With the New Year approaching, for some reason I always want to do something with my own hands. This is probably left over from childhood. Another question is that there is not always enough time to be creative... But this year we encourage you to find a couple of hours in order to make wonderful New Year bouquets for yourself and your family and friends. Such a stylish and beautiful gift can well replace a Christmas tree, which is especially important for small apartments. A DIY New Year's bouquet is not only easy, but also very exciting!

In this article:

What could a New Year's bouquet look like?

In fact, we are limited only by our imagination; everything that you consider beautiful and appropriate can be included in a festive New Year’s composition. But still, there are several main types:

Where can such a craft be placed? There are a lot of design options! The bouquet can resemble a classic floral one and be wrapped in craft paper, thick canvas or paper with a themed holiday print. You can place the composition in a wicker basket or gift box, or put compact bouquets in or in a beautiful mug.

Instead of a Christmas tree, a New Year's bouquet can be quite large; decorate it with Christmas tree decorations and a garland with small lights.

What is required to create a composition for the New Year?

Once you have decided on the components of the composition and its placement, it’s time to collect all the necessary components and auxiliary materials.

To preserve crafts with living twigs for as long as possible, place them in a floral sponge, which can be found in specialized flower shops. Simply moisten the sponge generously with water. If you are using spruce or pine branches, you can moisten the sponge in a solution of water, aspirin and a drop of sugar (1 tablet per 1 liter of water). This way they will last longer. Or put the bouquet in a vase (wine glass, mug,...) with water or the solution described above.

Also for creativity you will need:

• Wooden skewers (tangerines are strung on them, pine cones and sweets are glued on them);
• Glue gun/glue;
• Jute twine;
• Ribbons, bows, corrugated paper;
• Any decorative elements at your request (artificial snow, sparkles, tinsel, garlands, etc.)

Preparations for New Year's creativity

Before you start creating a New Year's composition with your own hands, you need to think carefully and select all the necessary materials. The most popular in festive winter bouquets and compositions are:

1. closed pine and spruce cones, which help set the desired tone of the composition and create texture
2. spectacular cedar cones for decoration
3. open lush Christmas tree cones
4. natural dry or artificial bunches of rowan and viburnum for bright accents
5. pomegranate fruits, as a symbol of life and fertility, and simply to create a festive mood
6. vines and thin flexible twigs give the composition a rustic flair and also serve as an excellent basis for arrangement
7. wreath - the perfect shape for a hanging Christmas arrangement
8. natural and artificial branches of coniferous trees (spruce, pine, fir) - the main symbol of the New Year holidays
9. dried tomatoes - for piquancy

Having been inspired by the idea of ​​​​creating an original festive composition for the New Year, you will have another wonderful reason to go with the whole family to the forest... to hunt! Only we will not hunt for little bunnies and other living creatures, but for all sorts of things: useful and useless, beautiful and wonderful... everything that can be useful for our New Year's creativity. The walk promises to be exciting! At such moments, looking out for special twigs and cones, you feel like some kind of witch-witch, selecting magical ingredients for her witchcraft rituals, or maybe like a good sorceress or a forest nymph...

If you are lucky, during a forest treasure hunt you will be able to get colorful bunches of rowan and viburnum, which the birds have not yet had time to feast on. Look around! Real treasures are right under your feet and under your nose! This, at first glance, the most ordinary and inconspicuous bump in your hand-made masterpiece can become a Christmas tree or a funny hedgehog. And the tinder fungus can make a wonderful vase-stand. Walks like these are a great way to develop your imagination!

The basis for the New Year's composition can be dry branches, bark, decorative pieces of roots, sections of tree trunks, gnarled vines, metal pallets and trays, ceramic and glass vases, a frame made of wire or rods, pieces of foam plastic.

Perfect for the arrangement are pine and spruce branches, mossy branches, dry larch and linden branches, decorative branches of berry bushes with preserved fruits, dry roots, flowers and herbs, dried fruits, berries and vegetables, as well as fresh flowers - cut or in pots, moss.

Additional materials that may be useful are glue, nails, plasticine, sand, thin wire, needle holders, floral sponge, test tubes, small containers, Christmas tree decorations and candles, satin ribbons, serpentine, rain and other tinsel.

It wouldn’t hurt to stock up on spray cans with silver, gold and white paint for a chic New Year’s sparkle. You can gold and silver branches, cones, nuts, which, as if by magic, will instantly turn into something fabulous and magical.

