A holiday is always a special event in the life of a family. I would like to create an atmosphere of warmth, comfort and celebration. To do this, many housewives resort to unusual tips from online resources, and some try to decorate the table and house with their own hands.
Concept selection
It’s good when you know in what style the holiday will be held. But for those who have not yet decided, it is important to approach this moment consciously.
1. Think of all the guests. Party "a la we are on barbecue" is unlikely to appeal to people who prefer veggie food.
2. Consider age accessories. Of course, it’s wonderful when the whole family gathers at the table: grandparents, aunts and uncles, brothers and sisters, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. But this imposes a great responsibility on the owners of the house, because the decoration of the table and the organization of the holiday should be appropriate.
3. Stick to your mood. Many stylists advise adding bright colors to the interior in the winter season, preferring positive attributes, colors and leaves. Decorating the table with flowers on March 8 can be a great omen for spring and will definitely give a sea of positive mood to guests.
4. Conciseness is one of the best principles for decorating any table. No need to try to throw snowflakes on the New Year's table so that it is impossible to find a single dish. Everything should be in moderation.
5. It is wonderful if table decoration will be in harmony with the overall interior of the apartment. It’s hard to imagine how the Hawaiian party will take place on old baroque chairs.

Place a few small lamps on the table so that the light is soft and dim. You can use special diffusers. It is better to purchase disposable dishes in the same style.
Children's birthday
Your child’s holiday will be unforgettable if you dream together. Ask your beloved child what exactly he wants for his birthday to see on the table. A good idea would be to cook napkins for plates together. If the child knows how to sew, then you can make patches from old rags in the form of trees, houses, grass and the sun. There is no limit to fantasy. With a younger child, you can repeat all this, only in the format of multi-colored clippings glued to paper. This will not only help brighten up your everyday life, but also leave great emotions in the memory of the child.

Autumn holidays
Any celebration during the period of colorful foliage, flowers and the sun is wonderful. In the fall, I want to keep this colorful mood, because there is a long gray winter ahead. On your table, it is better to give preference to gold and yellow shades. For example, small decorative pumpkins, covered with gold paint, will delight you long after the guests leave. Autumn leaves along with flowers can remain in the vase until spring. You can add a few bright spots to the table in the form of berries or branches of mountain ash. Golden beads, fastening devices, and napkins will only complement this harmonious image of autumn on your table. And finally, you can cut maple leaves from napkins - this is also an attribute of the holiday.
March 8
Women's Day is a holiday of spring, love and happiness. Many men do not want to suffer for a long time this day with table decoration. It is very convenient in this case to apply minimalism. A bright tablecloth in multi-colored stripes will mark the beginning of an excellent mood. Anyone can make a table decoration on their own on March 8, for this you need a package of colored paper and your desire to surprise your beloved. Even a child knows how to make tulips out of paper, and those who are not confident in their abilities will easily find a hint in the workshops.
An original tablecloth and a bouquet of tulips made by yourself is the key to an excellent holiday. And devices tied with a green ribbon will remind you of the imminent spring. Add a beautifully packaged gift to the table - the holiday is ready!
February 23
Men's holiday involves a lot of meat products and snacks on the table. And the decoration should be appropriate, without any girlish flowers, hearts and little things. A gun from cucumbers, olives and potatoes will look good as a decoration of the main dish. You can decorate each dish with such an army style, but you can only have snacks. Get napkins of army color scale and put a logo on them (for example, airborne forces or any other). Table decoration on February 23 should not be catchy and artsy, 2-3 accents are enough - men will appreciate it.
New Year
Every year on December 31, people gather at the festive table in anticipation of a miracle. That is why table decoration should be fabulous, family and cozy. A great idea would be a table in red and green tones. Snowflakes from napkins and a tree from tangerines will surely present a festive mood to guests. Do not forget about candles - comfort and warmth in the house. Ancient artsy candlesticks add fabulousness.
With your own hands you can make unusual holders for devices and napkins from wire and red beads. Decorating the table with napkins in the form of snowflakes will add romance.
The composition of Christmas tree branches and toy balls of different diameters in the center of the table is an integral attribute of the New Year.
You can sew snowmen, Santa Clauses, snowflakes and bullfinches on the tablecloth - all this will complete the fabulous image of your holiday.
Do not forget about New Year's dishes, it is also better to decorate them with greens or slices of carrots and beets. And a small surprise handmade box for each guest can be a pleasant surprise.
Photo decoration of the table can be saved and turn the interior into an annual tradition. Every year you can supplement it with new products.
Table decoration is always a very thoughtful process. Women relate to this with trepidation and love, trying to turn any detail into a pleasant trifle. You need to understand that the everyday atmosphere is also important. Do it yourself with some attributes for a daily meal that will create warmth and comfort. For example, a beautiful vase for sweets, painted together, or sewn napkins will help create a sense of celebration every day.
