Every family is preparing for the New Year 2021. Adults buy garlands and gifts, and children cut out snowflakes and write letters to Santa Claus. But you can decorate your apartment windows not only with snowflakes; in the year of the Ox you need to use as much decor as possible depicting this beautiful and hardworking animal.
Stencils for glass
This festive decor is accessible to everyone and does not require large expenses. All you have to do is download the desired stencil from the Internet, print it out, cut it out and glue it onto the glass.
In addition to bull figures, pictures of Christmas trees, New Year's toys, snowflakes, or even entire protruding pictures are suitable.
Toothpaste drawings
Decorating glass with toothpaste has been known since the Soviet shortage. Nowadays there are special cans with snow, but they don’t refuse toothpaste either. The principle is simple: a stencil is glued to the glass, and a foam sponge dipped in toothpaste is used to paint the entire area around it; after drying, the stencil is removed. The paste will create the effect of snow, and the unpainted part will be the picture. In addition to windows, you can also decorate mirrors in your apartment in this way.
Stickers
Funny stickers of Santa Claus, a snowman or a bull, the symbol of the year, looking into the windows will create a festive mood. They are not very expensive and easy to use. The pattern has a sticky surface. It is enough to remove the protective layer and stick it to the skim glass.In this process, the main thing is not to rush, so that the pattern sticks evenly to the surface of the glass.
Christmas wreath
This American decor has long taken root in our country; it is hung on the front door or window. You can buy such a New Year (Christmas) wreath in a store or even make it yourself from natural spruce, pine cones and toys or an artificial base, rain and bull figurines. Each detail of the wreath symbolizes special wishes for the New Year: the round shape is a symbol of life and eternity, the cones are prosperity, the berries are happiness and joy.
Paper garlands
Making a paper garland is not difficult, especially since you can prepare it together with your children. All you have to do is choose a picture, cut out the desired design 10–20 times, color it and glue it to a thread or tape.
The more garlands on the window, the more beautiful this decoration looks.
You can choose any picture for the garland: a bull, Christmas trees, snowflakes, Christmas decorations or deer.
Decorated apartment windows create a festive mood not only for the residents of the house, but also for passers-by, as they are visible from the street. And for the decor to be original, it is better to make it yourself.
