There are two ways to create a joyful festive atmosphere in the house: visit a supermarket or New Year's fair to stock up on ready-made decor, or decorate the interior with window applications, paper toys and hand-made compositions. The most successful is considered a compromise, in which factory garlands, candles and balls are complemented by unique handicraft garlands, toys and crafts.
Natural composition of dry branches
For making homemade crafts or painting on glass, various materials are used that are easy to find in the bathroom or in the kitchen: toothpaste, soap bars, starch or flour for paste, adhesive tape. Toothpaste can be easily replaced with white gouache, but it has been used for a long time and willingly because of its suitable properties: even dried-up Aquafresh or Silka is wonderfully washed off with clean water, and it also has a slight pleasant smell.
If there are no real balls, you can always draw them
In addition to adhesives and coloring compounds, everything that can be found in a children's corner, a school table or in a box with New Year's accessories is used:
- thick cardboard;
- colored paper;
- multi-colored foil;
- glass beads and beads;
- beads and sequins;
- old Christmas toys;
- pieces of fabric, yarn and leather;
- wooden and metal parts;
- tinsel;
- chains, etc.
The choice of material depends on the craft. For example, beautiful window decorations for the New Year are made from ordinary white paper. These are primarily snowflakes, Christmas trees and origami themed toys. Thick cardboard is useful when making stencils or templates for drawings on glass, and strips of colored paper are useful for a fun garland chain that can decorate a window opening.
Paper Christmas trees and stars - traditional New Year's figures on the window
Permanent home "helpers" are usually used as tools:
- scissors;
- stationery knife;
- sewing needles (with a set of threads);
- brushes of all sizes;
- sponges;
- toothbrushes;
- wire cutters, etc.
Almost all of the listed tools and materials can be found at home, and if some are missing, they can be easily purchased at the store, spending a very modest amount.
How to decorate a window for the New Year
Usually, not one specific place in the apartment is decorated, but all or some rooms, so the design of windows for the New Year should be in harmony with the decoration of the rest of the interior. This is expressed in the selection of the same shades, repetitive motifs, patterns, ornaments. Some like the white and gold festive colors, others like the abundance of red, and still others like the combination of blue with a silver tint. It is better to start preparing when the main style is already selected and the palette is defined.
Sometimes just white is enough
Paper decorations
If there is no experience in preparing for the holiday or there is not enough free time, we offer the simplest and most advantageous option - decorating windows for the New Year from sheets of paper, white or colored. Even kids who have barely learned to hold scissors in their hands are happy to cut out snowflakes. A simple but effective procurement scheme is usually used:
This is how a sheet of paper is folded to cut a 6-angled snowflake
You can come up with hundreds of beautiful openwork patterns by experimenting with trimming the edges of the workpiece. More experienced fans of preparing for the New Year have their own “branded” schemes, and beginners can borrow ready-made templates for a start:
To cut a realistic snowflake, you need to try
Complex schemes, but they are worth it
Original options for 8-, 6- and 4-corner snowflakes
Having cut out a large number of snowflakes of different sizes and shapes, you can glue them to the glass using a paste or soapy solution in different ways:
In the form of a Christmas tree and in a chaotic manner
Paper is also suitable for making flat or three-dimensional compositions from houses, winter trees, animals, fairy-tale characters.
New Year's industrial landscape on the windowsill and city sketches on glass
Drawings on templates and stencils
To facilitate the hard work of amateur decorators, they came up with templates and stencils. Ready-made sets of New Year's themes can be purchased at the store or downloaded from the Internet, and then printed out and used for the New Year to transfer images to windows.
Christmas story on the night window
How are templates different from stencils? The templates are outlined, and then the drawing is painted or left in its original form. Stencils are usually used immediately for painting, although you can also circle along the inner contour.
Spray technique using a stencil
There is a mirror on the photo instructions, but the same steps are performed to transfer it to the window glass.
We cut out a snowflake from paper (the contours of a house, animal, tree).
We glue a snowflake on the window with a soapy solution. You can also use ordinary water, because after painting the stencil will immediately have to be peeled off.
We dilute the toothpaste with a small amount of water, but so that it does not drain, but remains a little thick. We take a toothbrush and dip it in the prepared solution.
With your finger, we remove the bristles of the brush and sharply release it so that the spray purposefully falls in the area of \u200b\u200bthe stencil. It looks beautiful when there are more splashes in the center, and they dissipate along the edges.
Carefully peel off the paper stencil, trying not to smear the splashes.
It turned out a light New Year's image of a snowflake. To decorate a window with similar patterns, you will need quite a bit: half a tube of toothpaste, an old toothbrush and stencil paper.
When working with stencils, instead of a brush, you can use a sponge for washing dishes. We cut off a piece of soft foam rubber, roll it into a roll, tie it with thread or tape to make a kind of “brush”. Then we blot the cutouts on the stencil.
