How to decorate a house for the new year

Make a plan

You need to plan ahead what kind of Christmas accessories you would like to see in your apartment. It is advisable to start thinking about this from the inside of the house, gradually moving to the outside. Take pictures of the rooms in your apartment and the area around the house. This will greatly facilitate the planning process for the variety of accessories. These pictures should be taken with you on the day you go shopping for toys and other paraphernalia. So you definitely will not be mistaken with the choice.

Find a use for your Christmas tree branches

When you buy a real spruce, you inevitably have to prune individual branches from the tree before you start decorating. Do not throw away these scraps, as they can be successfully used as a natural garland. It can be used to decorate a staircase, doorway, fireplace or even your family's holiday table. In addition, the cut branches will come in handy for lovers of beautiful Christmas wreaths. It is customary to place them at the front door or window.

Choose a Christmas color scheme

The use of different color schemes for the New Year's decoration of an apartment is, of course, great. But during the organization of the holiday, we recommend that you draw up a certain shade scheme that will allow you to create a bright and original evening. You can decorate the whole house in the same color scheme. If desired, each room can be decorated in different ways. For example, you can use a red and gold scheme to decorate a festive fir tree, and a fireplace can be decorated with green and silver shades. In addition, you can use the listed colors to decorate the entire apartment.

LED lights on the facade of the house

If you have your own home and are attracted to the option of placing bright lights on its facade, consider using programmable LED lights that change colors. On a dark snowy evening, these accessories can create a fabulous Christmas mood. LED flashlights consume much less electrical energy than classic lights. This means that you can easily decorate the outside of your home without increasing your financial costs.

Scenery

Christmas decorations are the most versatile. You can give free rein to your imagination and choose the decorations to your taste. Decorations that traditionally hang on the tree can also be successfully applied to other parts of the house. You can also use transparent jars and containers. They can be stylish and cute to showcase the bright accessories located inside them. These transparent containers can be easily positioned on the dining table or in the bedroom on the bedside table. You can be sure that you will be able to create a great mood.

Likewise, detachable hooks can be attached to the bottom of shelves and cabinets for hanging garland decorations. A chain of colorful rain accessories can be hung along the kitchen cabinets. Would you like to decorate the shelves in the living room? Do the same.

Paper snowflakes

Another element that can be used to decorate a house for the New Year cheaply and sincerely. All you need is scissors and white paper. A significant plus of such an accessory is that you can attract your whole family to make it.

    plastic bottles. Plastic is a practical and easy-to-use material for creating candlesticks, elements for garlands, small figurines for decorating a Christmas tree and even mini Christmas trees for decorating a festive table;

    textile... Since the fabric can deform, take care of a solid base or use felt: these materials can be used to sew Christmas tree decorations or garlands with New Year's elements. Bulky toys can be sewn from soft fabric;

    decorations... Who said that ordinary beads and earrings cannot be used as a decorative element? Small accessories are perfect for decorating small artificial Christmas trees, and beads from unnecessary decorations can be used in the design of candles, candlesticks, figurines, Christmas tree wreaths;

Show your imagination and do not be afraid to implement the most daring ideas: photos of the New Year's decor 2017 will serve as a source of inspiration for you.

Tip: when deciding how to decorate your house for the New Year 2017 with your own hands, do not forget about the harmonious arrangement of accessories.

The shade and shape of jewelry also play an important role: everything should be in moderation, so scatter accessories around the room, adhere to a single design style and try not to combine several catchy design elements at once.

So that you don't have to redo your work several times, plan in advance where and how the New Year's atmosphere will be created. Make sure that not only furniture, but also different surfaces in the house are decorated festively: this applies to walls, windows, doors, ceilings, window sills, individual niches and ledges, fireplace areas.

It is desirable that home decoration for the New Year 2017 be made in the same style and not be characterized by an excessive abundance of conflicting shades: the most successful in this design are white, red, golden and green colors.