So that you can include fresh flowers in your New Year's composition - hyacinths, freesias, carnations or rose buds, buy a piaflor florist sponge or green florist flasks in which you can pour water and insert live flower stems or branches at the flower shop so that your the composition remained fresh for as long as possible and delighted you with its original appearance.

Winter floristry in New Year's compositions

Simple holiday decor

The simplest, but very warm and touching composition can be made from a decorative candle in the shape of a cone, surrounded by a round dance of beautiful smaller natural cones. To enhance the effect, the cones can be coated with gold or silver paint. If you need the buds to open, hold them over steam. If, on the other hand, they need to remain tightly closed in a warm room, generously spray the not yet bloomed buds with strong hold hairspray. Cones and leafless branches can be decorated in an original way in a snow-white winter style by dipping them in a hot, saturated salt solution, then taking them out into the cold (can be on a balcony or veranda) and leaving them there for a day. Amazing metamorphoses will occur with cones and twigs - they will be covered with amazing sparkling “ice” crystals.

New Year's compositions with branches

If you don’t have any special outlandish materials on hand, and you don’t feel like hunting for treasures in the forest or simply don’t have time, use dry branches painted with white or silver paint and decorate them with cute Christmas tree decorations. Who would have thought that dry bare branches could look so amazing in New Year's decor! From large branches you can create a stunning creative Christmas tree or anti-Christmas tree. If you don't have a suitable stand or vase, you can use a regular glass jar. Place a piece of foam at the bottom to stick the branches in, and decorate the jar by wrapping it in a beautiful piece of fabric and tying it with a satin ribbon.

Delightful tabletop masterpieces

Tabletop compositions are the most popular. New Year's arrangements for the table are collected on round or oblong flat vases, reminiscent of ordinary plates. A pot with holiday flowers (crocuses, muscari, hyacinths) will look great in the center of the vase, or you can place a bouquet of fresh cut flowers on a needle holder. In order for the composition to be harmonious, the tallest element should not exceed 30 cm. The New Year’s arrangement is supplemented with fir branches, candles, toys, silver rain and “frost” on the branches (crushed foam placed on glue). The holders and pot with forcing are masked with moss.

To keep things simple, you can simply plant beautiful pine cones in pots and cover the “soil” with moss. Simply masterpiece!

Particular attention should be paid to the selection of a stand for the composition, since it itself can become a decorative element. A glass or crystal vase or dish is ideal for exquisitely ceremonial compositions. Stands made from tree cuts, tinder fungi, or intricate roots and snags look very original. The stand can accommodate the most unpredictable items, from painted boxes and tureens to felt boots and vintage boots. If the stand has an unsightly appearance, it can be decorated with fabric, pine branches, fluffy rain, or sprinkled with foam “snow.”

New Year's bouquets look great in a glass vase on a leg. The branches are strengthened on a needle holder or on a moss pad. Candles are attached to the bends of the branches using wire. The wire is covered with moss. The bouquet is decorated with Christmas tree decorations, tinsel and flowers.

Pine and spruce branches in New Year's compositions go perfectly with fresh flowers. The best options for a winter bouquet are roses, chrysanthemums and carnations. If freshly cut flowers are used, most often the arrangement is complemented by a beautiful vase or vessel, which allows you to place the flowers in water and conveniently secure them. If there is no vase that harmonizes with the composition in spirit, you will have to put the flowers in an ordinary jar of water and skillfully disguise it. You can also buy a floral sponge and special cones at a flower shop, or replace them with small test tubes and medicine bottles.

Twigs of coniferous trees look excellent in winter bouquets with dried flowers: immortelle, astilbe, yarrow, kermek, eryngium, physalis, mordovnik, cattail, nigella, flax and various cereals. Dried flowers are so spectacular and decorative that in a festive winter arrangement you can do without pine needles altogether, giving the role of the first violin to dried flowers. Even if you didn’t have time to prudently stock up on dried flowers in the summer, don’t despair. Who seeks will always find! Go to any vacant lot. Take a closer look at the blackened grass sticking out from under the snow - this is exactly what we need! Angelica, quinoa, reed, yarrow... Real treasures! Do not be alarmed by their unsightly, far from festive appearance. Here is another opportunity to give free rein to your imagination and turn on the wizard in you. At home, dry the plucked herbs and transform them by painting them with light gouache or tempera, plating them with silver or gilding. It’s more convenient to do this with a spray can, but you can get by with a regular brush. And you will be happy!

