Panorama with a fabulous installation

To work you will need pencils, tracing paper, scissors and a LED garland. Glue the sheets together so that they reach the length of your window opening.

To create a layering, type at least three of these templates. Now resort to the same drawings from the Internet or your own (step back about 6 cm from the bottom edge).

Cut out the stencils and place them on the prepared strips, placing them in a continuous sequence. Then bend the bottom edge of the sheet a few centimeters and lay it on the windowsill.

Window decorations made from snowflakes

If you just get bored with snowflakes, then you can make a panel of snowflakes. Look how beautiful the deer and the Christmas tree are made of small and large snowflakes. Snowflake stencils here.

And here are some cute curtains made of snowflakes and silhouettes of cats

And here’s how unusually the scene was staged, the hut and the smoke from the chimney, decorated with snowflakes. Do you agree that snowflakes don’t look so boring?!

Forest lights

As it turns out, if you show a little creativity, even the appearance of an ordinary garland can surprise and look completely new.

You will also only need a flat board (20-30 cm wide), a heat gun and twigs with branches.

Take a board and mark for attaching the branches, then drill holes there with a drill. Secure the branches in the holes with glue and install lights on them. Now all that remains is to admire a truly exclusive picture.

Transparent snowflakes from hot melt adhesive or PVA for windows (templates and stencils)

I'll tell you in more detail later. Now there is one idea that, in the context of the whole topic, will show how beautiful this decoration looks and how quickly it can be made.

You will need:

• Stencils;
• Baking paper (or simple tracing paper);
• Glue gun;
• Scotch.

How to do:

• Place tracing paper on the stencil.
• Using a glue gun, repeat the contours of the snowflake on tracing paper.
• Peel off the snowflake.
• Secure the craft to the glass with tape.

Snowflakes turn out like crystal!

By the way, you can make a pattern from snowflakes of different shapes and sizes. For example, a Christmas tree or a snowflake covering the entire window. Stencils will help you - enlarge by clicking:

You can glue such paper crafts to glass in different ways:

• For water (if from napkins);
• Soap solution;
• Place on tape.

How to make snowflakes from PVA glue? This option may be suitable even for kids. Place the printed drawing of a snowflake under the parchment and draw a snowflake using PVA. If you immediately apply glitter onto the uncured glue, you will get a beautiful shiny snowflake. You can paint PVA glue with acrylic paints and immediately paint colored snowflakes.

It is very easy to glue on windows - they stick themselves, if not, then moisten them a little with water.

Magic town

This is an idea whose implementation will not go unnoticed. Walking in the evening, in cold weather, a person is simply doomed to notice a fairy tale radiating directly from your home. The heart of everyone who contemplates it will be filled with a New Year's mood at all costs, warm memories will certainly flash through it, and a sincere smile will appear on their face.

First, you will need images of houses, download them or draw them yourself, the main thing is clear outlines. Then duplicate the illustrations onto cardboard and trim off any excess. After which the resulting houses are glued together, the result should be a figure resembling a long rectangle.

To add realism to your composition, use the rules of perspective. High-rise buildings are in the background, small structures are in the foreground. Place it on your windowsill and light up the lights in the city. At the same time, do not forget about safety precautions.

New Year's garlands for window decoration

Easy to do. You can also use ready-made ones, for example, ordinary “rains”.

Or you can make a soft and bright garland of felt. The toys do not have to be voluminous; you can simply cut out Christmas trees or boots according to a template, use hot glue or instant to glue small decorative elements and attach them to a string.

Bells on a ribbon.

Garland of balls

Tie the bells with knots at a short distance from each other. Make several such threads.

Snowmen from krokotak, or rather a garland of snowmen.

It’s very simple to make - print out the snowman or trace it along the outline. The template is two in one, depending on how you fold the top.

We fold one snowman so that it becomes a hat on his head, the other so that it becomes headphones, we instruct the children to color it and hang the snowmen on a rope.

Cotton balls on fishing line.

Roll cotton wool into balls. String on fishing line or thread. I wonder if the balls will be different sizes. They can be alternated with snowflakes.

Stickers

Glass stickers are an ideal solution for those who do not have enough time, but want to create a festive atmosphere. They are glued mainly inward.

It’s not difficult to get such a sticker, especially since there are services that can print any character you’re interested in onto a sticker. As a rule - classic.