Table setting

The place where sob guests are fussing - the central zone of the festive decor. Therefore, you should not save money by decorating the table only with dishes and dishes. Considering that many accessories can be made with your own hands, you do not have to spend money on stylish serving.

The accessories used to decorate the table should match the New Year's decor at home. It is not necessary to make the table bright and catchy due to the appropriate shades: even in white and pale blue, the setting will look stylish and sophisticated, since light shades are associated with the winter holiday.

How to decorate a house in the Year of the Fire Rooster is easy to find out by referring to the symbolism of the next year: red can be present in textile elements, food, jewelry and toys; the theme of fire can be supported with the help of candles or garlands with characteristic lanterns, choose figurines, drawings and New Year's candles with the symbols of the Fire Rooster 2017.

The brightest decoration of the table will be candles: you can choose ready-made options for the New Year's theme and even scented candles that will allow you to relax and enjoy the holiday.

If you want to decorate the table and the interior in the same style, you can make candles for the new 2017 yourself.

To do this, prepare molds for future candles, melt the wax, fill it in - and wait for it to harden. Remember to insert the wick first. Finished wax figures are decorated with varnish, paint, sparkles, beads, napkins (decoupage technique), cutouts, ribbons and many other suitable accessories.

Candlesticks in the New Year's table setting in 2017 will play an important role. It is believed that the rooster loves everything bright and shiny, so why not pick up metal or transparent candlesticks that shimmer under the fiery highlights.

Glass candlesticks with long legs will be a stylish addition to the classic table decor: they can be made using glasses and placed in the center of the table.

Decorating a festive table will not be complete if you do not pick up textiles. The tablecloth can be white or have a bright shade, but it is better to use plain options without patterns.

If you do not plan to decorate the table with a tablecloth, take care of the availability of cloth napkins: they can have a standard square shape, be openwork or embroidered.

Plain cloth napkins can be decorated with stylish grabs or colorful ribbons. Do not forget that even food laid out in an unusual shape (for example, in the form of Christmas trees) can become a spectacular decoration for the New Year's table.

We decorate windows

Let's figure out how to decorate your house in the Year of the Fire Rooster if you don't plan on dwelling on serving alone. Even the window area can become a space for creativity: here you can apply several bright and interesting ideas.

The most common window decoration option is gluing paper-cut scenes onto glass. To emphasize the New Year's decor of the window, look on the Internet for interesting pictures on this topic, print on white paper and cut along the contour. It can be a reindeer with a sleigh, Santa Clauses, Snow Maidens, Christmas trees, houses, a blizzard, gifts, New Year's toys and other subjects.

Tip: you can show your imagination - and cut out different snowflakes: children really like this process, so connect them to creativity. To make the snowflakes shimmer under the glare from candles and garlands, glue them over with glossy film or paste them into a regular file cut along the contour.

If you don't want to waste time cutting out figures - make one stencil, lean it against the glass - and brush the slots with toothpaste. As a result, slightly blurry drawings will remain on your window, which will look quite realistic.

Ordinary Christmas balls, fruits, toys can be used to decorate the window. It is enough to fix them on long ribbons and tie them to the cornice. This decor is suitable if your window is not covered with curtains.

For decorating a windowsill, you can also implement several interesting ideas. For example, furnish the surface with New Year's-themed toys and figurines.

Using durable paper or cardboard, you can create a realistic composition across the entire width of the window: cut out Christmas trees, houses, clouds, among which a sleigh with deer is traveling - arrange in several layers all over the window sill and separate with garlands that will create flickering light in the evening.

For realism, create a New Year's decor from foam: it will simulate snow. Using this material, you can also create some elements of a fairy-tale composition or toys for a cornice, garland, curtains or a Christmas tree.

Interior decoration for the new year 2017 can be complemented even by decorating curtains. Attach bows, cones, Christmas tree decorations to the fabric, hang rain or garlands - and your room will be perceived more festively.