Sponge technique
A few more funny stencils and templates for windows for the New Year:
Decorative pendants and garlands
It is customary to hang garlands everywhere: on the Christmas tree, on the walls, under the ceiling. They decorate houses outside, decorate trees in the garden and small architectural forms in the yard. For windows, this is also a suitable decoration, because a curtain rod is successfully used as a mounting point.
Garland of artificial greenery with cones and snowflakes suspended on threads
A garland can be made from anything, in fact, these are various objects suspended on a thread or ribbon. Traditionally, flags, light New Year's balls, stars, bead or glass beads are strung on a thick thread or strong lace. Children love to make lanterns or caps out of colored paper and attach them to a thread mixed with snowflakes and pieces of cotton wool to represent snow.
Luxurious natural composition on the background of homemade garlands
Instead of long garlands, you can use a laconic but sophisticated decor - New Year's pendants made of Christmas tree decorations, tinsel and glass beads.
Christmas ball pendants on satin ribbons and sparkling gold and silver garland
Stars on the kitchen window, unexpected citrus decoration, hearts, dolls
DIY window sill decorations
To make the window truly beautiful for the New Year, traditionally decorate not only glass, but also window sills. The fantasy of winter holiday lovers knows no bounds: along with the usual Christmas trees, Snow Maidens and Santa Clauses, natural compositions of branches and moss, romantic arrangements with candles, snow-covered dollhouses appear.
Remember the magic snow globe, inside which, with a slight shake, a real snowfall begins? It is difficult to make such a toy with your own hands, but we will consider how to decorate a window sill for the New Year using ordinary glass jars. Behind the glass, as in that ball, there is a small winter fairy-tale world with houses, forest animals and Christmas trees.
New Year's gifts under tin lids
There are two options for the design of compositions in banks:
- at the bottom of the jar, closed with a lid;
- on the lid of an inverted jar.
Both options are equally popular, but the second - with an inverted jar - is more often used if the vessel is too deep and it is difficult to reach the bottom. Arranging items on the lid is much easier.
Figurines under a glass jar
Brief instructions for making crafts from inverted cans:
- we find several different-sized glass jars with screw-on lids;
- lay the inverted lids upside down;
- we place miniature figures of animals, snowmen, people, as well as Christmas trees, houses, etc. on the covers;
- we twist the jars, checking whether the figures fit in size;
- if the composition is successful, open the jars and glue the selected items.
Then we finally twist the jars - the original decorations for the New Year for the windowsill are ready!
From the same glass jars you can make beautiful candlesticks. We paint the glass walls by hand with paints that do not emit harmful substances when heated, and we place small candles inside the vessels. We decorate the upper part with bells, mini-garlands, tinsel.
Magic lights for the window sill
Candlesticks with cones
New Year in glasses
Unusual and at the same time natural compositions are obtained from natural materials: cones, twigs of coniferous and deciduous trees, moss, acorns, dry grass, snags, etc. They are perfectly combined with artificial snow, serve as an excellent background for miniature figurines of bullfinches, deer, hares , cubs.
"Trees" from dry branches
From the dried branches, you can build a snow-covered "tree" and fix it in a jar or vase. To revive the picture, we plant bullfinches, tits or woodpeckers on the branches. But since the tree is New Year's, and therefore magical, anything you want can grow on it: gingerbread cookies and sugar gingerbread, golden beads and small Christmas balls, key chains with photos of relatives and just satin bows.
Just bumps growing from little chocks
The composition can be made much brighter if the glass vase is replaced with a gilded bottle, and the twigs, along with the decorations hung on it, are covered with sparkles. The easiest option is to buy decorative hairspray, silver or gold, and carefully work each branch.
Both golden balls and red berries look festive
When we decorate the window sill for the New Year with our own hands, we always try to bring something personal, individual, so home-made compositions look warmer, homely and family.
Candles and illumination
Twinkling lights are a must-have component of both a fun and mysterious winter holiday. Even simple white pictures on the windows for the New Year look different if they are illuminated with multi-colored garlands or candles. If the window frame made of Christmas tree or pine branches is enlivened with sparkling illumination, it will look much brighter and more positive.
The theme of lanterns-candlesticks is interestingly beaten
To make candles look more status and solemn, they are placed in bronze or crystal candlesticks and decorated with tinsel, “rain” or beads. But there are many options when you can create a cozy and romantic atmosphere even without pretentious candlesticks.
Candlestick "house", which can be made with your own hands from a sheet of plywood and an exquisite vintage arrangement
Options for installing candles on the windowsill
Electric garlands are the most spectacular New Year's entourage. Neon, white, multi-colored lights turn even the most boring atmosphere into a festive one. Often thin threads of electric garlands decorate the Christmas tree, and also hang them along the walls or under the ceiling. They look no less advantageous as a decor for windows and window sills.

