El decor: traditional symbol in a nontraditional performance

 Looking Christmas decoration ideas home to various Western online resources, I caught myself thinking that most of them are not exactly (or not) are available for the average Russian citizen. And it's not the cost of a decoration, not a complexity of execution decor, and a simple lack of it has an average person of ordinary things in the West, such as a fireplace or a wooden staircase leading to the second floor or attic. What can I say! Often many of us give up the idea to put the Christmas tree in the apartment, with horror imagining how it will occupy almost the entire living space.

The question is, How is it that the holiday (and our mood) should depend on such nonsense? So I wanted to show you some interesting ideas on home decorating Christmas and New Year, does not require a five rooms, four-meter ceilings with moldings and high expenses. The main thing - to preserve the traditional symbols of the holiday, to realize that you can use the most unexpected materials, interesting combinations and textures.

If you have high ceilings, you can use them for decoration. Oshkurennye twigs, sticks, securely fastened to the wall, decorated with electric garlands, unbreakable toys and small bumps. What's wrong with Christmas tree? But do not forget about safety precautions, especially if the house curious animals or small children.

And this "spruce" make it even easier: strong cord or thick thread is fixed with a small cloves and a strong adhesive tape in a contrasting color, creating a wall contour tree. Light Christmas decorations (they can be pictures, postcards, photos) are held by the same tape, and you need to fix the heavier toys safer, for example, hanging out for a decorative ribbon to hammer a nail.

This idea struck me as quite interesting: painted in dark tone wall serves as a slate. Plus this scenery - the ability to change it something even every minute, without fear of spoiling. Kids just love this idea!

Christmas tree from white-painted branches and glazed cookies in the shape of Christmas tree balls. The main thing - to choose a stable vase that will not tip at the most inopportune moment.

Strong branches, a garland of beads that resemble berries, light Christmas tree decorations - all collected into a single "bouquet" and suspended in the manner of a ceiling lamp. I really like this idea, you only need to think of ways a safe and secure fit all decorative design.

Christmas tree decorated with wonderful pearl-green fruit, a good supplement to the festive serving.

Small homemade Christmas trees, consisting of a conical base and colored "petals", cut from paper with adhesive. By the way, they can be cut from tissue and sticking to the substrate with a transparent glue.

I hope these ideas have fallen decoration you like! Hurry up to do, New Year just around the corner :)
