Advent calendar with sweet gifts, decor with natural texture of wood and toys from the dough - tell how to create a cozy New Year's atmosphere with scandium elements.
Scandinavian interiors firmly settled in Russian reality. We admire no accident - this is an incredibly comfortable style that loves natural materials, cute prints and a bright palette. New Year's decor in such a way resembles childhood - the same simple and slightly magical.
1 stars from paper
Scandinavian response to our traditional paper snowflakes - bulk stars. They can be made independently or buy already ready in the store. Sometimes the lamp is placed inside, and the star can perform the role of the lamp. But more often they are simply suspended on an invisible fishing line under the ceiling or on the window.
2 Minimalist garlands
Complex multicolored suspensions are departed into the background, giving way to laconic lanterns and light bulbs on the cord. It is better to choose monochrome garlands - a traffic light. Multi lies in a simple Scandinavian style looks too fried. It is possible to highlight in this way anything: a working area in the kitchen, a dining table, a sofa, a TV - what is enough fantasy and the length of the cord.
3 Thematic ceramics
Cozy New Year's mugs and plates begin to appear in the kitchens of the country long until December 31. They are used as decoration - put on open shelves. It is still so possible to serve breakfast, pancakes on a plate with an elegant Christmas tree look much more appetizing and reminded of pleasant. Well, the classic option is to cook cocoa, to pour into a cozy New Year's mug with a print, generously sprinkle with marshmars and turn on the New Year's film.
4 wreaths
They are used in different styles. In Scandinavian - these are laconic decorations, woven from fir branches with a decor in the form of cotton boxes, cardboard figures or dried oranges. Alternatively, you can make a wreath of rods of the vine and decorate a textile bow. Or take a circle of cardboard as the basis, and top to stick bumps and christmas toys.
5 Wooden decorations
Scandinavian style loves the texture of a natural tree. It is appropriate everywhere: in furniture, decor and even prints on textiles. Christmas toys and New Year's decorations - no exception. They can be made independently, drinking simple on the shape of a ball or star. If Hand Maid is not your horse, just choose a suitable decor in the store. Grebells look great with wooden deer, lamps in the shape of stars or christmas trees.
6 toys from the dough
The Christmas trees are not always decorated with glass or plastic toys and LEDs. In the past decor, tangerines, candy and cookies served. Why not return this cozy tradition? You can make cool christmas toys from puff pastry. Just cook the dough on the recipe or buy ready, with the help of molds for cookies cut different figures and send them to the oven. When toys cookies will be ready, grind the twine in them and proceed to the decor. Alternatively, you can use a simple salt dough, it is not even necessary to bake.
7 linen track
Another option to include the natural traditional scandinavine style texture in the New Year decor - flaxseed textiles. Use a linen track for serving a New Year's table, you can put a varied decor in the form of wreaths, candles and balls, and on the free part of the table, put the festive plates. The dishes can be put on the table, and if there is no place - to position on the work area in the kitchen.
8 Homemade Accessories
A wonderful reason to spend December weekend with family for a fascinating activity - make a set of toys for the Christmas tree with your own hands. They can be sewed from felt, cut out of paper and cardboard, cut off plywood. Give the will of fantasy, prepare for all hot tea and enjoy the waiting for the new year.
9 Advent Calendar
In the Scandinavian countries (however, as in many Western), it is customary to count the days before Christmas, using the Advent Calendar. Why not adopt this idea? Advent calendar can be very small - in the form of a book or postcard, and can become a full-fledged room decor, if you make a panel on the wall, and inside the sweet gifts for every day of December.
