Decorate the Christmas tree
Creating the design of the New Year’s interior with your own hands, you can’t forget about the main decorative element - the Christmas tree. It doesn’t matter if an artificial or real beauty will decorate the house and the holiday, the main thing is that she be. But in order for the Christmas tree to stand out in the interior, you should determine its place and decorate it. Wherever a green beauty is placed, a special New Year's rug can be put under it. Such products are most often round in shape, with a diameter of one meter to two. You can buy a rug in the store, or you can do it yourself - it will not require much labor and special sewing skills.
Two circles of the required diameter are cut out from a dense plain fabric (white or blue), in the middle of each of them a hole is cut under the trunk of the Christmas tree. From the middle of the circle to the edge, the fabric is cut. This is where the mount will be located, connecting the mat after installing the Christmas tree. On one element there will be a front side where the application decorating a rug is laid out. Perhaps the drawing will be prepared by a child, or perhaps found in a book or on the Internet. But, undoubtedly, it will be something New Year's. Applications can be bought ready-made, or you can cut parts from felt or dense fabric. All elements are carefully sewn, decorated with beads, sequins, sparkles, rhinestones, buttons. Then the two circles are joined and stitched together.
After this, the edge is braided. The place of the cut for fastening can be decorated with ties, or just sew on adhesive tape. The Christmas tree mat is ready.
Flashlights
The feeling of a holiday comes when the whole family decorates the New Year’s interior with their own hands. Ideas come in all sorts. Perhaps a grandmother from her childhood will remember something - for example, how to make paper lanterns. This simple, simple decoration looks very beautiful. To do this, the colored paper is folded in half, cuts are made from the fold side, but not completely - an inch of uncut paper should remain to the edge. When the whole strip is ready, the folded sheet is opened, the narrow edges are glued together. Such flashlights can be hung anywhere - in the kitchen and in rooms, on cornices and chandeliers.
