Begin to create a holiday

To decorate a drawing room for the coming of the New Year is very interesting and exciting: childhood is recalled, a festive mood, dreams, hopes and plans for the next twelve months. And most importantly, adults and children can participate in the decor of the living room.

First of all, so that the festive vanity does not take the situation into its own hands and turn it into chaos, it is necessary to compile plan of events to decorate the room, in which the winter celebration will be held.

So, in advance it will be necessary to think over the number and assortment of holiday accessories, their color range, style and theme. If the ornaments are not yet in the house, and they are only to be bought, it is better to take with them to the photo shop the rooms made from different angles in order to more clearly represent what will be hung and where to be hung, supplied and attached. Otherwise, coming home, you can find that one of the corners of the room will remain "naked."

Choosing a decor, remember that to decorate the living room you can use anything you like:

• ready-made purchased toys;
• New Year's retro jewelry, carefully preserved by parents or grandmothers;
• glowing garlands and LED lighting;
• nodogod's ni-maid;
• finished decor, improved with their own hands (for example, single-color Christmas balls, hand-painted).

In the last few years, it has become fashionable to decorate a room in the same style, material and color. For example, only the decor of felt white and blueberry. But it is quite permissible, and it is necessary to use fresh ideas for decorating a fireplace for the new year. For example, decorate it with popular New Year bouquets, eekbans using fir branches, other original compositions. Or create and hang a fireplace over the fireplace from:

• wooden sticks laid out in the form of a Christmas tree;
• various vintage items and old beads;
• photos collected from New Year's holidays of different years;
• hangers for clothes of green color;
• just a rain, laid out with tiers and fixed in the form of a Christmas tree.

Color scheme of the festive extravaganza

Living room with a cozy fireplace will become even more cozy if you decorate correctly choose the color of the celebration and support it in every detail of the festive decor. Various color solutions will add a different mood to the evening and create different shades of the living room atmosphere.

There are ready-made color and shade arrangements of jewelry, selected by professional designers and decorators. So, the classic combinations of colors are a duo of red and green, as well as red and gold. But this is by no means the canons.

For example, you can create something in between these two options and decorate the fireplace around the perimeter with a garland created from green fir branches, interlaced with a silver ribbon and decorated with Christmas angels. It will look very gentle and fabulous, and will surely appeal to children. Moreover, the decoration is not at all complicated, and they will also be able to take part in its manufacture.

If a classic red-green scheme is chosen which is easiest to embody, you can decorate the fireplace top with two plastic flasks (or high smooth vases) filled with alternating red and green balls.

Gentle and "snowy" will look in the living room decorations in white, many of which can be made independently:

• pompons of woolen thread;
• cut from paper or crocheted snowflakes;
• confetti of white paper, imitating snow;
• snowmen from pressed pieces of cotton wool or balls of thread of different sizes.

Stylishly look combinations of red with silver, blue with silver, white with blueberry and white with silver.

Perfect details

The festive decor of the living room is particularly noticeable in detail. Therefore, it is necessary to give them maximum attention and not to underestimate their role in creating a New Year's atmosphere.

So, though borrowed from the Western tradition, New Year's gift bowls will also look good in our fireplaces. They can be purchased or sewed alone, and filled with sweets, small toys, invitations to the circus or other children's event.

Also, festive wreaths look good in the New Year's interior. One of them can be hung on the front door, and the other on the fireplace.

Effectively, the compositions from dry branches covered with glue and lavishly sprinkled with sparkles will look. They can hang Christmas balls, pendants made of felt, large and small beads, snowflakes or colored candy on strings.

The traditional New Year decoration is a candle. Compositions of candles of different size and thickness will effectively complement. Simple and festive will look like three white candles, mounted on a platter with nuts. Part of the nuts can be covered with gold paint and wrapped in foil.

A composition with candles and a glass will look stylish and refined. So, on the festive table put a lump or a Christmas ball, on top of the selected object covered with a glass on the basis of which a broad candle is placed.

In addition, for the decor, you can use traditional fruit on the New Year's table. So, if you cut the peel from the orange in a circle with a thin strip, and lay it in the shape of a flower, adding more dried flowers and spices (cinnamon sticks, anise stars), you can get an original and very fragrant decor, which can then be used for desserts and Christmas pies .

Whichever way to decorate the living room has been chosen, the main thing is that the decoration of the room gives pleasure, that it be done with pleasure and soul. Then the holiday will be held in a very calm, home-like cozy and soulful atmosphere. What do you think about it?
