Since the times of the USSR, it has been customary to decorate windows for the New Year, for which children actively cut out fancy snowflakes of different shapes and sizes.
Snowflakes haven't disappeared, they've just given way to plot decorations. Maybe not everyone knows, but they're called vytynanka.
Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior, told us which vytynankas will be relevant for the New Year 2024 and what else to decorate the windows with.
Thematic decorations can be any images with a winter theme, including Christmas trees, Father Frost, Snow Maiden, and Chinese mythology.
Therefore, it makes sense to decorate the windows with the following figures.
The Green Wooden Dragon is the symbol of 2024. You can cut out an image from a cartoon or find a classic image of a Chinese dragon on the Internet.
It is essential to complement the glass composition with Christmas tree decorations.
The Father Frost familiar to many will look great on skis, with a sack, or near the Christmas tree with Snegurochka.
The tree should be the center of the composition or a secondary element - it all depends on the size of the window and the imagination of the residents.
In addition to curtain garlands, you can safely decorate windows with Christmas tree decorations, pine cones, ribbons, and beads.
You can breathe a second life into Soviet snowflakes by cutting them out of craft paper.
A house or a fireplace designed to look like a candlestick could be an innovation.
And if you have artistic skills, you can paint the windows with a marker, gouache or a special spray to depict frost patterns.
