DIY New Year's compositions

5 / 5 ( 1 voice )

Hi all! So we waited, December came unnoticed. It's cold outside, there's snow. Children are waiting for the arrival of Santa Claus and miracles. Well, you and I will have to create an unforgettable fairy tale, create something magnificent and decorate our home in such a way that everyone has only positive and positive impressions. It will be more joyful to live in such an apartment, and even more so to wait for New Year’s Eve 2021.

So let's get started, what ideas do you have about this? How do you usually design? I can guess and assume that you probably make crafts first and then present them to everyone as gifts.

Natural materials +

When composing New Year's compositions, the main element, as a rule, is the living branches of coniferous trees: spruce, pine, fir or thuja. They can be placed in a container of water or a floral sponge can be used. Unfortunately, such bouquets are short-lived; if you use artificial materials, the product will serve you for many years.

If you use artificial materials, the composition will be durable

Fans of minimalism or very busy people can not bother too much and make just such a simple “installation”. It won’t take much time to create it, and it will undoubtedly bring a touch of celebration to your apartment.

The simplest New Year's bouquet: several spruce branches in a suitable container

Let's add Christmas tree decorations, a couple of pine cones from the forest, some winter accessories - and now we have a completely finished New Year's composition.

Well-chosen accessories will help create a complete New Year's composition.

By the way, about cones. Together with coniferous branches, they create a complete New Year’s decor, which does not even require anything more.

Needles and cones - laconic classics

You can do without pine needles - just pine cones. This bouquet will be a good addition to a New Year's gift. And you can leave it in the interior even after the holidays:

Are you sure that traditional New Year's compositions require more bright colors, splendor and festivity? We add artificial or fresh flowers, Christmas tree decorations, bright ribbons to the needles - and we get spectacular beauty:

Bright details and fresh flowers will make the composition elegant and festive.

An indispensable attribute of the New Year is candles. And an elegant composition of coniferous branches can successfully act as a candlestick:

Fruits look very advantageous in festive compositions. For example, tangerines and oranges, which are always associated with the New Year.

Oranges + pine needles = New Year's mood

If you also decorate oranges with cloves, it will turn out not only beautiful, but also very useful - microbes cannot withstand such combinations. And with clove buds on an orange peel it’s easy to “draw” any pretty pattern

You can draw any pattern with clove buds on an orange peel.

You can use the whole fruit, but if you don’t want the elements of the composition to be eaten before the holiday is over, take dried citrus slices:

Other gifts of nature can also become a worthy element of the New Year's composition. Use apples, bunches of red rowan berries, nuts and chestnuts - whatever is on hand. Both natural fruits and their imitation - decorative fruits, berries and even mushrooms are suitable:

Sometimes a clock is included in the composition as a semantic addition. Of course, their hands always point at “twelve minutes to five.”

A watch is a good element of a New Year's composition

Do you want to be known as a true original? Then give up pine needles, cones and fruits altogether. Use only dry branches and toys - the result will be both stylish and festive.

In such “bouquets”, the correctly selected color scheme is very important. Avoid variegation - it will destroy harmony. And yes, the branches can be painted too.

Ready-made options for New Year's decoration of premises in the house

New Year is a special holiday, but many people prefer to order interior decoration from professionals. In this case, there is a risk of getting only a beautiful picture without a “soul”. It will not reflect individuality. Therefore, we decorate the house for the New Year ourselves, with our own hands.

There are a lot of ready-made original ideas for the New Year that you just need to take and turn into reality. For interior decoration, ordinary elements are suitable - these are fir branches, balls, candles, garlands. For example, you can look for interesting options in the Prime Decoration online store.

Hall

The main attribute of this room is the Christmas tree. In the New Year 2021, you should choose natural rather than artificial wood. It is decorated not only with toys in the classic style, but also with a solid design in yellow or gold colors.

The symbol of the year, a figurine of a dog, is attached to the branches of the tree. It can be made from paper or purchased ready-made in stores. They also make figurines of dogs from fabric and stuff them with cotton wool.

The windows in the hall are decorated with snowflakes - they are cut out of paper or a toothpaste solution is used, and a paper snowflake is used as a template. The solution is sprayed with a toothbrush. When it dries it will create a winter white pattern.

You can put candles on the fireplace shelf, decorate with compositions of spruce or pine branches and pine cones, wreaths and other crafts, and place decorative pillows in a New Year's style on the sofa.

Corridor

When working on a new corridor design, you shouldn’t turn everything upside down. All you need to do is decorate the room with a mechanical garland that falls from the ceiling. Homemade stars made from branches or other materials are hung on the chandelier. Colorful and catchy figurines of animals and fairy-tale characters are placed on the floor.

Children's

You need to start from the walls. While the children are in kindergarten, New Year's themed applique is attached to the walls. Stickers or panels with a New Year theme are suitable. You also can’t do without garlands of tinsel and fir branches. Be sure to put up a Christmas tree in the nursery on New Year's Eve.