Other areas of the room

Where else can you show your skills? Of course, the materials at hand will be useful for decorating the Christmas tree, because you cannot do without it on New Year's Eve. In addition to standard store-bought decorations, decorate it with candy, tangerines, homemade toys, ribbons, and even themed cookies. And don't forget the gifts!

For those who love regularity and restraint in design, the idea of ​​decorating a Christmas tree with only garlands will seem attractive. Bright lanterns will replace multi-colored balls, and in the evening this area of ​​the room will become the most fabulous and mysterious.

As a material for hand-made, you can use light bulbs, paper clips, puff pastry, cones and tangerines, fabric, plastic lids, berries, nuts and other elements. You can create Christmas tree decorations from existing, but outdated ones: for example, beat a few bright balls - and prepare a shiny powder for new decorations.

Another area requiring decoration is the door. Even if it is not the main one in your home, you can use several common decor options: hang rain and tinsel, draw a Christmas tree (or glue paper figures), create a festive wreath.

Attention! It is wreaths that have been considered a trend for several New Year holidays. They can be made from spruce branches, small Christmas tree balls, berries, tangerines, cones, toys, candies, beads and other accessories. Determine the parameters of the wreath, focusing on the size of the door.

Also, the fireplace can be decorated with candles, garlands, rain, toys, spruce twigs. It is advisable that the decor of the fireplace matches the decor of the Christmas tree.

If you have chairs with backs, take care of creating stylish covers: they can depict Santa Claus, deer, snow maidens. The best shades for chair covers are red, white, green, and gold.

New Year is the kindest, happy and long-awaited holiday that fulfills dreams and inspires many life deeds. And in order for the mood to be truly festive, happy and cheerful, it is necessary to decorate the house. I bring to your attention seven of the simplest and most original New Year's fakes that you can perform even with children.

Snowflakes it is a classic and integral Christmas decoration associated with sparklers, a decorated Christmas tree, gifts, delicious treats and Santa Claus. It is very simple to make them - fold the paper (it is better to take thick cardboard) three times in half, as a result you should get a triangle, the edges of which should be cut out figuratively (snowflake patterns). Then straighten the leaf and you will see that you have got a funny snowflake, sprinkle it with glue, sprinkle with sparkles and when it dries, fasten it to the tape.


Beautiful and original snowflakes can be made using the Quilling technique (twisting thin paper ribbons).


Some needlewomen suggest using a cut out snowflake as a ballerina's tutu: cut out a dancing ballerina figurine and put a tutu snowflake on it. As a result, your home will "dance" with interesting and festive decorations.


Snowflakes can be made and assembled from absolutely any materials, for example, from curly pasta. Therefore, show your imagination and you will get the most original and beautiful New Year's snowflakes.


Candle. Soft warm light from a burning candle will give you a festive, kind and sweet atmosphere. You can decorate the candle itself, for example, cover it with a monochromatic shiny paint and attach cones, berries, Christmas tree branches and other elements at the base. Or you can decorate the glass and place a candle inside. As a rule, fairs are organized closer to the New Year's holidays, where you can certainly find an interesting beautiful holiday candle, and you just have to choose a suitable place for it on a richly served table.


Paper chain. This is the most favorite, traditional and interesting activity in childhood, when cut strips of colored paper were glued into a long chain. Instead of plain sheets, you can take colorful bright paper for scrapbooking, curly scissors and, in the company of children, create an original festive decoration.


Recently, more and more often you can find a paper garland not from classic rings, but from figures.


Felt jewelry- This is one of the most festive, chic and beautiful fakes. It is very simple to make them: cut out a conceived figurine according to the template - a Christmas tree, Santa Claus, a house, a traditional sock, a deer, a snowman and many other New Year's characters. Then use glue, thread with a needle, beads, buttons and ribbon to assemble and decorate the figurine.