For example, this is the Snow Maiden, bunnies, deer, gnomes or various snowmen. And if earlier the difficulty of removing a sticker from glass was still an obstacle, now the Internet contains dozens of a wide variety of harmless methods.

This can be either heating the surface with a hairdryer and then wiping it with a cotton swab soaked in nail polish remover, or using a special substance that is sold in any office supply store.

To avoid repeating pictures that have already become boring, you can resort to the symbol of the coming year, so 2019/2020 will be the transition from the year of the pig to the year of the rat.

DIY window decorations made from paper

These include cones, fir branches and much more, for example, balls.

Making:

• Quietly place several sheets of thin paper on top of each other.
• Fold all layers of paper like an accordion. The width of the strip is of your choice and depends on the diameter of the ball.
• Tie this accordion in the middle with thread.
• Trim (straighten) and round the edges.
• Lift each layer one by one and straighten it. Raise half the layers up.
• Then turn the craft over. Straighten the second half of the sheets in the other direction.
• You will get a ball.
• Hang it on the window.

Paper metamorphoses

Paper is the most accessible and cheapest raw material. With cut out snowflakes you can reproduce a natural snowstorm.

They are glued to glass or hung, connected to the cornice base. With these elements it is easy to lay out the shape of a spruce tree, depict smoke from the chimney of a snow-covered house, or arrange it with another ornament.

Fancy models, varied in configuration and size, are available in any color, complemented by sparkles and beads.

Masterpieces made using the quilling method appear with unusual patterns, similar to frosty mosaics, and non-standard figures of fairy-tale characters.

Vytynankas are in demand - filigree cut-out pictures of flags, ballerinas, angels, deer, birds and other images that recreate a real artistic canvas with meaning. They are placed on PVA glue, soap or double-sided tape.

The simplest version is store-bought stickers and stickers with images or inscriptions corresponding to the New Year's theme. You can simply stick them on, and if not needed, remove them and put them aside until next season.

Garland offers

Stretches are stretched across the window opening in a horizontal position and hung on them in one or several rows:

• hearts;
• stars;
• gingerbread;
• lollipops and sweets;
• Christmas socks;
• Christmas trees;
• beads;
• colored pompoms.

Even painted cotton pads are useful. Samples can be mounted not only on the cornice, but also on curtains. The vertically flowing pendants have a particularly attractive appearance.

A win-win variation is Christmas tree balls suspended with height differences. Attached to invisible fishing lines, they will float ephemerally in the air, sparkling in the sun during the day and delighting the eye in the evening as an expressive interior accent.

Non-trivial ideas

Illumination has always been associated with celebration and a positive attitude. Glowing lights in electric garlands can be combined with snowflakes and bells, inserted into disposable cups, creating colorful decorations.

The light curtain is recreated with an original, mysteriously flickering mesh garland. The base pendant can be a nice embossed knot found on the street and painted white, gold, or silver.

The frame can be completely covered with fir branches with decorative details, or hung as a lambrequin.

Silver-plated cones, gingerbread houses, mittens look incredibly harmonious, and dried orange slices and cinnamon sticks will give residents a divine fragrance.

Stencils for inscriptions and numbers

I will share an observation from the last New Year. Residents of one apartment posted the following wish on their window: “Everyone! Total!". You know, as they say, it’s a small thing, but it’s nice!

Congratulation templates:

You can print any letters and hang them as a congratulatory text. You can cut out all the patterns and you will get a vytynanka.

It is convenient to cut with a stationery knife. Print out the template and place a blank A4 sheet underneath it. Fix both sheets with tape to the table and use a knife to cut out all the patterns inside on the template, then the general outline, under the template you get a sheet with a finished protrusion.

Pendants

The next thing we will touch on in the article is cones-pendants. But to design them, you should worry about the materials in advance.

Collect them in the fall while enjoying a walk in the forest. Dry and choose clean and light ones. Sort it out again, this time according to size.

Paint carefully with acrylic paint, placing paper towels underneath to avoid staining the table. Afterwards, coat with varnish. We will hang it with a jute rope; it goes well with the pine cone.

To summarize, we can say that after familiarizing yourself with the above ideas, you will definitely create a festive atmosphere for yourself.

Involve your family and friends in this matter and capture happy moments. Supplement what is proposed with your own solutions, combine them and do not limit your imagination. Advise your friends on how to decorate their windows.

With modest experience, it is better to start with something simple and gradually raise the bar, improving your skills.

Make this a real tradition on par with fireworks or Olivier. And you will see how the environment you create yourself will have a beneficial effect. Let window decoration for the New Year also become a memorable event.

