. There are a great many ideas for them. We will give a few.

Candles and candies in glass.

Small candies or colored sweets are placed in a large glass jar or wine glass, and a candle is placed in the center. Simple, fast and beautiful, isn't it?

To make such a composition in the style of the Year of the Fire Rooster, you can place a small felt chicken in a container with sweets. On the jar itself, you can make the inscription "2017" or some short wish (motto) for the New Year with colored markers or acrylic paints.

Making a composition in the form of a Christmas tree from sweets, a master class on video

Such compositions have a conical base (usually cardboard, but champagne bottles can also be used). Sweets, tinsel, bows or organza flowers are attached to them. Its appearance completely depends on your imagination. In the photo you can see possible models of such an unusual New Year's tree.

At first glance, such a composition may seem complicated. Therefore, we invite you to see the whole process of creating a caramel Christmas tree with your own eyes in the video.

Pineapple candy.

2019's eastern hostess, Pig, should be surrounded by tropical paraphernalia. Therefore, we offer you an original decoration for the New Year - a pineapple made of sweets and a bottle of champagne.

It can be done in a matter of minutes by fixing alternately chocolates (preferably round) on the surface of the bottle using a glue gun. In this case, the candy is glued to the orange sticker, and then to the bottle.

As you can see, using imagination and the simplest materials, you can create real New Year's masterpieces. On New Year's Eve 2019, try to decorate homemade compositions with oriental symbols, buy several small toys or figurines in the form of pigs, make them from felt, fabric or a quilling kit.

We wish you good luck in making New Year's compositions and, in the end, we offer a photo selection of interesting ideas that will certainly inspire you.

Winter is often perceived by us as a monochrome season, where everything is filled with snow-white color. But in fact, this is a time of contrasts: white snow and juicy-red berries of viburnum and mountain ash, purple beautiful fruit and rich green conifers.

In winter, even the aromas are thicker and more intense. All this can be conveyed by your bouquet! Combine soft, airy cotton and pine cones, vibrant roses, oranges and fir branches.

Combine elements opposite in texture, color and shape in a bouquet. What would be too much in summer will enrich the bouquet and create a mood in winter.

A real work of art! How could it be otherwise? Indeed, in a winter bouquet, not only flowers are often used, but also other natural materials that correspond to the season:

bunches of mountain ash, beautiful carp, viburnum
twigs with fruits of snowberry, barberry, rose hips
birch branches
dry flower boxes with seeds, physalis
bumps
bark and graceful tree branches
branches of conifers (spruce, juniper, thuja, cypress)
cotton bolls
cinnamon sticks
star anise
dried oranges
fruits and nuts
dry herbs
hydrangea inflorescences and other dried flowers

Your imagination can suggest the most unexpected options for the elements and decor of the bouquet. Choose something that will not freeze, will not fade quickly, which we associate with the winter season. For example, florists advise choosing flowers of dark shades for your bouquet, they are more persistent and even if the petals are slightly affected by the cold, it will not be noticeable.

A rose, chrysanthemum, calla lily, carnation, gerbera, tulip, gypsophila, freesia, hydrangea, snowdrop, cymbidium are ideal for a winter bouquet.

Additional accessories for the bouquet can be knitted items, ribbons, lace, cords, buttons, foil, Christmas balls, beads, organza, figurines of angels and birds.

Bright, intense, and at the same time, winter bouquet with piano roses, ilex, orchids and cotton.

This bouquet is composed of pine branches, "snowy" spruce cones, brunia, thuja branches, snowberry and eucalyptus. Small flowers resembling cherry blossoms look delicate and light in a bouquet. The handle of the bouquet is decorated with handmade lace, twine and waxed cord with wooden buttons.

Interior composition will perfectly decorate your home on snowy winter days, complement the table setting and may well replace the Christmas tree. Use the advice of florists and create your own unique decorative object. So:

The winter composition will have a beautiful shape if you arrange the flowers in it at different angles and at different levels.

Any composition has a focus - a point that attracts attention (a bright flower, a large bud, a candle, a branch of the original form). It is not necessarily located in the center, but it is around it that the whole composition is built.

Choose a composition container that matches the style of your interior.

If the composition will consist of fresh flowers, use a floral sponge. It will also come in handy when creating a Christmas wreath for table setting.

As the basis of the composition, you can choose foam or plasticine. Such a basis is suitable for New Year's compositions, when it is necessary to fix spruce branches, balls, animal figurines, garlands, and set candles.

For single cut flowers, thin narrow vessels (test tubes) can be used, which are easy to fix inside the composition.

Use branches of different lengths (vines, willow twigs, branches and tree roots). With their help, you can add dynamics, direction to the compositions.

A stand in the form of a saw cut from a tree is perfect for a New Year's composition. The composition itself is not installed in the center on such a stand, but is shifted to one side.

On a light background, a composition of bright and dark flowers will look good, on a dark background - a light bouquet.

You don't have to buy flowers for your winter arrangement. Most houseplants are perfect for creating one. Moreover, many of them have a flowering period in the winter. We choose:

poinsettia (christmas star)
Schlumberger (Decembrist)
hippeastrum, amarylis, vallotta
orchid
chlorophytum
cyclamen
azalea

A fragrant, winter composition of scarlet roses and spruce branches with cinnamon sticks and orange.

compositions with candles

another attribute of the New Year holidays

Compositions with candles are the safest option for creating a special Christmas comfort in your home. Soft candle lights will set everyone in a romantic mood, and lovely compositions with winter berries, pine needles and glass candlesticks will make the atmosphere truly festive.

Remember the main thing - having bought just a few candles, rummaging through a box with New Year's toys and armed with a small spruce branch, you can decorate your windowsill or table with a stunningly beautiful New Year's composition! How can you miss such a chance? Show your imagination! How about a composition in white? For this, you need a medium-sized spruce branch, which you need to cut into small branches. However, artificial needles will do, but nothing beats a real, tasty-smelling spruce paw.

Pine and spruce branches, mossy branches, dry branches of larch and linden, decorative branches of berry bushes with preserved fruits, dry roots, flowers and herbs, dried fruits, berries and vegetables, as well as fresh flowers - cut or in pots, are perfect for arranging. moss.

How about natural decor? Place the candles in straight-walled glass glasses and decorate their walls with thuja sprigs. The twigs can be glued or simply wrapped with red thread - the composition in any case will look very New Year's.

Another option is special candlesticks on a sawn tree knot. You can buy ready-made compositions with flowers and berries, or you can make them yourself using pine needles, mountain ash or any other winter fruits.

Cinnamon sticks tied around the candles look spectacular. In addition, cinnamon, heated by a candle flame, will begin to exude a pleasant aroma. You can tie the cinnamon with either a “Christmas” red ribbon or a simple twine - it looks equally stylish.

The basis for the New Year's composition can be dry branches, bark, decorative pieces of roots, cuts of tree trunks, knotty grapevines, metal trays and trays, ceramic and glass vases, a frame made of wire or rods, pieces of foam plastic.

Use transparent glasses or vases, bright mountain ash and artificial snow! If you pour artificial snow into a glass candlestick, the composition will become incredibly New Year's! Install several candlesticks at once and surround them with lush spruce branches or rowan branches. Red has always been considered the main color of the Christmas holidays!

An interesting idea for New Year's decor is candles in glassware (glasses, glasses or medium-sized jars). Wash and dry the dishes so that there are no streaks and dust on the walls, buy simple white candles and glue them to the bottom of improvised "candlesticks" using melted wax. Decorate the glass with plain confetti or paper cut masks, musical notes, stars or snowflakes. Candles will light up the paper beautifully, and paper figures will cast fancy shadows on the walls.

Use colored candles for your compositions! Of course, they are more expensive than white ones, but they also look much more spectacular. The most New Year's colors are blue and red. If possible, complement the composition with accessories of the appropriate color - for example, pastel blue Christmas balls on a platter look great with blue candles, and red candles are effectively complemented by red winter berries, ribbons and even leaves. Combine shades of the same color - for example, soft lilac and light blue, light blue and bright blue, red and dark pink.

If a tall candle is light and discreet, then there is a high probability that it will simply get lost against the background of a festive table and a snow-white tablecloth. But low white candles, immersed in a luxurious spruce frame, will contrast very well with the green coniferous background.

Figures of animals - symbols of the coming year according to the Eastern calendar - are appropriate in New Year's compositions. Soft toys with a long nap do not go well with fluffy needles, but porcelain, plastic, glass, stone and clay figurines will be very useful. The central element of the New Year's composition can be a beautiful Christmas tree toy - a bell, a bird, a fish, a golden cone ...

From additional materials, glue, nails, plasticine, sand, thin wire, needle holders, a floral sponge, test tubes, small containers, Christmas tree decorations and candles, satin ribbons, serpentine, rain and other tinsel can be useful.

It will not be superfluous to stock up on spray cans with silver, gold and white paint for New Year's chic-shine. You can gild and silver branches, cones, nuts, which, as if by magic, will instantly turn into something fabulous and magical.

So that you can include fresh flowers in your New Year's composition - hyacinths, freesias, carnations or rosebuds, buy a piaflor flower sponge or green florist flasks in a flower shop, into which you can pour water and insert live flower stems or branches so that your the composition remained fresh for as long as possible and delighted you with its pristine appearance.

You can buy candles in different shapes, in any color and scent, or you can make them yourself, with the scent you love.

New Year and Christmas table compositions will bring a real atmosphere of magic to the house, and the warm flickering of candles will emphasize the mystery of expectation of a miracle. And let dreams come true in New Year and Christmas, and a miracle will surely happen!

There are many options for using candles in the decor of a festive interior: they can be placed on the fireplace, placed in the fireplace, placed on the windows, on the floor, on the steps - it looks elegant, festive, romantic and magical.