Light plant elements, such as dried flowers or small twigs, can be secured by sticking them into special porous oases, a moss cushion or regular foam. The foam is attached to the base with wood glue. Pieces of moss, tinder fungi and individual twigs are secured in a similar manner. For massive branches, it is most convenient to use kenzan - a metal holder in the form of a lead plate with brass nails. If you can’t get your hands on real kenzan, at home you can replace it with a large potato tuber into which composite branches are stuck. If the basis for the composition is a wicker basket, its bottom should be lined with plastic wrap, and a holder should be placed on top and the bouquet should be carefully assembled.

Beautiful decorative candles will help add warmth and soulfulness to the New Year's arrangement. They go well with pine needles, cones, Christmas balls, natural pebbles, glass, and water. You can also use an original candlestick in a composition with candles, decorating it in a festive way with beads and small New Year’s toys. Candles, complemented by pine branches sprinkled with “snow” made of polystyrene foam or salt, will help create a fabulous unity of “ice and fire.”

Figurines of animals - symbols of the coming year according to the eastern calendar - are appropriate in New Year's compositions. Soft toys with long pile do not go well with fluffy pine needles, but porcelain, plastic, glass, stone and clay figurines will be very useful. The central element of the New Year's composition can also be a beautiful Christmas tree toy - a bell, a bird, a fish, a golden cone...

Candles go well with pine needles, cones, Christmas balls, natural stones, glass, water

To enhance the effect, the cones can be silvered, gilded or painted in any suitable color.

In a composition with candles you can use an original candlestick or candelabra

Winter is often perceived by us as a monochrome time of year, where everything is filled with snow-white color. But in fact, this is a time of contrasts: white snow and juicy red berries of viburnum and rowan, purple beautiful fruit and rich greenery of conifers.

In winter, even the aromas are thicker and richer. Your bouquet can convey all this! Combine soft, airy cotton and pine cones, bright roses, oranges and spruce branches.

Combine elements that are opposite in texture, color and shape in a bouquet. What would be too much in summer will enrich the bouquet and create the mood in winter.

A real work of art! How could it be otherwise? After all, a winter bouquet often uses not only flowers, but also other natural materials that correspond to the season:

• bunches of rowan, beautiful fruit, viburnum
• twigs with fruits of snowberry, barberry, rosehip
• birch branches
• dry flower boxes with seeds, physalis
• bumps
• bark and graceful tree branches
• branches of conifers (spruce, juniper, thuja, cypress)
• cotton bolls
• cinnamon sticks
• star anise
• dried oranges
• fruits and nuts
• dry herbs
• hydrangea inflorescences and other dried flowers

Your imagination can suggest the most unexpected options for elements and decoration of the bouquet. Choose something that will not freeze or wither quickly, which is what we associate with winter. For example, florists advise choosing flowers of dark shades for your bouquet; they are more durable and even if the petals suffer a little from the cold, it will not be noticeable.

Roses, chrysanthemums, callas, carnations, gerberas, tulips, gypsophila, freesia, hydrangea, snowdrops, and cymbidium are ideal for a winter bouquet.

Additional accessories for the bouquet can include knitted elements, ribbons, lace, cords, buttons, foil, Christmas balls, beads, organza, figurines of angels and birds.

Bright, rich, and at the same time, winter bouquet with piano roses, ilex, orchids and cotton.

This bouquet is composed of pine branches, “snow-covered” fir cones, brunia, thuja branches, snowberry and eucalyptus. Small flowers reminiscent of cherry blossoms look delicate and light in a bouquet. The handle of the bouquet is decorated with handmade lace, twine and waxed cord with wooden buttons.

Interior composition will perfectly decorate your home on snowy winter days, complement the table setting and can easily replace the Christmas tree. Take the advice of florists and create your own unique decorative object. So:

A winter composition will have a beautiful shape if you place flowers in it at different angles and at different levels.

Any composition has a focal point - a point that attracts attention (a bright flower, a large bud, a candle, an original shaped branch). It is not necessarily located in the center, but it is around it that the entire composition is built.

Choose a container for the composition that matches the style of the interior.

If the composition will consist of fresh flowers, use a floral sponge. It will also come in handy when creating a Christmas wreath for table setting.

You can choose foam or plasticine as the basis of the composition. This base is suitable for New Year's compositions when it is necessary to secure spruce branches, balls, animal figures, garlands, and install candles.

For single cut flowers, you can use thin narrow vessels (test tubes), which can be easily secured inside the composition.