Stencils for cutting out on a window with the symbol of the year

It is very correct if in the year of the Ox we decorate the windows with the owner of the year, as if inviting good luck to visit. You can place a Bull next to the congratulations. Choose serious or fun!

Small Christmas trees

Instead of one large Christmas tree, place several small collections or individual branches along the window. Place them in beautiful flowerpots or wrap them in elegant bags.

Paper vytynanka (cuttings) on the theme of the New Year 2022

A win-win for anyone with small children. Together with them you can choose a good plot. What then? Print and cut out the pictures. All that remains is to stick them on the glass. More options for vytynanka here.

You can attach the sheet to the screen, circle the necessary elements, color, cut and paste

New Year characters

Some templates

A very large, interesting plot with birds, Christmas trees, gifts and stars. We cut it and glue it on PVA, it is then easily washed off with water.

And here are some funny snowmen:

And templates for them.

You can also cut out snowmen holding onto a twig.

Recommendations

An excessive abundance of accessories harms the interior, so do not neglect maintaining balance. Alternately try symmetrical, central and asymmetrical layouts, play with styles and thematic selections.

First, you should prepare a drawing; you can draw it by hand or print it and attach it to a file. Repeat the pattern lines with glue on the film.

For accuracy and convenience, it is recommended to use a syringe. Try to paint a thick layer, and adjust the result with a brush along the way. Avoid details that are too small - they will merge together.

Then the homemade product is dried; to speed up the process, dry it near the radiators. It will be ready when the glue becomes clearer, but do not let it dry completely.

And then just carefully remove and glue them onto the glass. If desired, add glitter before drying.

And this is a simple but effective drawing with toothpaste diluted with water to a gouache state.

You can draw pictures yourself using simple gouache. I think it would be interesting for a child to do something like this. But you can also print some animals. Gouache is quite easy to wash off with water, and it also allows you to make a colored drawing.

Decorating shop windows

Ordinary mannequins can become part of a New Year's showcase scene

New Year's worries affect not only residents of apartments and houses, but also store owners. Glass doors and shop windows can also be painted: panoramic windows provide more space to create a magical landscape. The composition in which stained glass paints are used looks great.

If there is enough space outside the window, we install and decorate a festive tree and three-dimensional sculptures. Any decorations are suitable: in the form of cones, figurines, lights, tinsel.

The action of a popular fairy tale may unfold on the window display

Don’t forget to register the entrance, because it attracts passers-by with its beauty. We decorate it as desired: choose from the given options the appropriate ones that can support the style and theme of the store. You can attach Christmas wreaths in the doorway.

No inspiration - you can easily find a selection of photos of finished showcases on the Internet. Each of them will tell you what to add specifically for your corporate design.

Elements of originality

Curtains will help change the appearance of the window if you hang them in an unusual way. The original look will be created by intersecting canvases.

Old curtains are suitable for decoration, but to enhance the effect it is advisable to hang something exclusive.

Wreaths

A small element that lifts your spirits. Thin branches from a coniferous tree tied into a wreath and decorated with toys and ribbons really have some kind of magical effect.

If you also paste in images of popular characters that children love, this will become an excellent holiday decoration.

What is the best way to paste a cut out image?

On the one hand, such a question seems naive and even meaningless. Everyone understands that you need to glue things with glue. However, there are some pretty serious problems lurking here. The glue often leaves stains that are very difficult to remove. The thought of these stains can ruin your entire New Year's mood. And during the sticking process, stains and streaks often remain on the glass or window frames.

Therefore, you need to know what is the best way to glue cut-out images. Everyday practice shows that it is best to stick templates:

• soap solution;
• tape;
• glue.

Special mention should be made about the glue.
Glue glues discord. After some of its varieties, simply ineradicable traces remain on glass, frames or walls. The best types of glue for this purpose are PVA and an ordinary stationery pencil. Yes, there will be marks after them, but they are easily removed. And all this applies to stickers of products on glass. But if you glue an image to the wall, then you generally need to try to do without any glue. Any glue sticks tightly to the wall. In this case, tape is more suitable, or even better - a soap solution. Now let’s talk in more detail about which New Year’s stencils are best to decorate a window for the holiday.

Cotton balls

For this decoration you need:

• roll cotton balls;
• string them on a thread or fishing line.

Balls of different diameters will look original. Alternation with other decorative elements will add zest.
