How to decorate a house with your own hands

1. Retro

Turning to antiquity is the main trend of New Year’s fashion in 2009. If Christmas tree decorations, then old bunnies with drums, red caps, bullfinches and five-pointed stars. Instead of screaming garlands – laconic multi-colored beads, lace, “rain” and serpentine. Papier-mâché masks, cotton wool instead of snow, the smell of tangerines and sparklers that makes your heart flutter … We don’t think you need to explain what the New Year is.

Fashionable colors – snow white, warming red and purple. Pale pink and pale blue are also relevant.

2. New look

New materials, technologies, sources of light and brilliance! LED garlands, shine of steel and transparency of glass, plastic balls with a glossy finish. Practicality first of all – forget about the smell of needles and breakable toys, the actual tree is made of cardboard or, at best, flickering fiber. If you think that black and New Year are not compatible, you are deeply mistaken …

3. Luxury

A Christmas tree can also be a status thing. Size matters, of course, but more is what hangs from the branches. And there are handmade balls, icicles made of Murano glass, soft snowflakes made of velvet and organza with beads and sequins. Glitter is provided by gold and rhinestones. Instead of garlands – natural candles. Christmas trees “haute couture”, decorated with fresh flowers, feathers and pearls (similar can be found in the company Mister Christmas). As a finishing touch – a music box and a collectible porcelain doll.

4. Hello tree!

The coming year – the year of the Ox, must be met according to the rules. Natural materials should prevail in the decor and decoration of the festive table. On the tree – cones and tangerines, felted wool beads. In vases – compositions of branches and dried flowers. An evergreen Christmas wreath will also come in handy, just like potpourri and scented pomanders. The dishes on the table should be made of clay or wood. And let the guests not be surprised if they find Khokhloma spoons next to the plates.

5. Hand-mead

Preparing for the New Year’s celebration is a good old ritual that must be remembered this year. Nobody forces you to make Christmas tree toys from cotton wool, but to make Greeting Cards, cut paper snowflakes on the windows and wrap walnuts in foil and hang them on the tree – God himself commanded. By the way, gingerbread cookies can become scented Christmas decorations just like crocheted pom-poms. An option for the lazy – Christmas balls with a painting under Khokhloma and an ornament imitating cross-stitch embroidery can be found at New Year’s bazaars.

6. New year out of nothing

How to make a holiday out of thin air? The alchemical transformation of a light bulb into a delightful Christmas ball, and a date palm into a New Year tree – in a word, the search for and finding “golden ideas” in the environment is one of the most topical New Year trends of this season. So, if you go to the dacha to celebrate the New Year there, you definitely cannot do without invention and a sense of humor! Do you know how to decorate a Christmas tree without Christmas tree decorations? No? We will tell you!
