It is worth noting that the pigeon has 3 parts - the body, wings and lower part.

1. Cardboard candlestick

On New Year's Eve you will probably light candles to create a festive and relaxing atmosphere. Try to give your candlesticks a custom look using perforated paper, cardboard stars and colored threads - the whole process will take no more than ten minutes. True, not just any candle is suitable for the job: choose models in a thick, tall glass cup holder that will prevent contact between the fire and the cardboard.

2. Candle in fabric wrapper

A candle in a glass can be decorated not only with paper, but also with fabric, secured at the neck with glue and the joint can be decorated with ribbon or twine. For such a reception thin will do textiles that are easy to style the required form without unnecessary folds.

3. Ball with falling snow

As children, many of us had Christmas gifts with falling snow: if you shake such a ball, the “snowflakes” slowly rise up and then smoothly fall to the bottom - why not a toy for New Year’s meditation?

To make a souvenir with your own hands, you will need a jar with a lid, a decorative figurine, crushed polystyrene foam and glycerin. Glue the figure and a small “snowdrift” of foam to the lid, fill the jar with glycerin (it can be mixed with water to make the snow fall faster) and fill it with crushed foam. Now close the lid and enjoy the hand-made magic.

For this DIY, they do not use Christmas tree balls, but small round vases - it is more convenient to paint them and place them on the chest of drawers. You need to decorate the hemisphere from the inside using spray paint. While it is still wet, lightly blot the coating with regular paper napkin— expressive streaks will appear on the surface.

5. Miracles happen

If you like life-affirming slogans and inscriptions in the interior, the New Year is the time to create a composition with a positive charge for the next 12 months. The letters can be cut out of cardboard and attached to toothpicks or sushi sticks, and the glasses can be filled polymer clay or even ordinary plasticine.

6. Wreath for great possibilities

Wreath of artificial branches You can buy it at any home goods store, but we recommend decorating it not with ordinary Christmas tree decorations, but with whatever is at hand. In our example, these are keyholes and keys on ribbons, which symbolize new opportunities - with such a wreath the coming year will certainly bring them.

7. Felt stars

Thick fabrics like felt or felt are easy to cut and retain their shape well, making them ideal for creating DIY Christmas tree accessories. Choose a shape to suit your taste and start by creating a stencil: this will make it easier to cut the fabric evenly. The place where the twine is attached can be hidden under a large bead.

8. “Knitted” toys

If you know how to crochet and knit, knit stylish “packaging” for those boring Christmas tree decorations. To decorate the balls, you can also use an old sweater that you don’t mind cutting up - the joints of the knitwear can be sewn by hand in five minutes.

9. Mini Christmas tree

A simple mini Christmas tree will help decorate your desktop or windowsill. Roll a cone out of thick paper, carefully cut off the excess material from the bottom and apply thin layer PVA glue. Start wrapping the cone with yarn from top to bottom, pressing each new layer of thread tightly, and at the end of the curtain, decorate the Christmas tree with colored buttons.

10. Frost under glass

Transparent Christmas tree balls are good because they allow you to express yourself without limiting your flight of imagination. We love this elegant decor with a “filling” reminiscent of frost: to make the same, cut out the design from thin paper (drawing paper or even baking paper) and carefully place it inside, lifting the cap with fastening.

11. Magic socks

In the West, Christmas gifts are often placed in stockings, which are usually hung on the mantelpiece. If there is no fireplace smell in the apartment, this is not a reason to refuse interesting idea: Socks can just as easily be hung on the dresser or at the foot of the bed. Choose voluminous woolen socks from the store, decorate them with buttons and ribbons and calmly wait for Santa - he definitely has something special in store for you this year.

12. Gingerbread house

Even if you are far from cooking, do not be afraid to experiment with gingerbread house. Firstly, stores sell ready-made plates that just need to be put in the oven, and then glued and decorated. Secondly, such a house will become the main decoration festive table, and then dessert. Melted chocolate is best for gluing, and in the decoration you can use candies, whipped cream and mastics - or all at once to make the house even more elegant.