Christmas windows as part of interior design
When decorating a room for the New Year, one must adhere to the rule of proportionality. If you decide to decorate both a chest of drawers, and a window, and a table in the center of the room, and even install a Christmas tree, then you need to do this very carefully. A large number of bright decorations turns a light festive atmosphere into a booth and quickly gets bored. Sometimes a simple design of window panes is enough.
Snowflakes with toothpaste instead of frosty patterns
You can create an unobtrusive festive background using the same flickering electric garlands hung at different points in the room.

Modesty - down with. Decorated windows for the New Year using stencils are a ticket to a festive mood and a luxurious life.
December is the time to prepare for the New Year holidays. Some, in order to feel all the magic of the holiday, buy gifts for relatives and friends in advance, others turn their home into a real fairy tale.
You can beautifully decorate both plastic and wooden windows. You don’t need to spend a dime on stencils with a New Year theme. It is enough to print and cut out a template with snowflakes, reindeer, snowmen or New Year's socks (boots) for gifts.
Using several stencils, you can create a completely unique creative work on the window or decorate the window glass around the perimeter with a border of a repeating pattern. A slight asymmetry will make the image as natural as possible. It is not necessary to observe mirroring when gluing templates - slight deviations will add dynamism and volume to applications on the window.
An example of a New Year's composition, which, if not claiming to be an artistic masterpiece, will plunge you headlong into childhood memories.
The top of the glass is decorated with spruce branches, on which openwork New Year's balls hang. In the middle of the composition, a sleigh with reindeer seems to be flying through the air. Santa Claus sits in them with a big bag of gifts. Light snow is flying by. On the glass below you can see snow-covered houses, cheerful snowmen and a beautiful Christmas tree.
(Initially, draw the idea of \u200b\u200bthe location of the stencils on the window on paper)

