The most important winter holiday - New Year, is just around the corner. Therefore, you need to think about how to prepare for it now. Preparations include drawing up a menu for a festive table and decorating a house, in particular windows. There are two ways to decorate windows: using paper pictures or drawings. If everything is very clear about the first method, then when applying the second you need to know some of the nuances that will be discussed.
What is not recommended to paint on windows?
First of all, I would like to say that not every material is suitable for painting windows. If you do not know this, you can decorate the windows in such a way that then you will have to make a lot of efforts in order to remove the drawings from them.
Do not try to paint on the windows with watercolors. It is much more difficult to remove it from the glass surface than, for example, gouache. Also, you cannot use professional stained glass paints. By decorating the windows with this paint, you will no longer wash them. Choose carefully the material for painting in specialized stores.
How can you paint on windows?
Simple toothpaste is great for painting windows. You can also use gouache, artificial snow, and finger paints. Some children use stained glass paints to decorate windows. However, if you have chosen this particular material for painting, you should know that such patterns are not applied to the glass surface of windows.
How can a drawing be applied to windows?
With the question of what you can draw on the windows, we figured it out. Now a new one has arisen: how can a picture be applied to windows? If, of course, you have a talent for drawing, then you will not ask this question. This applies to those who have the desire and inspiration to decorate windows for the New Year, but do not have any skills. In this case, you can proceed as follows:
- Print any template you like using the printer, cut it out, and then redraw it onto the window.
- After printing the template, redraw it onto whatman paper. Then attach the drawing paper from the side of the street with tape. It will be very easy for you to draw with the selected material along the finished contour.
- Use a stencil. You can either buy it or make it yourself. Paint over the gaps in the stencil with paint or any other material of your choice. By the way, if you are using paint, then for convenience, apply it with a small piece of a sponge.
Following these recommendations, you can decorate windows for the New Year without any problems and fill your home with an unforgettable festive atmosphere.