It is best to decorate windows with painting. Using paints or the same applications, glass is decorated with New Year's images. The bed is made with themed bed linen. It should be bright and festive. A New Year's stocking is hung on the bedside. Here's how to decorate a room for New Year 2021, see photos

Important! You should not choose glass Christmas tree decorations; they may be unsafe for children. Replace them with homemade decorations: soft toys, pine cones, balls made from branches or threads, cookies.

Veranda

A bench is usually installed on the veranda and covered with a soft blanket; decorative pillows can be laid out on top, a mini-table, small Christmas trees can be placed, and New Year’s wreaths and lanterns can be hung. Electric colored garlands are hung around the entire perimeter. They can be supplemented with spruce branches. Garden gnomes, flowerpots with pine cones and snowflakes will look great.

Bedroom

It is not recommended to install bright lights in this room for the New Year. The bedroom is synonymous with romance and intimacy. It’s a good idea to hang figurines of little angels and install a lot of fragrant candles. To feel the magic of the holiday, place a pot with a small thuja, fir or pine tree. The pot is decorated with tinsel, toys, and the walls are decorated with themed appliqués and snowflakes.

New Year's table decoration ideas

It’s not enough to put beautifully decorated and delicious snacks on the table; don’t just stare at the food and bottles of champagne all evening!

But there is no need to overdo it here either. Beauty should not be for its own sake, but to complement communication and your wonderful dinner.

Let's try to use ordinary objects that we have at home, for example, round or cylindrical volumetric transparent vases. New Year is a good way to show off their unusual functionality.

Fill them with balls and/or fir cones, if you have artificial snow, sprinkle on top. In this case, it is better to use several large objects and there is no need to sprinkle a lot of small things at all - it will look tacky and not beautiful.

You can simply put a garland in the bowl, preferably a single-color white one that emits a warm color, it will look much more cozy.

Candlesticks are also made from such flowerpots, but you should keep in mind that the vase must be either very wide or made of thick glass so that it does not burst from the heat.

Let’s put this simple composition in the center of the table, arrange a few spruce branches that will add aroma and magic.

Decorating with flowers is also welcome, which is also quite acceptable for the New Year and very beautiful.

Naturally, our table setting should be festive, with beautiful dishes and napkins.

Choose a white or muted tablecloth so that it does not distract from the main table decor.

New Year's tree decor

Not a single New Year's Eve is complete without a beautiful Christmas tree, so let's not break traditions, decorate it with whatever you want, usually toys. By the way, I have Christmas tree decorations in a separate post.

These can be paper crafts:

And even from cookies or sweets, candies and tangerines:

It’s fashionable now to decorate with ordinary bows:

New Year's composition on the table

A festively decorated Christmas tree alone will not be enough to decorate the interior of a large apartment or private house. In addition to garlands, ribbons and tinsel, tabletop New Year's compositions are widely used as an effective addition. This inexpensive and quick-to-make decor does not have to be large in size in order to take up a minimum of useful space on the countertop or shelf. The defining element here is the vessel for placing decorations.

Options for choosing a container for a tabletop New Year's composition:

basket;
beautiful box;
mug;
wine glass;
vase;
salad bowl;
tray;
small round aquarium.

New Year's composition in a mug

The simplest choice for arranging holiday paraphernalia is a large cup. A heavy ceramic container with small dimensions can withstand the weight of the decor without the risk of overturning on the table at the wrong moment. In a stable mug you can place several spruce branches, shiny balls, pine cones, some artificial snow, beads or candies. An alternative option is a New Year's composition in a glass. The transparency of glassware has its advantages, because bright beads or other small decorations are clearly visible at the bottom of the vessel.

New Year's composition in a box

You can fill small boxes, boxes made of multi-colored cardboard, and bright candy packaging with decor. A popular New Year's composition in a box made of rough wood in eco style. The latter option is optimal for the interior of a chalet, country, Provence. In addition to the gifts of the northern forest, several tangerines and oranges can be placed next to spruce branches and cones. Their orange crust will contrast well against the background of pine needles, improving the festive mood.

New Year's composition in a basket

Wicker wicker perfectly emphasizes eco style. Natural decor in such simple packaging always looks impressive and natural. In a spacious open basket it is easy to place any New Year's compositions, crafts, fir branches, pine cones, candles, and fruits. Instead of citrus fruits, you can use orange-red rowan berries. An interesting ikebana in a winter holiday style will perfectly decorate a coffee table or shelf near the fireplace. If there are no fir branches, use New Year's compositions of candies with champagne.

New Year's composition in a vase

There are a lot of ideas on how to arrange interesting bouquets in a festive style for Christmas. It is not necessary to use piles of pine needles and cones as a base; just a couple of thin green branches will be enough for this purpose for the right accent. Designers have proven many times that with the right arrangement, excellent New Year's flower arrangements are obtained. The most delicate indoor roses look great in bouquets next to traditional winter attributes.

