New Year without a tree is not a New Year! But what if there is simply nowhere to put it? It turns out that there is a solution: in every home or office there is an empty wall on which you can build a pretty Christmas tree from scrap materials! Find a suitable option for yourself on the Internet or use the advice of our designer Alisa Ponizovskaya - she made all the Christmas trees for you with her own hands!

Indeed, what if you want a Christmas tree, but the apartment is tiny, or at work there is no place for a large tree? A free wall is ideal for placing a Christmas tree: abandoning its traditional look, you get a real art object, made by yourself and delighting your friends! You can create such a tree from almost everything that is at your fingertips - there are no restrictions on materials, as well as there are no restrictions on height, it all depends on your imagination!

The easiest option is a tinsel tree, it can be done in any color, for example, to match your interior. You will need a double-sided duct tape, it is better to take not a thin transparent one, but a dense white one - it adheres well to the wall and does not leave marks! Cutting off small sticky pieces, attach the tinsel to the wall, starting from the top of the head, try to make the branches more or less symmetrical (you can draw the outline of the Christmas tree in advance with a pencil).

If one fluffy outline is not enough for you, the Christmas tree can be dressed up! With the help of special hooks or unbent paper clips, hang some Christmas tree decorations on the "branches" - they should be medium-sized and not heavy, otherwise the tinsel will come off the wall.

In the same way, you can make a Christmas tree from a glowing garland., the only difference is that it is more convenient to fix it with pins. First, make a contour of buttons on the wall (if they go tight, use a small hammer or something heavy that you have at hand), and then pull a garland over the buttons. The reverse order of actions in this case is excluded - if you attach the garland itself with buttons, you can damage the insulation, and jokes with electricity are bad! Now we light it up - magically!

Why not make the tree ... wooden? Are they cutting trees in your yard? Ask them to cut small, thin circles for you! Wood cuts can also be purchased at florist shops. To each circle with a furniture stapler we attach a small loop of colored braid and use the buttons to place it on the wall.

This Christmas tree can be of any size., if you managed to get quite small round pieces, you can even make it in the form of a postcard and give it to one of your friends or put it on the table in the office. Glue the cuts on the cardboard - this time it will be more convenient to use glue, the only thing is to do it in advance and put your souvenir under the press so that nothing falls off at the most crucial moment!

A mini Christmas tree for a postcard can also be made from buttons- they are in almost every home, the hand usually does not rise to throw these treasures away! Choose buttons that are convex and shiny so that the tree is as elegant as possible, you can fasten them using soft double-sided adhesive tape, or simply sew on a cardboard - to be sure of the result!

A beautiful Christmas tree can be cut out of paper - it does not have to be green, feel free to take any wrapping one, we, for example, used a striped one. Fold the paper vertically in half and cut out the outline of one side of the tree, if in doubt as to the result, first draw it with a ruler. Now we unfold and attach to the wall, you can use small adhesive pads for this purpose, and nothing will happen to your exquisite wallpaper! You can decorate such a Christmas tree with small toys or wooden saw cuts already familiar to us.

In general, in this case, absolutely anye items- the male part of our friendly team decided that the best decoration striped tree will become a fan scarf with Paolo Maldini! We, of course, did not object - it turned out original!

And they decided to make the next option out of all sorts of nonsense.: they took artificial flowers, took off their decorations, asked the children to bring some Christmas-tree beads and toys, including those made with their own hands, added something else that came to hand, and this is what an amazing and beautiful Christmas tree we have!

Well, if you decide to spend holidays outside the city, you probably have two or three wonderful slats left over from the construction site. You will need one long one for the trunk, and a few more short ones. For example, our long rail turned out to be 50 cm long, and we sawed the small ones in this way: two (for the lower branches) 30 cm each, two (for medium branches) 20 cm each, and the rest - 10 cm each (as much as enough racks!). If the house is wooden, the slats can be nailed to the wall with small nails, and if you also have a cool renovation in your country house, then you will probably find a piece of plywood or drywall of a suitable size that you will not mind using for art experiments. To natural wood it looked more spectacular, we pasted over the surface under the herringbone with the remnants of black wallpaper, and planted brilliant birds of paradise on the branches.

And one more option is a brutal, purely male Christmas tree made of ordinary pieces of wood, selected in size and tied by a sea knot into a ladder. Have you put on a barbecue? Quickly take the remaining unclaimed pieces of wood, the coarser rope and knit just such a beauty!

There is a paradox at work here - the uglier and coarser the source materials, the more unexpected and effective the result! You can hang such an art object both inside the house and outside. Ladies wanted glamor - decorate your tree with beads or an electric garland, if, of course, there is a socket nearby!

Christmas tree on the wall - quite worthy alternative the traditional approach to Christmas decorations. Create a New Year tree with your own hands, and let it create a festive, magical mood for both you and your loved ones!

Before the New Year is very little, but in our souls and hearts already now it is slowly settling festive mood... Shop windows are gradually dressing up in bright tinsel, green beauties appear one after another near cafes and social institutions. Looking at this shimmering splendor, you involuntarily think about decorating your own home.

I want to do so christmas decor bright, memorable and not the same as always! Moreover, the pages of the Internet and glossy magazines are full of various ideas and recommendations. And here the main thing is not to overdo it. It is important to remember that even in such a creative and exciting business as decorating a house for the New Year, you need to adhere to some rules. Here are 10 common mistakes we make when dressing up our apartment.