Despite the fact that cinnamon is a spice from the tropical zone, its fragrant sticks are strongly associated with New Year holidays. Apparently, it's all about the hot winter drink - mulled wine, for which cinnamon has become one of the mandatory attributes. These spice sticks are truly indispensable for holiday decor: try gluing them in a “picket fence” to a thick candle and tying them with a bow: when heated, cinnamon will emit an unobtrusive but exciting aroma.

14. Winter fruits

Who doesn't love snacking on champagne and tangerines? If the feast is still far away, make stylish New Year's decorations from citrus fruits. Oranges and lemons should be cut into very thin rings (literally 2-3 millimeters) and placed in the oven overnight at a low temperature (about 60 degrees). In the morning you will receive translucent dried slices that can be fastened together in several pieces, threaded and hung on the tree.

15. Garland of memories

If the year has brought you many joyful moments, then the days remaining before the festive feast are perfect for remembering this. We suggest making a garland of memories from printed photographs, twine and ordinary clothespins: guests will recognize themselves in the photographs new year party they will rejoice with you.

People who are creatively inclined decorate their home for the New Year not only with purchased decorations, factory-made garlands and branded glass balls.

They, together with the children, make themselves both toys for decorating the Christmas tree and other New Year's decor for home decoration. I offer several original photo ideas For festive decoration interior

1. New Year's table setting

Festive dishes and expensive service on New Year's table this is probably timeless classic. But the central place on it can be given to a large New Year’s composition in the style of a “winter village” or a winter landscape. You can make (or buy in the form of a plastic construction set) children's houses from paper, cardboard or salt dough, depicting a snow-covered city. Add them with small Christmas trees and figures of people, sprinkle sugar, decorative sand or small foam around the composition - and voila! New Year's street will appear right before your eyes.

Decorative composition in the style of a New Year's town on a festive table.

2. DIY architectural compositions

Continuing the topic winter landscapes and street layouts - next idea. Such a fairy-tale village in the style of New Year's minimalism does not require any special skills of an artist (or an architect), so you can make it using colored or gift paper or cardboard, decorated with sparkles.

A toy town made of houses can be combined with a children's railway, placing it around a Christmas tree. A New Year's “snow-covered village” can also decorate a windowsill. Houses with LED lighting will look especially good. Such compositions, for example, from KAEMINGK, are sold ready-made.

Location options decorative houses in the room.

If your children love Lego constructors, then you can buy them a set to create such a mini-town. After the structure is ready, it can be decorated with “snow” made of cotton wool or foam balls.

It’s enough to simply make houses from paper or cardboard, colored or corrugated. Even simple cylinders glued together from thin cardboard, covered with a “roof” made of corrugated candy wrappers (paper baking molds) can become magical huts if you color them with felt-tip pens and draw windows and doors. We have collected several such ideas for you in the photo below.




3. Original aroma candles

The smell of cinnamon is traditionally considered New Year's. If you are crazy about this scent, fill the whole room with it. To do this, you need to tie it with cinnamon sticks, as shown in the photo. When heated, they will emit a pleasant and warm aroma throughout the room.

4. Feng Shui decor

Are you interested in the culture and traditions of China? Then arrange this composition from plain bottles (preferably red), tangerines and fresh flowers entwined with serpentine.

5. An unusual decorative element for the kitchen

To make such a vivid imitation New Year's forest, you need three salt shakers, tiny ones artificial Christmas trees(instead, you can use real pine needles or make such trees yourself), as well as a toy figurine New Year's character(if you don’t have a deer toy, replace it with a miniature figurine of Santa Claus or Snowman).

The second photo shows unusual dioramas that can be made using sugar in glass glasses. How? Detailed instructions I publish the photo separately.

6. Bringing naturalness to the decor

Compositions from dry trees in the ECO style are now more fashionable than ever. You can decorate them not only with knitting threads, as shown in the photo, but also with any other factory-made or homemade decorative elements.