Decoration of windows with vytynanki for the New Year
The intricate, patterned vytynanki on the windows are nothing more than cut-out figures and patterns from white paper. The technique is simple and it is easy to make vytynanki with thin paper sheets, nail scissors (or a clerical knife) and a soap solution at hand - paper pictures are best attached to it.
How to make a soap solution for gluing decorations on windows?
Recipe for the preparation of the solution: put ¼ of a piece of (white!) Soap into a cup of water, pour water and stir thoroughly. When the mixture becomes homogeneous, it is applied with a wide brush from a set of paints on paper and carefully glued to the glass. When the vytynanki dry up, from above to create a “wow” effect, they are sprinkled with artificial snow, just a little bit.
Stained glass drawings on the New Year theme
New Year's stained-glass windows with Christmas trees, snowflakes, Santa Claus, the Snow Maiden and other thematic patterns are created using all the same stencils and a spray with artificial snow.
To make a New Year's stained-glass window, a paper stencil is moistened on one side with water and pressed tightly against the glass. Then artificial snow is sprayed and, when the drawing dries (it takes about 20 minutes), the stencil is removed.
White toothpaste is also suitable for decorating windows. To do this, it is diluted with water, thoroughly whipped until foam is formed and applied to a stencil glued to the window with a toothbrush. In order for the paste to be sprayed in the right way, a finger is drawn up over the wet bristles and released.

The theme of eco-style is continued by linen decor. With the help of textile elements on the windows, it is not only easy to create a cozy atmosphere in the house, but also to make a compliment Yellow Earth Pig- a symbol of the upcoming 2019.

Applying various patterns to windows for the New Year has already become a good tradition in Russia. And it is right. It is worth it in any, even the most simple way, to decorate the windows - and the spirit of the holiday is already knocking on the house. As if from a fairy tale - patterns on the glasses, as if drawn by the hand of Santa Claus. And how children love to decorate windows - for them this is a prelude to the New Year's celebration.
The tradition of decorating windows for the New Year came from the deep past. Even the Celts decorated shutters and window sills with spruce branches to ward off evil spirits. For the same purpose, the Chinese hung ringing decorations in front of the windows - so that melodious bells would scare away demons with their sound.
In Russia, the tradition of putting pictures on the windows for the New Year appeared during the time of Peter I, who, by his decree, ordered not only to decorate Christmas trees, but also to decorate dwellings. This tradition took root most firmly in our country during the Soviet era. At that time, windows were decorated with snowflakes, fabric compositions and, of course, toothpaste.
Since then, technology has come a long way. Appeared special washable paints for painting on glass, you can find many original patterns in order to draw even the most unusual drawings on windows for the New Year.
New Year's windows: plots and compositions
New Year's drawings on the windows famous for their indescribable mood. A professional artist with the help of paints can create a real masterpiece on any window. What is most often depicted? Traditional New Year's stories:
- snowflakes

But it is not necessary to be limited only to the New Year theme. An excellent addition to traditional plots can be:

- funny little men
- bears
- houses
- snow scenery
- Christmas trees
And of course, Christmas stories:
- angels
- candles
- present

