Choice of colors
This is the first thing you need to decide. If you thoughtlessly hang anything on a tree, the holiday will not be so atmospheric. It is important to remember some rules here.
Which colors are the most self-sufficient?
It is better to assign a special role to certain colors. New Year trees in yellow and golden style look impressive. This does not mean that other colors should be completely absent. On the contrary, their presence is mandatory, but yellow should play the main role.

Contrary to prevailing stereotypes, using shades of gray and silver you can create a festive mood.

A good option is to concentrate on chocolate. In general, this color is very fashionable now. The fact is that it appeared in New Year’s interior design quite recently.

These three colors are also suitable for supporters of astrology and horoscopes, because they are considered conducive to harmony and prosperity. Interestingly, these same combinations are most often used in decoration on the occasion of most holidays.
The golden color can be added using bells, ribbons and sprinkles. Silver most often appears in the form of snowflakes and tinsel. Chocolate is the color of gingerbread and pine cones.

But the palette may not be limited to one main color. The important point is whether the colors match or not. We will help you figure this out below.
What colors can be combined
The most New Year's colors are red, green, gold and silver. Most often they are mixed. But almost any paint can find its place on a holiday tree.
There is one rule: you can only combine colors of the same depth and intensity. Pastel colors look harmonious with pastel ones, and flashy colors look harmonious with flashy ones.

Here are the best color options for the New Year:
- Green, champagne and gold
- Yellow, beige and brown
- Ice blue, lilac and silver
- Bright purple and blue
- Ivory, pewter and blue-green
- Blue, white and silver
- Red and green
- Green and white
But the main thing is to remember that not everything has been invented yet. You have huge scope for creativity and your own discoveries. Don't limit yourself to these limits.

New Year is a joyful and magical holiday. Lush outfits, catchy combinations and interesting finds are more appropriate here. And the most important thing in decorating a Christmas tree is individuality. First of all, you should like her.

What colors should not be combined
The wrong choice of palette can reduce the festive atmosphere to a minimum. And here neither lush bows nor huge glass balls will help. Of course, some shades of color can be combined with any color. But at the same time, in classic design it is customary to avoid contact between crimson and green, blue and red, yellow and violet. The latter association is usually regarded as a symbol of bad taste and arrogance.

If you decide to use just such combinations, then it would be better to place the colors at some distance. But there are no clear rules for decorating a New Year's tree. Everything is very individual and direct.

How to choose a Christmas tree in blue and silver tones
If you haven’t purchased a spruce tree yet, you need to take this feature into account - the bright green of the pine needles is not the best background for blue decorations.
Fortunately, both artificial and live spruce trees come in blue. Among the artificial Christmas trees you can choose:
- bluish,
- with silvered tips of branches,
- completely silver,
- white.
With such original trees you can create the image of a miracle Christmas tree in the kingdom of Santa Claus. It will reflect the triumph of winter: white sparkling snow under a bright sky. The January image that such a tree carries will be a charming decoration for a warm home holiday.
Skilled hands make their own Christmas trees: for example, a cardboard cone decorated with blue and silver balls. Or a turquoise felt spruce with silver stars. Homemade fir trees from various objects - even plates and books - look cute and unexpected. They also use the advantages of all shades of the marine palette.
How can you decorate it?
The simplest solution to implement your favorite idea is to make toys with your own hands. This will only enhance the joy of anticipating the holiday and bring more originality to the “blue” project. Implement it with children - give them the opportunity to gain many skills.
Choose paper of your favorite tone - colored, corrugated, shiny. Take scissors and make crackers, balls, crystals, icicles using any technique (quilling, origami, three-dimensional toys using a template).
A can of silver paint will help you make wonderful things from pine cones, branches, and bottles. You should use the simplest materials:
- old newspapers,
- booklets,
- roll bushings.
- remnants of material from applications.
Silver foil has always been used to decorate spruce trees : it can be used to wrap not only nuts, but also small toys of suitable size. Snowflakes and angels are knitted from blue yarn. In any home there will be sequins, sparkles, beads, and ribbons that will decorate homemade masterpieces.
New Year tree style
Nowadays, more and more often, New Year celebrations are subordinated to some style or theme. This is expressed in design features, holiday menus or clothing. But the most important thing that creates the atmosphere is, of course, the decor. Therefore, we propose to consider several modern and current styles of spruce decoration.
Minimalism in the design of the New Year tree
This fashion trend came to us from the West. It is designed to highlight natural beauty. Therefore, within its framework, everything unnecessary is removed. Minimalists believe that just a garland is enough for a New Year's tree.

Pink as a separate art
There are people who decorate their holiday in pink. It is a symbol of romance, playfulness and cheerfulness. To fulfill your plan, it is advisable to acquire a pink artificial Christmas tree.
If there is only a green tree, it doesn’t matter. It can be hung with balloons, strawberries and tinsel.

Marine style in Christmas tree decoration
When it’s cold and snowy, and you want to imagine yourself on the beach, you can always decorate the main New Year’s tree in the “Sea-Sea” style. It will also set the theme for your original party. You can hang starfishes and skates, small sailboats, ribbon-waves, or any souvenirs brought from the coast on the tree.

Blooming garden on a Christmas tree
Why not grow, for example, roses on your holiday tree. With a successful combination of soft shades, you should get a beautiful spruce. There is also a hint of magic here. After all, the New Year is a time when absolutely everyone expects a miracle.
The only problem with this style is that there are few places where you can buy large and expressive decorative flowers. Most likely you will have to make them yourself from ribbons and paper.

Christmas tree in retro style
Another option that is gaining popularity every year. It is interesting because if you have antique things, then it is possible and even better not to buy a lot of toys, but to use your finds. Perhaps grandma’s chest with antiques remained in the house or something was lying around in the attic. In this way, you can make the tree a symbol of family history and the connection of generations.

Developing a family theme
New Year is a family holiday, so many celebrate it with their closest people. Hence another idea - to decorate the main tree of the evening with memorable photographs and gifts and decorate it in colors that are favorite and symbolic for your family.

Here are some tips on how to create a unique design:
- The colors of the decorations should echo the main palette of your home. It is recommended to take into account the color of the walls, ceiling and previously purchased toys.
- All items must correspond to the chosen topic. It will be better if the same motif can be traced even in different rooms.
- Try to choose monochrome compositions. But you shouldn’t limit yourself to one or two shades. Here is an example of using the red palette: pink-fuchsia-cherry-ruby-cranberry-burgundy.
Christmas tree in blue and silver tones
A traditional Christmas tree decorated with colorful toys creates a great mood.
However, there are modern design solutions that delight with their novelty: for example, decorating a spruce tree in one color scheme. You can achieve a unique effect in different ways. Outfits in gold, red, white, green colors are, of course, good. But the combination of blue and silver is an image that both household members and guests will like, thanks to the sparkling frosty freshness of this composition. A magical winter color will enter the house.
An exciting task: choosing the right spruce for blue and silver toys. And then get the desired result with crafts that you prepare with your own hands.
How to decorate a small Christmas tree
A new and popular eco-trend is Christmas trees in pots. The idea is that after the holiday you can plant the tree in your garden. But here the question arises, how to beautifully decorate a Christmas tree in a pot.

The main principle here is not to overdo it. You can get by with one garland. If you really want to, add no more than ten sized balls. But a young Christmas tree oversaturated with toys and decorations will look very ridiculous.
It is better to replace the pot with a wicker basket or a festively painted bucket. They also use artificially aged wooden boxes and flowerpots.

Christmas tree in powdery tones with handmade elements
Delicate powdery and pink shades have been very popular in room decor for some time now and have already migrated to the New Year theme. A Christmas tree decorated with pink, powdery and milky glitter toys will look stylish and modern. You can add special charm and comfort to your design using organza ribbons, which are easy to make with your own hands.
Another interesting idea for decorating a Christmas tree is the use of decorative feathers. These can be real ostrich feathers or artificial plastic imitation with glitter. They can be placed with the base inward and lowered down the branches between toys and ribbons.
You can support such a delicate powdery and shiny design of the Christmas tree with festive decorative pillows. You can decorate pillowcases for them yourself with rhinestones and sequins to match the decor of the Christmas tree. Such pillows will look cozy on the sofa or on the floor of the fireplace or the spruce tree itself.
What can you hang on a New Year tree?
At New Year's fairs there are a lot of different products for decorating the New Year's tree. Some people prefer to make toys with their own hands, some buy expensive balls and garlands. But still, the unchanged attributes of the New Year remain constant.
It’s hard to imagine a Christmas tree without toys in the shape of Santa Claus, hares, houses and pine cones. There are also abstract options: stars, circles or snowflakes.

Pink romance: flowers and butterflies in winter
Christmas tree decorations in the form of butterflies and flowers look very fresh, modern and stylish. For this design, it is better to prefer delicate pink shades and combine them with a milky color.
Flowers can be used artificial or fresh.
Advice!
It is better to use live roses on a long stem and deepen it towards the tree trunk, leaving the bud on the branch. You can insert the base of the stem into a capsule with a solution or into an oasis so that the flower remains fresh for a long time.
It is better to decorate the top of such a Christmas tree with a branch with fluffy earrings to match the main color of the toys.

Next New Year's Eve, a live spruce will no longer be relevant. This year's trend is a wall panel made of spruce or pine branches. They can be purchased at florist stores. But some find materials in parks or forests. This method is not only a tribute to fashion, but also a budget saver.

To make a panel, you need to stock up on branches, each subsequent one slightly shorter than the previous one. We lay them out in the shape of a pyramid. You can secure the structure to the wall with screws with hooks, and decorate it with the same toys as a regular Christmas tree.

What kind of interior would a Christmas tree in blue and silver be suitable for?
The blue beauty will fit perfectly into a modern, light interior. It will look good on a brown background. Only where there are a lot of yellow and red draperies will it be dissonant with the overall color. And a similar color that dominates the room is contraindicated for her: she will get lost in such a room.
It is important to choose decorations not only for the Christmas tree, but also for the entire interior. Garlands, compositions with branches and candles, tinsel and rain, wreaths - everything is perfect for a single design in azure and silver tones. Store-bought blue candles should be decorated with sparkling stars.
Christmas tree decoration styles for the New Year 2020
Traditions borrowed from other peoples are becoming more and more firmly established here in Russia. Such decor will fully justify itself. Here are two design trends recommended for the New Year 2020.
American style
A very stylish option using a minimum number of elements. Most often, long chains of words with good wishes are used. The obligatory companion of the American-style Christmas tree is the symbol of the year. Large bows and stars will also find a place for themselves here. Family photos in frames and transparent glass balls will look beautiful.

One important point! The tree with this design should be medium or large in size. After all, a small tree will simply get lost in its decorations.
Scandinavian minimalism
The style is aimed at emphasizing the beauty of the New Year's beauty herself. The color scheme here is created from two or three shades of blue. You will have to do without excessive shine. Although this style is many years old, it does not age at all. However, every year requires a new flavor. This time you can enter:
- Ink colors
- Silver and shades of blue-green
- Gold combined with purple
Mice and rats can be housed on tree branches. But the main companion of the Scandinavian style is Santa’s white reindeer.