An example of a beautiful New Year's composition in a vase:

A large container can be turned into a lamp or an unusual case, in which it is easy to arrange a piece of a fairy-tale world.
It is better to decorate a simple transparent vase on the outside with a Christmas-style sticker.
To create a snowy background, paint the back wall with washable white acrylic paint.
We place a small toy house of Santa Claus inside.
For illumination we use a Christmas garland.
New Year's compositions will look more impressive if the bottom of the vase is covered with “snow” made from salt.
You can stick snow-covered Christmas trees or miniature bushes into artificial soil.
To illuminate houses, it is convenient to use miniature battery-powered candles.

Ideas for decorating a private home

Unusual

This method has been introduced into all interior styles, from classic to modern. Why not give up plastic in favor of real pine cones and fir branches?

Original

It is better to move away from traditions and decorate the interior according to the plot of a movie or book. Guests of the holiday should also dress up according to the plot. It would be original to abandon the traditional Christmas tree - you can cut a tree in the shape of a dog, because it is a symbol of 2021. We decorate the tree with what the dog likes to eat - toy bones, dog toys, you can make figurines in the shape of the dog itself.

Stylish

To make this New Year stylish and unusual, you need to draw something themed on the windows. There must be a large luxurious Christmas tree, and gift boxes under it. Delicate LED illumination will look stylish.

We decorate the windows in the house for the New Year with our own hands

If you adhere to the rules of design, then it is recommended, just like for a door, two types of window decoration - put on a hat of tinsel, branches or place compositions on the windowsill.

But for a long time we have made drawings on glass and glued snowflakes. These traditions are still alive today.

To make the drawing, if anyone remembers, we used toothpaste diluted in a small amount of water. They also added acrylic paints and made color pictures.

And with the help of stencils you can make an amazing fairy-tale picture on the window. To do this you need:

Dilute the paste with water.
Wet a paper template in water and apply it to the glass.
Take our solution onto a toothbrush and spray it onto the template.
Wait until it dries a little and peel off the paper.

Nowadays, to create such New Year's patterns, they use a white alcohol marker and cans of artificial snow.

Popular articles DIY New Year gift ideas for 2022

In recent years, of course, everything has been simplified and instead of such artistic creations we simply use paper stencils.

Maybe you will like these unusual snowflakes.

Snowflakes, by the way, can not only be glued, but hung on strings like garlands.

You can also make “real” snow above the window.

Once upon a time we threw pieces of cotton wool onto the ceiling on a string of rain, but now we won’t do that, let’s act civilly: roll up a ball of cotton wool and coat it with PVA glue, then string it on a thread with a needle. And in order for all the snowballs to stay in place, you need to make a knot after each one, you can also add beads.

The next photo also caught my attention, I really liked this idea - hanging toys on ribbons on the window, I’ll probably do that

Or it’s even more interesting when the curtain is moved closer to the window, and a pendant with stars is attached in the corner.

New Year's composition in a cup

On the New Year's table, as decoration, you can put compositions that are collected in glass dishes. For example, put together a simple candy arrangement in a glass cup. To do this, pour multi-colored small dragee candies into a cup and place a candle in the center. Tie the cup with a satin bow, and the festive table decoration is ready. On the outside of the cup you can draw a pig with acrylic paints or multi-colored markers or write a New Year's greeting.

A bright composition with a candle in a mug will create a truly magical mood. To make it you need the following materials:

Red flat dish;
White candle;
Large glass mug;
Grape vine;
Fir cones;
Red beads;
Red flower buds.

Stages of composition production:

The vine twigs should be soaked and then made into a wreath.
Place the wreath on a flat dish and place a large glass mug in the center of the wreath.
We fill the free space inside the wreath with cones and spruce branches.
Place a low candle in the mug.
Pour red beads into the mug so that they fill the bottom of the dish.
We decorate the ikebana with flower buds (you can use artificial flowers).

Decoration and serving of the festive table

There are quite a lot of ideas and every year everyone wants to do it in a new way. If you want to create a culinary Christmas tree from fruits, here is a hint on how to make it:

Do you like fruit salads? Refer to this article.

You can scatter pine cones or spruce branches around the festive table.

Or like this:

And about what dishes to put and how to set and set the table, watch the story from YouTube:

Or take advantage of such developments, an interesting presentation, isn’t it?

Christmas panel

A universal and proven option. It can be made using decoupage, quilling or embroidery techniques. The most effective way is to decorate with mosaics. To do this, you can purchase a factory set containing a drawing of a New Year's composition.

Typically, sequins, glass beads, rhinestones and buttons serve as decor for this. A panel based on your own sketches will be more labor-intensive. To create it, cover a plywood sheet with thick fabric, and then draw the outlines of the future composition.

For example, a symbolic bull for next year. To make the bull come out metallic, prepare coins or metallized plates. Arrange them according to your design and place them on glue (if desired, sew them with fishing line through the holes). Framing is up to your taste.