Use branches of different lengths (vines, willow twigs, tree branches and roots). With their help, you can add dynamics and direction to your composition.

A stand in the form of a cut tree is perfect for a New Year's composition. The composition itself is installed on such a stand not in the center, but is shifted to one side.

A composition of bright and dark flowers will look good on a light background, and a light bouquet on a dark background.

You don't have to buy flowers for your winter arrangement. Most indoor plants are perfect for creating it. Moreover, many of them have a flowering period in winter. Choose:

• poinsettia (Christmas star)
• Schlumberger (Decembrist)
• hippeastrum, amarylis, wallota
• orchid
• chlorophytum
• cyclamen
• azalea

Fragrant, winter composition of scarlet roses and spruce branches with cinnamon sticks and orange.

Door of a house or apartment: entrance to a fairy tale

Just by looking at the decorated front door and porch of a country house, you get the feeling that the holiday is already close. Therefore, it is quite justified to first decorate the front door, hallway, terrace, veranda or porch, in other words, the entrance to the house.

As you can see, it’s nothing complicated: other containers, fir branches, cones and balls will do their job:

You can make such a simple but effective composition (it’s better to buy decorative apples):

If there are logs in the yard of your house or dacha, then give them the opportunity to participate in the New Year’s decor :)

If there is not enough space in the hallway for such large compositions, then you can always make them more miniature. Or decorate the windows! When you return home, be filled with a festive mood, looking at the cozy windows :)

Catch the idea! Miniature logs can also be placed on the windowsill

To the branches you can add fir cones, mounted on skewers for barbecue, as well as branches with red berries (viburnum, rose hips, elderberry, wild apple):

Very soon, decorative twigs with red berries will appear on sale, which are ideal for composing:

Festive tableware and textiles for the kitchen

The kitchen is the place where the whole family spends most of the pre-holiday and holiday days. If you have dishes with New Year's decor, then slowly begin to take them out of the cabinets and place them on open shelves:

Buying a New Year's service is not a cheap pleasure, but it does not have to be done at once. Most stores sell dishes from the same series PER PIECES. Build your collection gradually.

By the way, the dishes can be quite everyday, but if you add just a few themed plates or mugs, the mood will immediately change to exciting and playful:

And even if you prefer dishes of neutral colors (not red), they may well become part of the New Year’s decoration - put New Year’s figurines, a Christmas tree, and festive textiles on the shelves:

Blankets are also an alternative to bed linen. If you have not yet acquired your own, but have been wanting to do so for a long time, then start with one or two this year and continue in subsequent years.

Traditional New Year's colors: red, white, green.
Prints: all kinds of checkered patterns, New Year's ornaments.

You can make your home blanket more festive using braid with balls if you sew it around the perimeter of the blanket. A wonderful idea, you must agree!)

Christmas wreaths, easy to make

It is impossible to imagine foreign homes without an abundance of Christmas wreaths. Of course, we would also like to decorate the front door with a wreath, but it’s a pity to give wasted money or time and our efforts to those who like to take what is “badly” lying around. Therefore it is safer.

Among the simple options that do not require special materials and skills, there are these:

Simple wreath with paper star decoration

Wreath as a base for a mobile and a miniature wreath pendant

Christmas stockings and how to hang them

Not everyone is ready to hang Christmas stockings around the house yet. Having seen enough beautiful pictures from foreign sites, many people think that socks definitely need a real fireplace. But this is not true at all. Just look at how many ways you can hang them!

Hang your socks on a hanger in the hallway, or on the stairs, or next to it:

If you want to hang it by the fireplace (but there isn’t one), then make an improvised one:

Absolutely any hanger with hooks, a strong rope or just a thick branch will be suitable for socks:

It is not necessary to embroider socks, and then also sew them (not everyone likes or knows how to do this). You can knit socks and even buy regular ones, but with New Year’s prints.

Great idea with photos!

Another way to use skis in a non-standard way)

Socks can be any shape, size and color

You can knit not only socks, but also mittens!

Socks hung on a rope

Socks on a branch - minimalism in its purest form

A real “discovery” for me was the homemade decorative fences on which resourceful needlewomen hang knitted or sewn socks:

MASTER CLASS ON THE TOPIC
But if you want embroidered socks, then a master class will help you

A decorative pole or holder for New Year's stockings is an incredibly cool thing!

The holder blank can be ordered from a carpentry workshop:

And if you don’t want to bother with all sorts of hangings, then knit/sew a giant sock for gifts and hide it under the Christmas tree:
