Forest beauties are harmful to nature, artificial trees are boring. Want creativity? Who said that a Christmas tree has to be a Christmas tree? The main New Year symbol can be made of anything: a stepladder, books, photographs, paper, garlands, pine cones! Five non-standard ideas for a New Year tree are collected here, but there is no limit to your imagination! Creativity - go ahead!
1: Christmas tree from a stepladder
A trend that came to us from the West, but is beginning to take root among creative youth. The simplest, but non-standard alternative to the traditional New Year's guest.
Every home has one or two stepladders, and most importantly, after the holidays, they can continue to perform their functions around the house.
Garlands, lanterns, and other New Year's decorations on such a tree will look completely different.
2: Christmas tree made of books
An idea for those who read a lot and cannot live without books, because this tree will need a lot of them. The New Year tree will turn out if you lay out the books in tiers. Pay attention to the bottom layer. The size of the tree depends on its diameter. It is better to choose voluminous books. You need to place them with their spines outward and slightly protruding edges. Decorate the finished tree with a garland of lights.
3: Paper Christmas Tree
A miniature paper Christmas tree can be placed in every room, and you can also decorate your office with it. Such a New Year's guest does not take much time and effort to make, and the material is always at hand. In addition, you can decorate it to your taste, color and imagination. And after the holidays, you will not have to throw it away. The cone of the tree can be made round, square, triangular or accordion-shaped. You can use white, colored or wrapping paper. To give the shape stability, the paper can be glued to cardboard. For decoration, use everything that is at hand: sequins, buttons, beads, threads, garlands.
4: Christmas tree on the wall
The simplest Christmas tree in the style of minimalism. Compact and stylish. The outline of the Christmas tree on the wall can be created using a garland with lights, branches and beads, and other materials that can be placed on the wall along the outline of the future Christmas tree. You can fix it with tape, then after the holidays it will be easier to remove it from the wall.
Another good option would be photos with the brightest moments of this year. Cover the outline of the tree with photos and decorate it with a flashing garland. And for the office, you can make such a tree from multi-colored balls or paper. You can also attach photos, New Year's balls or multi-colored pieces of paper to the wall (a great option for the office) so that the silhouette resembles a tree.
5: New Year tree made from natural materials
An eco-friendly tree can be made from pine cones, nuts, acorns and other natural materials that are available in sufficient quantities. The pine cones or nuts are glued to a cardboard cone or to each other. After that, place the eco-tree in a pot or on a stand. You can decorate it with garlands and other decor. You can also pre-coat the pine cones with gold or silver spray paint.