As you can see, New Year's compositions are not just a tribute to fashion. This is a kind of ceremony or common cause for the whole family. Unite, create, share ideas. Celebrate the holiday beautifully!

Getting ready to decorate your home

Beautiful apartment design is one of the main conditions for a successful New Year's Eve

Before starting the exciting task of decorating your own home, prepare everything you need for work , so that later you will not be distracted once again by looking for something.

A standard set of Christmas tree decorations immediately comes to mind. We go shopping to buy toys, garlands, tinsel, rain and other traditional New Year's trinkets.

This is just the minimum that is needed. The solemnity of the interior is impossible without homemade crafts, for the manufacture of which you may need the following items:

Empty glass and plastic bottles . This is an ideal material for creating candlesticks, garlands, compact figures for the Christmas tree and festive table settings.

Decorations made from empty glass and plastic bottles

Textile . Since the fabric wrinkles easily, you need to take care of a dense base or just take felt. We make Christmas tree decorations and garlands from dense material, and bulky toys from soft material.

Old costume jewelry . Which woman has unwanted beads, earrings, bracelets and other accessories? Use them as decor to transform small artificial Christmas trees. And the beads are perfect for decorating candles, candlesticks, New Year's wreaths and more. It will look fashionable and festive at the same time.

Jewelry is a great idea

Pine cones are a universal material for New Year's decorations.

Cinnamon sticks . They can be placed throughout the living space. The aroma emanating from them will add magic to the atmosphere.

Anything can be used as decoration. So, from knitting threads or floss and glue, you can create voluminous compositions in the form of stars and snowflakes, which are hung from the ceiling. To do this, glue a solid silhouette from cardboard and wrap it with threads. The main thing is not to be afraid to fantasize and bring even the most fantastic ideas into reality.

DIY New Year's composition from branches

Both New Year's window decorations and table bouquets can be made from tree branches; this trend is very popular and is not losing ground. For a DIY New Year's composition from branches

they can be painted, decorated with paper, glitter, varnish, or used without any processing at all, but still look amazing. You can see examples of design and decoration of branches in the photographs in this section.

Make a New Year's composition with your own hands

The branches and berries will need to be painted; at home, this can most easily be done using thick paper, such as magazine pages. Fold a large number of sheets overlapping on the surface, lay branches on top, then roll the paper into a bag and spray it inside with aerosol paint with a metallic tint.

When the branches are dry, place them in a jar, but not a simple one, but additionally decorated with golden braid, and add the decor necessary from your point of view.

Winter is often perceived by us as a monochrome time of year, 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 rowan, purple beautiful fruit and rich greenery of conifers.

In winter, even the aromas are thicker and richer. Your bouquet can convey all this! Combine soft, airy cotton and pine cones, bright roses, oranges and spruce branches.

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

Winter bouquet is a real work of art! How could it be otherwise? After all, a winter bouquet often uses not only flowers, but also other natural materials that correspond to the season:

bunches of rowan, beautiful fruit, viburnum
twigs with fruits of snowberry, barberry, rosehip
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 elements and decoration of the bouquet. Choose something that will not freeze or wither quickly, which is what we associate with winter. For example, florists advise choosing flowers of dark shades for your bouquet; they are more durable and even if the petals suffer a little from the cold, it will not be noticeable.

Roses, chrysanthemums, callas, carnations, gerberas, tulips, gypsophila, freesia, hydrangea, snowdrops, and cymbidium are ideal for a winter bouquet.

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

Winter bouquet of cotton, eryngium and roses, brunia.

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

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

A winter composition will have a beautiful shape if you place flowers in it at different angles and at different levels.

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

Choose a container for the composition that matches the style of the 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.

You can choose foam or plasticine as the basis of the composition. This base is suitable for New Year's compositions when it is necessary to secure spruce branches, balls, animal figures, garlands, and install candles.

For single cut flowers, you can use thin narrow vessels (test tubes), which can be easily secured inside the composition.

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

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

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

Lighting design (garlands)

Before we talk about the premises, let's walk around the site. It is fashionable to hang garlands on trees in the garden. It is recommended to purchase an outdoor, protected, frost-resistant garland. And then, let's look at how to decorate your house in an original way for the New Year.

It is better to decorate trees with plain garlands. Extension cords and splitters should be prepared in advance. In any other case, it will be difficult to get a burning trunk and evenly distribute the beam of light across the paws of a spruce tree or the crown of a deciduous tree. It is not necessary to completely fill the tree with fire - restraint is important in everything. Street garlands are not multi-colored, so if several colors are needed, buy two or even three.

The roof of the house, veranda and porch can be beautifully decorated with glowing icicles. They will look great on treetops too. You can also decorate the driveway to your house with the help of lanterns and luminous figures.

Lately, luminous figures have become very popular. They can be purchased ready-made or made with your own hands. The base is a metal frame wrapped in electrical garlands. The facade of the house will look best in festive multi-colored illumination.

