You have decided to celebrate your birthday at home. We thought out the menu, sent out invitations, signed up to the hairdresser and bought a new dress. But the mood is quite ordinary, there is no feeling of a holiday. If this is how you feel, then the diagnosis is clear: you have forgotten about the atmosphere of fun and joy, because you have not prepared the apartment for such an event at all. It's not only about cleaning, but also about decorating the space.
It is necessary
- - vase, flowers;
- - decorative candles;
- - beads and rhinestones;
- - Balloons;
- - fabric, braid, ribbons, pendants, rope;
- - natural materials, glue, ribbons;
- - clothespins, a can of car paint, photographs;
- - light and music.
Instructions
Step 1
Do a general cleaning. Wipe off dust, mop floors, look into nooks and crannies - let everything shine and sparkle. Choose the room in which you will place the holiday table Let it be bright and spacious, so that there is a place to dance and have fun. Now move on to the decoration.
Step 2
Decorate the table. In the center, you can put a vase of fresh flowers or a flowering houseplant. To make the pot look festive, tie it with a scarlet ribbon and tie a bow. You can arrange decorative candles in the shape of butterflies, for example, if it is summer, in the shape of snowmen, if it is winter. You can scatter large glass stones and rhinestones between dishes. Do not forget about napkin decorations, a little patience and your skill will receive a lot of positive reviews.
Step 3
The most popular decorations are bundles of balloons. But the idea is pretty hackneyed, so do not use balls in the room. It is better to secure the large bundles by sticking them out of the window and from the balcony. The guests, approaching your home, will immediately notice that the holiday begins already on the doorstep. Tie a daisy of balls on the handle of the front door, you can even more than one. This is a kind of hint to neighbors not to ask to make the music quieter, because you have a holiday.
Step 4
Cloth decoration. Buy a few meters of bright fabric (the exact amount depends on your financial capabilities and the items that you will decorate), even the cheapest one, as long as it shines. The first thing that can be decorated is chairs. If the width of the fabric allows, throw the linen over so that it completely covers the chair. Take a decorative string and start securing the fabric to the chair. The first winding is the back of the chair, you can make it by crossing the two ends and tying it like a gift box. The second step is to wrap the tape around the bottom of the seat, as if pinching the fabric. The legs of the chair do not need to be wrapped around and the canvas will hang freely. The composition can be supplemented with a satin ribbon bow or a thin ribbon with decorative ornaments, such as pendants or beads. Use the material to decorate the dance space and separate the table with equipment, for example, from the dancing guests. Here you will need a clothesline, through which it will be convenient to throw fabric and thin metallized chains (accessories).
Step 5
Flowers and natural materials. You can hire people to professionally decorate with real flowers. A panel of flowers will easily decorate one of the walls of the room. But if this is not possible, you should not worry, use the materials at hand. In the fall, you can collect cones, acorns, rowan, in the summer - beautiful garden flowers. With the help of rubber glue, beads and ribbons, you will compose compositions no worse than experienced craftsmen. You can add such decorations to a festive table or fix them on furniture handles or tulle, for example.
Step 6
Another idea would be a garland. But not an ordinary one, but a garland with "memory". You will need a braid for gold or silver, a package of clothespins, preferably white, a can of car paint to match the braid (silver or gold), your photos. Use a spray can to paint the clothespins, let them dry. Pull the braid like a garland around the room, now choose your photos - from children to adults, fasten them with clothespins to the braid. Guests will be pleasantly surprised.