7. Christmas tree made from old books

If you have several old books, use them to make a Christmas tree like this. Below will be located big books, and at the top – smaller ones. The side pages can be colored green and the covers white. The topmost book, as shown in the photo, may be red. In order not to paint the pages, you can choose the second option.

This idea is perfect for those students or school kids who want to decorate their dorm room.

8. Candy New Year's composition

You can delight children with such a sweet surprise, enriching it with original holiday paraphernalia: a Christmas tree placed on a cupcake and made from tiny beizet with green food coloring, as well as a snowflake assembled from small candies.

Considering that nowadays Christmas trees are in fashion unusual flowers, then you can use white or lilac marshmallows.

9. An extraordinary way to give family gifts

If you give each other small souvenirs for the New Year, you can place them as follows. Glued gift boxes on the picture (you can use a frame and a blank canvas), attach numbers to them. IN New Year's Eve you can arrange something like a draw or family lottery: receive a gift with the number you drew.

10. Mad Hatter style decor

This character from the fairy tale “Alice in Wonderland” would certainly appreciate the efforts of the decorator! However, you need to work hard on such a masterpiece by making colorful hats, and then securely attaching them to each other and to some support (for example, a window slope).

11. Sparkling cones

You can make beautiful decorative compositions from cones (I already wrote earlier) in baskets or glass jars. Christmas trees and bouquets are made from cones; they look great in combination with Christmas balls and ate with twigs.

But the cones themselves can be made bright and decorative. This can be done in two ways:

  • Using the spray method, apply a thin layer of paint to the scales of the cone. A lightly tinted bump looks great paints combined with artificial snow.
  • Wind thick knitting threads around the scales as shown in the photo. Preferably choose yarn of a piercing, “fluorescent” shade. Then the lump seems to begin to glow.

12. The magic of color and light in glass

Using glass containers of various shapes and purposes, you can create amazing jewelry. Glasses used are low and tall, pot-bellied and narrow, jars with metal and glass lids, pharmaceutical jars and vials. And, of course, vases with and without legs.

Below you will see a couple of examples, and separately I have put together for you a collection of 33 photos of New Year's decorations in glass.

13. Painted champagne

Bottles are usually painted with special acrylic or stained glass paints. Painted bottles of champagne can decorate the table for the holiday, and then remain in the room as part of the interior and a memory of the New Year celebration.

14. Figurines from glass containers

If champagne bottles can be painted and placed on the table, then empty ones can be turned into funny snowmen or Santa Clauses. With a certain amount of imagination and skill, you can play the Snow Maiden.

Look at the example in the photo and think about whether you should place a family of these in a corner of the living room or on the windowsill. fairy tale characters.

15. Do you have genie from a bottle? And we have a gnome from a jar

You can make wonderful fairy-tale characters from empty jars with lids. These are either gnomes or snowmen.

We offer two options to choose from:


A snowman can be made from salt dough or clay (plasticine). And for naturalness, coat it with glue and sprinkle with coconut flakes.

16. We put shoes on tables and chairs

Everyone has heard about decorative socks for gifts. But not everyone knows that there is a tradition of putting on the legs of tables and chairs in so-called “elven stockings” or shoes.

From the photographs you will understand what we are talking about. You can use old shoes or sew real pointed-toe elf shoes from colored felt.



17. The logs in the fireplace give warmth, and next to it they decorate the room.

If your house has a fireplace (even a decorative one), then you always have excellent material for New Year’s decorations at your fingertips.

On the right in the photo you can clearly see using finely chopped logs and twigs using a small garland. And on the left - most interesting way, how to turn logs into decorative candle holders for floating candles in foil. But don't forget to keep an eye on the composition if you decide to light them.

New Year is always magical holiday. No matter how old you are, someone is still waiting for a miracle, and someone creates it with their own hands for loved ones. It is simply impossible to imagine this whole fabulous atmosphere without a decorated and elegant apartment. Of course, you can come up with decor ideas yourself, but if you don’t have enough time or imagination for this, then great option– use ready-made ones!

