As soon as November comes to an end, we are increasingly beginning to notice New Year's decorations, which decorate showcases of stalls, hypermarkets and, of course, at home. However, the period of decorating your own home takes place a little later. In the meantime, you should clearly think over the basic concept, which will then become the incredibly beautiful and festive decor of our house .
The color of the New Year 2016
So, the main color, according to the Chinese horoscope, is red. But this does not mean at all that when planning the decor for the New Year 2016, you should decorate everything with this color. The future symbol of the year, in the person of the lovely Monkey, prefers also lilac-lilac shades, therefore, considering how to decorate the house for the New Year, it is necessary to consider this palette. For example, it will be incredibly beautiful to look a silvery-white decor with insets of red, purple and lilac flowers. This design, at the same time, will correspond to the Chinese horoscope, and the main symbol of the coming year.
But do not get carried away with bright design, otherwise the room will turn into one big center of irritation due to the presence in it of excessive amount of light. New Year's decor 2016 is preferable to dilute a less colorful palette. A great solution will be mixing of red and white, blue and orange colors. And if you really want to apply in decorating and a couple of bright accents, try to identify only some elements of the house or apartment. Then they will look good and harmoniously fit into the rest of the decor.
The perfect solution will be the use of colored napkins and candles for the festive table. Do not be superfluous and the image of a monkey, set in the living room or hung on a Christmas tree. Thinking about the festive design, do not forget to inform the guests of the dress code of the event, so that a merry celebration would also take place in red and purple tones.
Decorating a Christmas tree for the new year 2016
Thinking of decorating for the New Year, you should first take care of the appearance of the Christmas tree - the main symbol of this wonderful holiday. And since the Monkey is very fond of multi-colored foil, bows, fruits and nuts, it can be safely said that the "Soviet ornament" is returning to fashion. To do this, we wrap the sweets and fruits in a bright foil and decorate them with a Christmas tree. In this case, several large fruits can even be left without a wrapper. Against the background of other Christmas tree decorations for the New Year they will look very organic.
Trying to decorate our Christmas tree as best as possible, we do not forget about the so-called "European decor" with the help of bows. Choosing a few red or purple bows, tie them down at the bottom of the tree or on its branches, giving our beautiful even more festive look. And to decorate the bows more organically fit into the rest of the design, decorate them with the same festive table or living room.
