With the approach of winter, you involuntarily think about transforming the interior, because how else to create a festive mood for yourself and your home? In the New Year 2020, it is necessary to decorate the Christmas tree especially lavishly so that the Rat Protector is satisfied. It is advisable not to follow the beaten path, but to show creativity and imagination using the most unexpected materials at hand. This approach will surely appeal to the thrifty and enterprising rodent.
In the new year with eco-style.
Green trends are becoming more relevant with every season. Why not abandon the living forest beauty in favor of a needlework design that successfully replaces it? This solution has several advantages at once:
- you can use the whole family in the manufacture of the main New Year's symbol;
- significantly saving the budget;
- it turns out the original decoration of the interior, which, no doubt, will delight others;
- the life of at least one tree will be saved.
The easiest way is to make a wall panel-tree from branches. They can be found in the park or purchased at flower shops. We cut the branches into 4 parts so that each subsequent one is slightly shorter than the previous one. If you add the resulting fragments on a plane, you get a pyramid.
We twist in our branches from two sides screws-hooks with a loop. We will mount our structure on them. We screw another similar loop in the center from the back.
It remains to connect the branches with a strong rope, which, stretched, will turn into a silhouette of a Christmas tree. We hang the “miracle tree” on the wall, decorate it with an improvised snowflake-top of small twigs connected by a twine. Add some toys and enjoy the result.
But how else can you dress up an eco-tree in 2020 (see photo):
Developing the idea, it is worth trying to make an unusual New Year tree from a palette.
Balls and Void
An alternative to wall constructions are voluminous imitations of festive spruce. This is another fashion trend - toys suspended in the shape of a New Year tree, but without it. The support can be anything: from a transparent mesh from a fishing line to a folding ladder. The innovation has already been called the "invisible Christmas tree" and is successfully used to decorate storefronts or home interiors.
It’s quite possible to make a bright “pendant” with your own hands. You will need:
- steaming grid;
- strong fishing line;
- carabiner hooks to hang toys.
We attach fishing line fragments of different lengths to the grid with hooks and carbines. We hang the structure on a chain or a strong rope. And we decorate with balls of the same color so that the pyramidal shape is better "read" in space. Closer to the center will be Christmas balls on a short fishing line, and on the edges - on a long fishing line.
New Year Food Florist
Fashion for bouquets of products did not pass the festive winter compositions. In 2020, it is worth decorating the tree with fruit - the economic Rat will appreciate such a decision. Apples and oranges will cost less than Christmas tree decorations, and households and guests will be happy to enjoy vitamins “right from the tree”.
It turns out very exotic fragrant Christmas trees made of tangerines in the Italian style. For their manufacture, you need to take a foam cone, wrap it with foil and cover it with dense, long-not-fading greens of curly-leaved cabbage.We fix tangerines on top of toothpicks. The composition is placed on a fruit bowl vase with a flat bowl and decorate the New Year's table.
Also, a “tasty” symbol of the New Year can be made from sweets or, for example, gingerbread.
Fashion traditions
No matter how interesting the creative ideas are, many people want to decorate the Christmas tree "the old fashioned way" for the New Year 2020: with classic tinsel, toys and luminous garlands. It is quite possible, but it is worthwhile to adhere to some trends, so that the efforts made really justify themselves.
American style - labels and frames instead of toys
Today, large-scale decor is relevant, which on the one hand allows you to dispense with a minimum number of elements, and on the other, it looks very stylish. You can hang various toppers with good wishes on the spruce branches or images of the patron animal of the year. If there are small children in the house, they will be able to learn the alphabet for the winter holidays.
The inscriptions are combined with large textile bows, artificial flowers, stars and snowflakes.
Family photos within the framework that replace traditional balls and glass figures look no less impressive. You can demonstrate all the achievements for the year, carefully captured in the pictures. Remembering the brightest moments, family members will feel what durable threads connect them and feel the warmth, warming in any cold.
Scandinavian minimalism
Laconic decorations that do not hide the natural charm of a living Christmas tree, the color scheme limited to 2 to 3 close shades, the lack of unnecessary shine and excessive pretentiousness ... Those who are close to such trends will be happy to let in an ageless and always fashionable Scandinavian style.
This year, in addition to the traditional combination of white with red, it is proposed to include in the festive palette:
- silver, blue-green and white shades in different combinations;
- the ink scale is not gloomy at all, but very elegant;
- purple and dark blue with gold.
Using the “warm” and cozy felted decor, it's time to recall the symbol of 2020 and “settle” a charming mouse family on fluffy branches. You can come up with a whole story about these funny animals and tell it to the kids. Don't like mice? Nobody canceled the more familiar figures of New Year's deer. They are especially good on paired Christmas trees, which also became the trend of this season.
Noble metal
It's not about gold, but about silver, or rather about the trendy silver gamut. Choosing it for the New Year tree, you can demonstrate a special respect for the metal Rat. And she, in turn, will not leave the good deeds of sincere admirers.
Lush, monochrome decor and Christmas tree branches covered with artificial snow is another bright trend of the coming year.
Air tapes
Is it possible to decorate a Christmas tree with a minimum number of toys, but to make it look luxurious? With the help of ribbons made of thick fabric or decorative floral mesh this is not difficult at all. Wide textile strips are attached to the top of the tree, and then lowered vertically down, threading between the branches.
It turns out a simple but very elegant drapery in the spirit of Victorianism. The English style still serves as a model for European and American decorators, so why not borrow this wonderful trick from them?
Ribbons occupy a large surface, so you will need very few other decorations. Here is the result:
You can arrange the tape diagonally:
Or horizontally:
In any case, you can save on the decor without compromising the appearance of the festive tree.