In the house, doorways, windows, and doors are decorated with lighting devices. Also, don't forget about the New Year tree. It is not recommended to overdo it - everything needs moderation. A light garland attached to the ceiling will create the effect of a starry sky.

DIY New Year's compositions made from candies

Just giving candy for the New Year is boring and monotonous. It is much more interesting to present New Year's sweet compositions made from candies. You can make a Christmas tree or a Christmas wreath from candies, a New Year's sleigh made from chocolate and candies, an unusual "pineapple" made from a bottle of champagne and candies in shiny packaging.

What you will need for a Christmas candy wreath:

Thick cardboard;
Scissors;
Glue;
New Year's tinsel;
Candies in the shape of bells;
Fir cones;
Satin ribbon.

A DIY New Year's sweet composition of candies is made like this:

Draw a circle on thick cardboard and cut it out using sharp scissors or a stationery knife.
Inside we draw a circle of smaller diameter, and also cut out along the drawn circle.
We attach a ribbon on which the future wreath will be held.
Next, we wind the tinsel all over the wreath so that the tinsel completely covers the cardboard.
In the process of winding the tinsel, we glue the candies.

We decorate the wreath completely with tinsel and candies, and then decorate it with pine cones, Christmas tree balls and any other decor.

Composition in a basket

The basket is an ideal basis for creating any New Year's composition for 2022. Well, let's start creating a New Year's masterpiece with our own hands?

You will need two main components: the basket itself and a floral sponge.

Additionally, you should prepare:

fir branches;
wire;
Christmas decorations;
dried citrus fruits;
bright flowers (such as roses);
fresh foliage (since it’s winter, you can buy it at a flower shop).

If desired, you can use different decor at your discretion.

The floral sponge is moistened with water and placed in the basket. If it does not fit, the edges should be trimmed to a suitable size. Don't forget to put some kind of plate or container at the bottom of the basket into which the water will drain. Now arrange the spruce branches beautifully and press them into the sponge.

Do the same with decorative branches and leaves. Queue for flowers. The composition can be made both with them and without them. It all depends on your wishes.

Prepare other decor. For example, pre-dried dried fruits are securely attached to a wire. Christmas balls are strung on branches and secured.

You can make roses from citrus peels in advance. To do this, cut off the long peel from the fruit and twist it spirally into roses. Secure the resulting flower with a toothpick.

The citrus rose is dried.

Place the decor according to the composition. The result is such beauty with buds.

And here is a variation with Christmas balls.

Composition of scented candles

You will need: white wax candles, cinnamon sticks, rubber band, twine, black satin ribbon, tray, walnuts.

Beautiful winter compositions with your own hands

Modern decorators and florists make stunning compositions from pine cones, branches, candles, berries, small Christmas tree decorations and various natural materials. They look very original and at the same time not intrusive. And when it’s too early to put up a Christmas tree, but you want a holiday, then it’s time to make winter compositions for your home. They can decorate your home all winter, and not just during the New Year holidays.

New Year's compositions with candles

Bouquets and table arrangements are very popular. Such decorations are collected in low round vases of fairly large diameter, reminiscent of ordinary plates.

Large thick candles are placed in the center of the composition, and small fir branches, angels, and small toys are laid out around. Artificial snow or foam balls placed on glue will help you create the illusion of snow on the branches.

Compositions in a box in a natural style

By adding a few cinnamon sticks, pine cones, wooden toys and twig balls, you can create a rustic winter bouquet.

Christmas wreath

A traditional and beautiful New Year's decor is a wreath. Many needlewomen love to make them. They look amazing!

Winter bouquets

This floral New Year's composition is collected in a round gift box and will be a wonderful gift for anyone who has a winter birthday.

A New Year's composition from fir branches can be assembled not only in a round, but also in a square box. Decorate it with all the natural materials you have.

Small white wicker baskets are an excellent basis for a winter bouquet. In this case, it is also better to choose white toys and New Year’s decorations.

Fresh flowers perfectly complement New Year's table arrangements. They last quite a long time in the floral sponge. For a winter bouquet, choose chrysanthemums, roses, and carnations. A bouquet in a hat box looks very charming, and the Christmas tree branches can be replaced with small green thuja branches.

Add dried oranges to your New Year's table compositions with your own hands, and the Christmas aroma will settle in your home for a long time.

Topiary

If you don't plan to put up a Christmas tree this year, you can replace it with topiary. It looks very original, and no less festive.

If you like the natural style and feel sorry for breaking the branches of the Christmas trees, then simply use the branches of trees and shrubs after pruning. Luckily there are a lot of them left in the garden. Clean them, dry them and decorate them with small toys. Let these be knitted snowflakes, then your composition will be very wintry and snowy.

A Christmas nativity scene can be made on a tree cut.

New Year's compositions on the table

On New Year's Eve, your decor of pine cones and candles will perfectly complement the festive table.