Required condition: New Year's drawings on the window should be light, even airy, cheerful and, of course, colored.
Samples and stencils
If you are not a professional artist, no problem. Now it is very easy to find a variety of templates for New Year's stories. Using them, it is easy to create a masterpiece on glass with your own hands.
Where to get stencils? The easiest way is to go and buy at the store. Stationery stores and supermarkets offer a large selection of templates for drawings on the windows to the New Year.
Please note: templates can be purchased separately or as part of a set of paints
But what if the required samples are not found? Then we make them ourselves.
Stencil manufacturing technology
For this you will need:
- a piece of thick paper and plastic
- scissors
- stationery knife
- tracing paper or transparent paper, or "carbon paper"
- pencil and eraser
- ruler and gauge
First of all, we find a sample, that is, a drawing. It can be "borrowed" from a book or magazine (any drawing or a special stencil), from the Internet, or draw it yourself. If you draw yourself, you can apply the composition directly to the drawing paper.
We apply tracing paper to the sample and redraw it. We cut out along the contour and apply it to the drawing paper, draw it. This stage can be bypassed if you use carbon paper and transfer the image directly to whatman paper.
We cut out the resulting drawing on whatman paper with the help of a clerical knife and scissors so that the outer part - the stencil - remains intact. Actually, the drawing itself can then be painted and attached to the window. with soap. The stencil is ready.
Preparing to draw on the window
Depending on how the drawings will be applied on glass for the New Year, you will need different tools. But be sure to get:
- brushes of various shapes and thicknesses
- toothbrush
- scrapers and sticks
- window cleaning cloth
- jar for water
And, of course, you need to stock up on stencils, imagination and patience.
Features of the window painting process
New Year's drawings on glass can be applied using:
- stained glass paints
- toothpaste
- gouache
There are also quite exotic ways. For example, a pattern is applied to the glass with PVA glue, then sparkles and tinsel are stuck on it. It turns out funny fluffy drawings. But we will consider the features of the process of applying paint and toothpaste.
Drawings on windows for the new year are easier to apply using stencils. You already stocked them up, right?
We apply the stencil to the glass and apply with a brush paint or toothpaste. We wait until the paint dries slightly, then with the help of sticks we prescribe the details and remove the excess. With the help of a thin brush, we bring the drawing to perfection.
To achieve the effect of splashing, we moisten the toothbrush with water with a small addition of paint. Then use your finger to splatter the paint in front of the glass.
Tip: To make the drawing on the glass dry faster, you can use a hair dryer.
But the hair dryer can only be used in the weakest mode and with a cold air flow.
Draw on the windows with the child
Decorating a house with children is always a joy. This not only brings family members closer and gives moments of sincere joy. You can develop a real taste in children, awaken in them a talent for art.

To the entry "Drawings on the windows for the new year: colorful decorations with your own hands" 8 comments
We love painting windows with our daughter on New Year's Eve. For these purposes, I buy special stained glass paints, they come with several templates with different images, but basically, we come up with the drawings ourselves. It turns out very colorful. But we have never used toothpaste for painting on glass, a great idea, worth a try.
How well I read the article. Just wanted to paint the windows with the children for the New Year. It is a very good idea to paint them with toothpaste and gouache. I also really liked getting the splashing effect with a toothbrush. We ourselves would not have thought of this before. We will use with great pleasure your ideas for painting windows from the photo selection.
I picked up a lot of interesting ideas, I especially liked the ideas with toothpaste and stencils that can be glued with soap. As a child, I did this, but over time I forgot, and with the advent of my children, I had to come up with something. Purchased, of course, conveniently and quickly, but how interesting it is to make all the decorations with the children. The children were very proud that they did everything themselves, because the whole yard looks at our balcony and envy!
Very beautiful. I remember in the distant 90s, my sisters and I created similar magic on the windows. For this, gouache paints were used, the drawings were taken not from the head, but from the plots of New Year's cards. Thus, our windows acquired a fabulous look. They also decorated the doors, which were then painted dull white. Now there are a lot of means for jewelry!
Have you ever painted on windows? If not, we'll show you how to do it right!

How to draw New Year's drawings on the windows with paints, gouache?
Gouache is a word familiar to every artist. Almost everyone started painting with gouache. Watercolor and oil require a certain level of skill, while gouache "forgives" many errors in execution.
Gouache to draw on the windows is very simple:
- Find the right sketch.
- Buy good gouache. It is better to take art paints, and not cheap children's paints, which have a very low surface coverage.
- Buy a wide and thin brush.
- Transfer the drawing with brushes and paints to the surface of the window. Sometimes you need time to get the perfect drawing, as well as a couple of jars of clean water and a sponge to remove failed lines.
- Now your window is decorated with a gouache pattern in the New Year!
Advice! If gouache does not fit well on glass, mix it with liquid soap so that the consistency is quite thick. This will help the paint lay down more evenly, and save you from spending on window cleaner later on.
You can replace gouache with watercolor, but be prepared for the fact that watercolor is rather capricious in use and you are unlikely to be able to apply a dense layer. And another significant disadvantage of watercolor is that it is difficult to wash it off. It is much easier to wash off the gouache from the windows.