Through the thorns to your own image

Let's start with feng shui, which many adhere to, trying to harmoniously arrange their own home. Ancient Chinese philosophy, popular today, prohibits hanging decorations over the bed and over the mirror, as this can lead to conflicts and disappointments. Yes, and sometimes it looks, frankly, ridiculous.

Artificial instead of natural

Feng Shui experts categorically prohibit bringing a felled Christmas tree into the house and advise replacing it with an artificial one. And the point is not at all that they are ardent defenders of nature. In their opinion, a dead (felled) tree can bring trouble to the house. That is why the Chinese were the first in the world to make artificial flowers. A cut bouquet, they believe, does not bring good luck. "What is the New Year without the smell of pine needles?" - we are indignant. But here, too, the resourceful Chinese offer a reasonable solution - an air freshener with the smell of pine needles. Moreover, in last years products of Christmas tree craftsmen are quite difficult to distinguish from natural green beauties. And the ugly cross at the bottom can be decorated with colorful rain.

Dress the entire table

According to the rules of the festive tablecloth, the tablecloth should cover the whole table, hanging on all sides equally, by 20-30 centimeters. The exposed corners look ridiculous and defenseless. You just want to cover them up with something, or at least force them. Don't skimp on fabric - get a tablecloth of the right size.

Red is not always beautiful

The color red is known to symbolize well-being and the breadth of the soul. He also adds solemnity and presentability to any atmosphere. Therefore, when creating a festive decor, many people prefer this particular color. This is especially true for decorating the festive table. Indeed, the red table looks elegant, but you should not overload the serving with it. For example, ribbons tying up coniferous bouquets, napkins, candles can be red, but in this case it is better to choose a white tablecloth. Otherwise, all of your festive table setting will merge into one blurry picture.

Prickly treat

Another important point to avoid when serving New Year's table, is a green beauty, installed on it, right among the dishes with salads and transparent glasses. And the point is not at all that the tree will take up too much space (although this is also the case). It is just that the needles can get caught in the plates and spoil the impression of a carefully prepared treat. Spruce, pine or juniper branches can be present on the table only in the form of various compositions.

Lonely rain

For some reason, we try to hang the New Year's rain everywhere: on curtains, mirrors, interior doors. Meanwhile, the rain itself looks rather sluggish. Therefore, it is advisable to dilute even the rain beautifully laid out on shelves, photo frames and cabinets with serpentine and other elements of New Year's decor.

Burning beauty

Never decorate the tree with burning candles! Dry needles can flare up at any second, and in a minute the whole green beauty will blaze. You won't even have time to react. It is unlikely that such a New Year's fireworks will bring you positive emotions. For the same reason, do not overuse luminous garlands.

House in wires

Agree, the room, around the entire perimeter of which electric wires are stretched, does not look very good. Therefore, before hanging the electric garland, be sure to make sure that there is an outlet nearby. It is especially worth paying attention to this if there are children in the house.

Traumatic decoration

The happy owners of bunk apartments and spacious houses have a huge scope for New Year's fantasies, each of which they strive to bring to life. But here, too, it is important not to overdo it. Don't forget about basic safety rules! The staircase belongs to the category of the most traumatic objects, so you should not decorate its railings with garlands or Christmas tree branches.

Chaos on a stick

Finally, let's talk about the main character of the New Year's celebration - the tree. It is quite understandable the desire of each of us to decorate green beauty as brightly as possible by hanging on it all the decorations in the home arsenal. After all, New Year is so rare, and there are so many toys! So we are trying to dress her up in all this splendor. Of course, chaotically hung toys, rain and tinsel will do their job. But individuality in this matter also does not hurt. Letting you into your home new year's tale, leave behind the threshold 10 mistakes in the design of holiday decor! And let your New Year be really happy and really stylish!

Wonderful New Year's souvenir can be faux Christmas tree made of tinsel. Such a beauty can be presented as a gift, in addition, it can perfectly fit into the interior of any room.

In the first master class, the process of making a Christmas tree from Whatman paper and tinsel will be described. For work, you will need about two meters of tinsel, a sheet of Whatman paper, a pencil, scissors and glue.

First of all, on a sheet of Whatman paper, you need to outline the contours of a circle with a radius of about twenty-five centimeters, but only half of the designated circle should be cut, because such a semicircular part is needed in order to make the base of the Christmas tree. The edges of the cardboard part must be overlapped and the seam must be secured with glue.

After the cardboard base is ready, you need to apply glue to the surface of the base and glue the tinsel in a circle. Beads and bells can be attached to tinsel as decorations.

The base can also be made of paper, in which case we need a sheet of paper, scissors and glue.

To make a frame for future branches, pieces of thin wire must be twisted in a spiral and wrapped around the trunk. Then the tinsel should be fixed to the wire frame.

How to make a Christmas tree from tinsel and candies

For work, you will need a sheet of cardboard, candy in bright wrappers, tinsel, scotch tape and scissors.

First, you need to form the base of the future Christmas tree in the shape of a cone from a sheet of cardboard. Then, the candies should be attached to the surface of the base using adhesive tape in loose rows. Then all the gaps must be closed by wrapping the base with tinsel.

Wall option