There are a lot of ideas for table decoration, and even the simplest will make your holiday table setting more interesting. For example, take a small jar (no more than 0.5 liters), pour salt into it, place a layer of rose hips, and thuja sprigs on top. Your New Year's compositions for 2021 are already ready. Don't forget to place a few dogs nearby and luck will always be by your side.

We also recommend that you make a creative fragrant Christmas tree from pine cones, orange slices and cinnamon. When the decor matches the interior perfectly, a feeling of security is created, the eyes are relaxed and the mood is lifted!

Miniature floral New Year's compositions from pine cones, Christmas tree bouquets, compositions with candles and cones, outlandish decorations from dry branches can be an effective addition to the festive decor or a replacement for a traditional Christmas tree.

Christmas wreath

You will need: a base for a wreath made of foam, floral tape, a glue gun, scissors, spruce branches, artificial snow, decorative elements - twigs with beads, flowers, golden-colored succulents.

Master Class

Cover the wreath base with fir branches and secure with floral tape.
Glue sprigs with beads to one part of the wreath, then add flowers.
Attach golden succulents to the center.
Cover the composition with artificial snow and wait until it dries completely.

The Christmas wreath is ready!

Festive wreath

A wonderful tradition of decorating entrance doors with colorful festive wreaths has come to our country from Europe. They can be hung in the room and in the kitchen, and they can also be used to decorate the New Year’s table, for example, by placing a candle inside.

What you will need:

artificial willow or spruce branches of sufficient length;
gold or silver acrylic paint;
scissors;
strong threads;
glue gun;
ribbons, tinsel, pendants, Christmas tree beads for decoration.

Execution order

Intertwine the branches and roll them into a wreath, securing the ends with hot glue. Tie them tightly with thread.
If you took willow branches, you can paint them with gold or silver acrylic.
Tie the wreath with a ribbon and decorate it with beads and pendants.

If you don't want to work with glue or artificial branches, then take real ones! Attach them to a round floral base soaked in water, add decorations and your living wreath is ready.

Choice of style

When deciding to make New Year's decor with your own hands, ideas for this may be different. It all depends on the general style of the room:

For lovers of the classics, a tall spruce tree with traditional decorations (angels, stars, balls in gold and white tones, beads as garlands) will suit you;
For eco style, crafts made from natural materials, rags, felt, dried fruits will become relevant;
Scandinavian style and high-tech will also look relevant with the “classics”;
Minimalism can be present in any home design, as it involves the use of only a small amount of decor.

It is necessary to take into account not only the interior, but also the size of the room being decorated. Small rooms should not be overfilled with decorative items, as they will interfere with normal life activities. A few noticeable accents will be enough (for example, a Christmas tree, a Christmas wreath, a composition). There is no need to “spray” in such a matter. Small details will steal space, this will not lead to high-quality New Year's decoration.

Many people choose a style for the Chinese New Year, but the decor is different from what we are used to. Red colors predominate in the design; artificial trees are decorated with fresh fruits in sugar and candied fruits. It is customary to place trays with 8 different types of fruits in different corners of the house. But when choosing this style, you need to take into account that the dates of New Year celebrations in our country and China do not coincide, so such a celebration may not be relevant.

Having chosen a design for the New Year, you should pay attention to each piece of decor separately and make sure that it is appropriate.

Let's get into a festive mood

In 2021, preference is given to homemade decor

To create a magical mood for yourself, you need to know the tastes of the coming symbol of the year. The coming 2021 is the year of the Metal Rat, considered a symbol of financial well-being and growth. And she loves everything expensive and spectacular, but at the same time needs comfort.

When planning to decorate your home for the meeting of such a person, you should think through everything and take into account her preferences. Namely, create a luxurious but peaceful environment around yourself. Chaotic decoration with various New Year's attributes will be unacceptable here. The rat obviously won't like it.

When choosing a style, give preference to something like country, rustic or boho chic. The more decor you make yourself, the more favorably the Rat will treat you.

It is advisable to minimize the presence of factory-made decorations in your home, since they are made from “dead” materials, and give preference to those made independently from natural ones.

But all kinds of little animals, angels, stars and textile bows will delight the Rat. Compositions made of wood, pine needles and cones (as in the photo) would be useful. The trend now is to use any natural materials.

We decorate the exterior of the house

Before decorating the rooms, you should prepare for the New Year at the entrance

If you have a country house, then there is room for your imagination to run wild. Be sure to hang the facade of the house, fence and gate with sparkling garlands. Just choose models of lights that will not be afraid of snow and other winter weather conditions. You can hang handmade lanterns on a rope.

Windows can be decorated with beautiful balls Balls and ribbon are an excellent solution Bows with balls We use a garland

The decoration of the garden yard can be anything. These are flowerpots where you place pine branches entangled with bright scarlet ribbons. Metal portable lanterns will look impressive among them, which will help create a charming atmosphere of the upcoming holiday.

If you have time and desire, you can mold some kind of fairy-tale figure out of snow or distribute ice balls everywhere.

