If you want to properly prepare for the New Year, then for this case I have prepared for you 100 interesting ideas, which can easily be done very quickly, but also use the most affordable materials.
What and how to decorate
As a bonus, I'll give you a decorating plan. It sounds scary, but it doesn't mean anything terrible at all.
This is the order I suggest:
The first material for creating decorations for the New Year is, of course, paper and cardboard. After all, they are found in every home, and purchasing additional volumes of this pliable material is quite easy.
They are very popular in winter paper crafts. various kinds window decorations. In the coming year, its symbol, the Yellow Earth Pig, was given a special role. To decorate your windows with these animals, I suggest you look at these patterns.
Do you want to bring good luck into your home? Cut out pigs from yellow paper and add gold glitter.
Here are the templates for the rest of the vytynankas (this is what winter paper window art is called). Among them you will find snowmen, bells, snow-covered expanses with fir trees and much more. Have fun carving!
In fact, there will be even more of these original and creative cubes! Along with them you will find little elves and a reindeer from Santa's carriage. You can put little surprises in these for children or use them as independent apartment decorations.
This is such a funny Santa.
Reindeer Rudolph, without whom Santa Claus is nowhere.
Snowman looking forward to the New Year.

And finally, the elf helpers are three kind kids.
These boxes were created by a wonderful girl under the nickname Hellohappycrafts. Thanks to it you can download scans of these holiday boxes in a large expansion, which will allow you to experiment with the sizes of finished jewelry:
Download box scans
Of course, it is best to print them on a color printer and then cut them out. But if this is not possible, then you can paste elements from colored paper onto a black-and-white printed scan.
If you have heavy metallic cardstock, some rhinestones, glue and ribbon, create a deer pendant like the one below. The laconic design will appeal to those who do not like an abundance of details.
To make a whole interior composition, stock up on several deer different colors and sizes. Secure them with tsapon varnish (if unavailable, use PVA), sprinkle with glitter.
From the same series, patterned New Year's star. You can cut out both decorations if you save each option to yourself and then print it out.
It's easy to make a mesmerizing garland from cardboard. To do this, you just need to cut several hundred circles and sew them on a sewing machine, sequentially connecting them together.
If there is no machine or you are not sure of the result, then slowly glue the circles to the thread to make the same garland as below. Use a satin ribbon or regular lace as a hanging ribbon.
Another option for a garland with stars. The technology for creating it yourself is exactly the same as the first one.
Several snowflakes made using the quilling technique can complement the garlands. These can easily be used to decorate not only a room, but also a school and classrooms. You can even devote a couple of labor lessons to creating such snowflakes. primary school! After all, you only need to twist the strips of paper, sometimes squeezing the edge, and glue them together.
Don't know how to bake Chinese fortune cookies, but really want to try your luck? Make their likeness out of double-sided cardboard or thick paper. All you need to do is cut out a circle and fold it in a special way, putting a wish or prediction inside.
Small decoration from corrugated paper can be done by folding three diamonds of green and red colors like an accordion, and then connecting them with a ribbon.
If you want to make street lanterns, then I offer two options at once.
In the first of them you will need to fold a box using the origami technique. Such boxes can then be placed on a diode garland, creating an unusual diffused glow effect.
For exotic lovers, Chinese awaits New Year's lantern. For it, prepare red and gold cardboard, floss threads, a gold marker and scissors with glue. Cut the blank as shown in the photo below. Trace the edges with a marker, make a tassel from floss and gold cylinders from cardboard at the top and bottom of the lamp.
These lanterns will decorate your garden or a private house, becoming a highlight in the pre-holiday decoration.
You can decorate the room for the holiday in the most different ways, starting with a wreath on the door and ending with snowmen made from cans with a variety of contents.
The most durable jewelry is made from these materials. Decorate your door with a winter wreath. It can be made from a base ring, terry yarn and felt elements chosen to your taste. Felt wreath details below:
Cheerful fabric deer will turn out much more attractive if their legs and antlers are made from twigs wrapped in thread.
When we talk about New Year's toys, we only think about Christmas trees. But these photo ideas are actually cute winter toys. The deer, bear cubs and penguin are made of fleece.
Crazy simple herringbone, the patterns of which can be taken directly from the photo. You can sew one like this in just a couple of hours, and in a couple of days you can fill your whole house with plush Christmas trees! Decorate it with braid, embroidery, buttons, rhinestones and much more.
It’s even easier to make burlap angels; they literally consist of two parts sewn together. You get interesting decorations in the rustic style, especially if you add natural material as decoration (dried leaves, flowers, etc.).
A very large number of New Year's decorations are created from ribbons. different plans. Moreover, as a quality additional element, and in the main role.
The next option is suitable both for decorating a doorway and as a DIY decoration(in case you have a large photo frame). You will need satin ribbons and empty transparent balls, which you can fill with anything you want. The frame can be painted to enhance the festive effect.
The following wreath is suitable for both home and office or study. In the latter case, you can choose a muted range of colors. To make one yourself, take two colors of satin ribbons and then follow the simple pattern below.
Small stylish Christmas tree, which can be used as a hanging decoration in the car. A thick cord is used as a base, onto which ribbons are tied one by one.
For another Christmas tree, beads are also used. Lay the ribbon in loops, alternating with beads and not forgetting to place the entire structure on the thread.
Home decor knows no mercy! If you have a little imagination and patience, the most unexpected masterpieces can be born.
To create these snowmen you will need several jars (preferably plastic ones), which you can fill as you wish.
Do not connect jars together. Fill the snowmen with treats and stack one on top of the other. Now you can treat yourself to these compositions.
Create snowflakes from plastic cans. Cut the bottoms of several pieces and paint them with acrylic paints. Make fastenings at the base so that these decorations can be hung above a window sill or under the ceiling, or hung on a cardboard frame to create a Christmas tree.
You can quickly make an interesting decoration in the form of a snowflake from a wooden blank by painting the wood with acrylic paints.
Crafts with embroidered elements always look unusual. To make the decorations below, you will need a plastic canvas that can be covered with a felt insert at the back. The diagram is easy to remove from the photo.
To create a ball with buttons, take a foam blank and that’s it decorative elements. Make a loop from the lace and glue the rest.
Beads and wire are great companions. Using them, you can create seemingly simple, but so cute pendants with your own hands that you can use to decorate windows and, in general, the entire space of your apartment. They are easy to make - put them on a piece of wire sufficient quantity beads of the desired colors and bend them into the desired shape.
An original idea for exotic lovers - a winter-style dream catcher.
Again, you don't need any special materials. As they say, whatever is at hand (well, maybe a little more).
It turns out that Christmas ball-type toys can be made from large quantity different components. For example, take a foam base and attach sequins to it using small pins.
Or finally get rid of the annoying disks and split them into many small parts, which are then glued to a transparent plastic base.
A ball made of foil and cardboard also looks interesting.
Take a closer look at the New Year's ball made of pompoms.
You can’t live without textiles; using simple patterns it’s easy to create a masterpiece.
Plastic balls are a huge space for creative imagination. They can be covered with a thread frame or sprinkled with glitter or sequins inside.
I'll show you how to make a Christmas tree with your own hands - there are never too many of them for the New Year.
Take a mesh, PVA glue, paper, pins and glowing garlands. Do paper cone. Soak the mesh in glue and wrap this cone, securing the mesh with pins. Wait until it dries, take it out paper base. That's it, you can light it inside the garland
For light bulb penguins, prepare old light bulbs, ribbon for eyelets, acrylic paints and a pencil for drawing outlines.
In general, all you need to do is paint the light bulbs as you wish, attach eyelets and additionally decorate with various sequins, knitted and sewn elements, rhinestones, etc. Ready
The only downside to this idea is the need to get light bulbs somewhere.

Do you like to do handicrafts? Then you will love making Christmas tree decorations with your own hands! It's nice and exciting activity for the whole family, which will not leave anyone indifferent - you will spend several evenings with pleasure making Christmas tree decorations with your own hands.
For production you will need:
The template needs to be attached with pins (or ordinary toothpicks) to the porous material, and the design you need should be laid out on top - first the outline is laid out, then the interior decor. You should not cross the threads too often; the toy should be fairly flat. Once you are finished, dry the item and remove it from the pins and tie a loop in the eye. If desired, you can decorate with sparkles or rain.
To make toys you will need:
The ends of the thick wire need to be twisted. You need to string beads and seed beads mixed together on a thin wire, tie the end of the thin wire to the future Christmas tree decoration, and wrap it randomly.
When the toy is evenly wrapped, you need to wrap the free tail of the wire around the toy and tie a ribbon in the shape of a bow - your toy is ready.
Another original idea:
You will need:
Interior decor made in this way looks very attractive.
So, you will need:
Using a loose tail of twine, wrap the tree in different directions. After some kind of thread pattern appears on the tree, you can start gluing it with a napkin. You can tear the napkin into pieces, coat the tree well with glue, and seal it tightly with the napkin. This will give a nice texture to the future toy.
After the toy has dried, you can start painting - paint the Christmas tree green.
After the paint layer has dried, shade the texture of the toy using a dry, hard brush and white paint, and then decorate it to your taste.
Prepare several paper patterns - for example, deer, stars, gingerbread men, teddy bears, letters and hearts. Cut out fabric blanks with your own hands, sew them in pairs, leaving a small gap (for stuffing), and through this small hole, tightly stuff the toys with cotton wool or padding polyester. It is most convenient to fill with a pencil.
Patterns can be downloaded here:
By the way, don’t forget - we sew on a machine from the inside, but if you decide to make toys from thick fabric, then it’s better to stitch decorative seam over the edge - a toy with your own hands will look simply charming and will be suitable even for homemade Christmas tree, at least for kindergarten- usually children make decorations themselves for kindergarten Christmas trees.
The star template can be downloaded here:
Place the thread as tightly as possible so that there are no gaps. To decorate the star, make a couple of leaves and berries from fabric and decorate one of the rays. Your decoration is ready.
To make Christmas tree decorations in the form of hats, you will need:
The threads need to be cut into pieces of approximately 20-22 centimeters. Fold each piece in half, draw a loop through cardboard ring, and pull the free edges of the threads through the loop. It is necessary that the thread is firmly fixed to the cardboard base. This needs to be repeated until the cardboard base is hidden under the threads.
All the thread tails need to be pulled through the ring so that our hat has a “lapel”.
Now we pull the loose tails tightly with thread and cut them into a pom-pom shape - the hat is ready! All that remains is to make a loop and decorate your Christmas tree toy with sequins and sparkles.
Make a loop on the wire and string green beads mixed with large beads on it - they will play the role of New Year's balls on our Christmas tree. Once the wire is filled, give it a herringbone shape by folding it in a spiral.
Once your tree has taken shape, bend the free edge into a loop.
We cut off a piece of ribbon, form a loop from it for hanging and pull it through the Christmas tree, and decorate the free tail with a coin (the easiest way is to glue it with double-sided tape). We tie a decorative bow on the hanging loop - your decor is ready!
Required:
DIY thread Christmas balls will turn out to be very, very impressive if you make them in different tones - for example, red, silver and gold. Try making Christmas balls with your own hands in different techniques- you can sew or knit balls, make them out of cotton wool with your own hands, or, for example, sew them out of felt - you can never have too many of these toys.
A DIY paper Christmas toy is made like this:
There is no additional need to decorate such a toy; it is already expressive.
Another ball option:
Or you can make a ball like this according to the master class:
Make identical decorative elements - for example, sprigs of holly (by the way, did you know that this is a symbol of joy and Christmas reconciliation?). The berries need to be glued to the leaf using glue, and then a decorative knot should be made - this will give the berries volume.
We sew each piece together in pairs. By the way, it is best to sew it with contrasting threads; it will be fun and elegant. How to make New Year's decorations voluminous? Stuff them with holofiber before sewing them up completely! Straighten the product well, so the Christmas tree toy will be filled more evenly. You can use the back of a pencil for stuffing.
Sew on decorative elements and your New Year's toy ready!
