15.12.2023 10:03

To decorate the interior for New Year's celebrations, many people turn to the Internet to search for ideas.

You need to try to avoid making mistakes so that the apartment doesn’t drown in blinking garlands or Christmas stockings on improvised fireplaces.

Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior, told us what mistakes people make when decorating their interiors for the New Year.

Decorations on the verge of clutter

First of all, you need to remember that any decorations need to be put away after the holiday, and putting away is always more difficult than decorating.

Excessive New Year's decor, together with existing interior items, can turn into outright junk and disorder.

Lots of garlands

Garlands on the tree and on the window create that very New Year's atmosphere.

But if you add a few flashing lights to the wall, and if they all flash in different dynamic rhythms, colors and temperatures, you will soon want to escape from the house.

Colorful decor

One room should be decorated by choosing two or three color schemes. Ideal are compositions of red, white and gold, or silver with gold or silver with blue.

Style

Don't mix European style decoration (red socks) with Asian style (mythology and lanterns).

The same applies to eras. For example, rare glass toys will decorate the tree on their own, without modern tinsel and garland.

Other people's ideas

It has long been noted that in pictures the interior looks different from the reality. Therefore, do not forget about your mood, taste, hobbies and habits.

Earlier we told you what to do with a New Year tree so that it will stand until the end of the holidays.