It's easy to make them yourself:

Place sparkles, beads and anything else you like inside the balloon.
Then pour water in there
After freezing, remove the rubber film and get a glass ball with decor inside

Decorate the veranda with flowers, garlands and other decor.

We do not ignore the entrance group

A classic wreath of fir branches and balls is hung on the door

Next, move on to transforming the front door. A classic option for all times is hanging a pine wreath with bells. It is advisable to limit this. There is no need to cover the door with tinsel, rain and garlands. It is worth remembering that the Rat loves sophistication, and such chaos will clearly repel it.

If it seems that a wreath is not enough, then decorate the joint with a homemade bow.

Here is a creative selection of ideas for entrance wreaths:

a combination of dry branches and flowers, wine corks, fabric scraps and threads
from an old hanger, which is bent in the shape of a circle and Christmas tree balls or pine cones are strung, or from wire

Step-by-step technology for making a festive wreath from an old hanger

If you don’t like the wreath, cut out the first letter of the family’s last name from cardboard, decorate it with beads and attach it to the door. Or you can just hang a few small New Year-themed figurines.

Or create an image of a snowman on the door - it will be elegant and will definitely appeal to guests. To do this, cut out circles, triangles and other parts from self-adhesive or colored paper, then glue them to the door.

The door with the snowman is amazing

When entering an apartment or house, guests should immediately feel the approach of the New Year. Therefore, do not leave the hallway without decoration, but do not overdo it too much. Place the emphasis on one, maximum two objects.

If you have built-in mirrored cabinets, decorate them with glow-in-the-dark Christmas stickers.

You can hang a panel on the wall instead. A large floor vase with pine branches is placed in the corner. Lay a New Year's rug under the threshold. This is quite enough.

I would like to offer another interesting idea for the hallway - placing a poster on the wall where guests can leave their wishes to the owners of the house in the coming year. This will definitely lift everyone's spirits.

Poster for wishes

The living room deserves special attention

The main celebration will take place in the living room, so pay the most attention to it. Continue to stick to your chosen style and color scheme.

If there is a fireplace in the house, then don’t forget to transform it. Here, use spruce spruce branches, satin ribbons and candles, from which you will make some simple composition. Hang several bells or a garland above the grate (you can buy ready-made ones in the store).

home decoration for the new year

By the way, this year it is better to put colored garlands away and stick to those that shine in one or two colors (gold, red or white).

Homemade lamps that can be placed anywhere

Place lamps on top of the fireplace. It's easy to make them yourself. To do this, place Christmas tree branches, glass balls in tall glass vases and complement this beauty with glowing garlands. You can make small glowing houses in the same way.

An LED strip will help to decorate the ceiling in a festive manner, which must be secured with tape to the walls or closer to the central part. An alternative would be luminescent stickers.

Another option is to hang balls or stars on golden threads around the perimeter, including on a chandelier. But such decorations visually reduce the area of the room, so they are more appropriate for living rooms with high ceilings.

The balls and stars hanging from the ceiling are impressive

As for windows, any ideas are suitable here - both standard and the most unusual. For example, make snowflakes that can be easily cut out of paper napkins. Involve children in this exciting activity, they love it.

If you don’t have time, then do it simpler:

Draw patterns of your choice on paper and cut them out
Place it on the glass
Fill the holes with stained glass paint or toothpaste

The result will be a blurry pattern, like frost. Or you can buy ready-made stickers.

The windows are covered with snowflakes and other figures on the theme.

Don't forget about the window sill. Place spruce or thuja branches, tangerines and pine cones on it. Add a hanging garland with LED lights or a Christmas curtain. Even simple curtains decorated with bright ribbons, bows, rain or garlands will immediately take on a different look and transform the interior.

Even pasta can be used in your creativity

Well, what would New Year be without a beautiful Christmas tree! True, it could be fir or pine. It is not necessary for the wood to be natural - artificial will do just fine. And if the living space does not allow placing this main New Year’s attribute, then they limit themselves to a coniferous bouquet or a compact Christmas tree. You can make miniature Christmas trees yourself and place them around the house.

And you can show your skills in decorating a classic Christmas tree. Any available materials will be useful. In addition to ready-made decorations, use candies, tangerines, homemade crafts, ribbons and New Year-themed cookies. Imitate snow with pieces of cotton wool.

Non-standard version of a Christmas tree on the wall

It is recommended to decorate the Christmas tree in a single color scheme. Even in one color it will look stylish and formal. By the way, for Christmas tree decorations in 2021 you should choose certain colors - beige, white, yellow.

If you prefer restraint, then you need to decorate the tree only with garlands. Instead of the notorious balls, hang multi-colored lanterns.

And if you wish, then make an original decoration from old light bulbs in the form of Santa Clauses, penguins or snowmen, painting them with different paints or pasting them with sparkles, tinsel and other catchy little things.