Symbol of the coming 2019 – Yellow Earth Pig. Therefore, when choosing some New Year’s elements to decorate an apartment or house, you need not only to fit them into the interior, but also to please this animal. And then luck will certainly be with you and those who are dear to you for the next 365 days.

It all starts with an idea!

Any project, be it decorating an apartment or some super business task, begins with an idea and a plan for its implementation! The first thing you need to do when organizing New Year's decor is to assess the size of the room. If your room is large and uncluttered with furniture, then you can come up with something large-scale. If there is not much space, then it is best to lean toward the “minimalism” style.

By the way, the latter does not mean that the New Year’s decor will turn out bad. What is important here is not so much the space as the soul invested in this difficult but pleasant task.

Once the main direction has been chosen, you can start looking for ideas! Surely both you and your family members, if you involve them in the process, will have many options. But don't delude yourself. In practice, it is not always possible to implement everything that is planned. And it often turns out much worse than in the imagination, and at the last moment it seems that something is missing. After all, in order for the idea and the result to coincide, you need at least a design education.

Not everyone has it, so when planning New Year's decoration apartments, some resort to the help of specialists. If this option is not feasible from a financial point of view, then you can look finished projects, magazines and choose something that suits you.

New Year's decor is not just an element. He will help create festive mood the whole family. If you do something with your own hands, then the “warm” details will remind you of positive aspects preparation. It is better to start it in advance, at the end of November - beginning of December. After all, in this case there will be enough time to redo, correct or complete something.

Color scheme is everything

After the plan has been drawn up and all the ideas have been written down, you can choose the color scheme in which the New Year's decoration will be implemented. Here, of course, it is worth considering not only your preferences, but also the taste of the Yellow Earth Pig. And she loves yellow, brown and their shades most of all, as well as black, pale red and gold. The latter should be “handled” as carefully as possible, otherwise even great idea risks turning into complete bad taste.

These colors are usually used to decorate the background. But in order to dilute them, you can take some other, unusual, contrasting and spectacular ones. The main thing is not to overdo it.

The above palette is, of course, desirable, but not at all mandatory. Rules are there to be broken. If you manage to skillfully and tastefully incorporate other colors into the interior of your apartment, the pig will not be offended at all. Moreover, designers are out of step with it and call purple and lilac the most fashionable.

In order to please the Pig, you can choose not only a color that is pleasant for it, but also more wooden elements. Cones, clothespins, figurines and other little things will add warmth and comfort to your New Year's interior, which is never superfluous.

Little things rule the interior

It doesn't matter how big your apartment is. In any case, New Year's little things will add comfort, warmth and create a festive mood. Of course, making them is not an easy task, but the game is worth the candle.

Many people think that the most important thing is to place cute things in in the right places. In fact, this is not so important - you can simply “scatter” them around the apartment in any order. It is much more important that they harmoniously combine with each other in terms of color and create a single picture.

What can be used as New Year's trifles? Small boxes decorated with stickers and bows, candies in colorful wrappers, pine cones, candlesticks and even tangerines. Special attention should be given to window sills.

What you can do with your own hands

Many details of the New Year's interior can be made with your own hands. For example, traditional and very attractive socks for gifts. Patterns and step-by-step descriptions You can find . But let everyone decide for themselves how to decorate their “gift bag”. The main thing is not to forget to write the names so that Santa Claus does not confuse who receives which surprise.

As a rule, socks are hung on the fireplace, because this tradition came to us from the West, where the vast majority of people live in private houses. Fireplaces somehow didn’t take root in our apartments: the areas are not the same, and there’s no need, central heating does an excellent job in cold weather winter days. But if you really want to hang socks for gifts on the fireplace, then you can make it yourself! You should definitely involve everyone at home in this activity, especially children!

Another traditional one new year element, which you can easily make with your own hands is a wreath. Of course, there are quite a lot of them sold in stores. But still, hand-made is always warmer and more pleasant. The decor of the wreath depends solely on your imagination. You can use cones, tinsel, small toys, candies, and so on.

Room lighting