To work you will need:

unnecessary light bulbs
acrylic paints or nail polishes
stationery glue and colored adhesive with glitter (sold in craft departments)
buttons, beads, ribbons, rain

Christmas tree decorations are easy to make from unwanted light bulbs

As raw materials for Christmas tree decorations, take dough, pine cones and any gifts of nature, fabric scraps, nuts, berries, suitable sized boxes, jars, and so on.

Spoons make beautiful decorations

Christmas decorations made from old aluminum spoons are very unusual. Bend the handle into a loop, and paint the lower part as you wish. If you take wooden spoons and decorate them, they will become decor in your kitchen interior. For the kitchen, it is advisable to choose dishes (cups, plates) with New Year's decorations as decoration.

Setting the festive table

Now we move on to setting the New Year's table. It should be both stylish and impressive. Considering that table decoration requires a minimum of available materials, this process will not take much time.

In this case, you will need New Year's accessories: candles (preferably scented) or garlands, glass balls, textiles and dishes corresponding to the theme, figurines with the symbols of 2021. The design should not sharply contrast with the style of the general New Year's decor around.

Table setting in New Year's style Table setting in New Year's style

Table setting in New Year's style

Choose the same color scheme: red, blue or gold with white or silver.

The center of the New Year's table will be candles. They can be ready-made or homemade. To do this, prepare the forms in advance. Melt the wax and pour it into them, then wait for it to harden. Don't forget to insert the wicks. Cover the resulting wax figures with varnish and decorate with sparkles, rain, beads, ribbons and other elements.

Candlesticks should be metal or transparent, which will effectively reflect the fiery glare. You can place candles in glass glasses with tall stems. It will look original if you cover the champagne container with foil.

Candlesticks play a primary role in setting the New Year's table.

The picture will be unfinished without the right textiles. It is advisable to lay the tablecloth white or some bright color. Nowadays fashion trends when setting a festive table are to choose plain textiles - red, blue, light blue, gold.

If you do not plan to use a tablecloth, then take care of fabric napkins. Any shape and design will do (square, round, openwork, with embroidery and plain).

Creating a New Year's mood in other areas

If the house has a staircase, it can also be beautifully decorated

In addition to the already listed options for New Year's decor, there are many more ideas. If the house is spacious enough and there is a place where your imagination can run wild, then we continue to act in the same direction.

So, don’t forget about gifts for family members and guests. A great and unconventional way to present them is to prepare Santa's socks. They can be knitted, sewn or bought ready-made. Hang this accessory wherever there are hooks.

Don’t forget to place a few socks on the fireplace - in the warmest place in the house. Usually family gatherings take place here on New Year's Eve, and household members will be pleased to receive their gifts this way.

The fireplace is decorated with all kinds of crafts

The Santa Claus sock is a classic of the British genre. This Christmas attribute can be found in every home. Why don’t we adopt this good tradition, especially since it looks cute and New Year’s.

Festive design also includes appropriate decoration of furniture and doorways. Paste self-adhesive pictures on the theme of the upcoming celebration, attach beads or garlands (store-bought or home-made).

Sew chair covers with images of Snow Maidens, Santa Claus, deer and other heroes of the evening. To do this, it is advisable to choose a fabric of white, golden or green color.

Needlewomen certainly won’t have to think long about how to decorate their home for the New Year. The simplest thing that comes to mind is to sew the symbol of the year in the form of a soft toy. It can later become a gift to someone who came to the celebration.

In addition, sew other voluminous creative decorations for both home decoration and gifts. You can make a Rat out of wood, glue a magnet on the inside and attach it to the refrigerator.

Staircases will look spectacular if you hang flickering garlands (luminous or homemade) on the railings. You can add any other decorations based on the New Year theme.

A hand-sewn symbol of the year, the Rat, will be a cute gift, and not just a decoration

Even if the apartment is large, we decorate all the rooms in a new way. The bedroom will be ready for the New Year when you change your regular bed linen to New Year's. On the bed, as well as in the living room on the sofa and armchairs, place themed pillows with corresponding scenes.

The design of a children's room must follow certain rules.

So, for kids they will be as follows:

all decorative elements are hung higher so that the child cannot reach them
It is undesirable to use jewelry of small sizes and made of glass
if you plan to decorate the room with garlands, then choose safe ones
When installing the Christmas tree, be sure to secure it firmly, and hang soft toys, fruits, sweets and homemade decorations made from natural materials on it

Fairytale children's room

It is important to think through every detail taking into account the gender of the child. So for boys, minimalism in the interior, for example, in blue and light blue shades, will be preferable. This applies not only to the Christmas tree, but also to decorations in the form of toys. A bright red color would also work.

Twinkling lights throughout the room will create a magical atmosphere

But girls need a different approach, since they are princesses. So, it’s better to make a Christmas tree yourself and decorate it with any shiny accessories: rain, tinsel, beads, silk ribbons, serpentine. It would be a good idea to hang New Year’s drawings on the walls, made by the child himself in kindergarten or at home.
