What is the new year without a tree and tinsel? Multicolored garlands decorate the green beauty, make her bright, festive, elegant. Designers have brought into reality the most bizarre types and shades of tinsel. But it is not always possible to beautifully decorate a New Year's tree by attaching one or the other garland to it. How to decorate a Christmas tree with tinsel?
Instructions
Step 1
First, decide on the size of the tree. The larger the Christmas tree, the larger you need to take toys and decorations. And, on the contrary, on a small Christmas tree, tinsel of a small diameter will look harmonious.
Also match the length of the garland. Your best bet is to buy long tinsel that you can trim if necessary.
Step 2
Decide in what style and color scheme you will decorate the tree. Modern designers have many ideas on this subject. The Christmas tree can shimmer in different shades, or be sustained in a certain color scheme.
If you want the tree to be the same color, purchase several of the same garlands in the store at once. It is important here to correctly combine matte tinsel and shiny, as well as to focus on different sizes of jewelry in diameter.
When choosing two shades, pay attention to the fact that the colors are combined with each other. In this version, shiny or matte ribbons can be twisted together, forming a single garland, and then hang the decoration on a tree.
Step 3
Place the tinsel horizontally on the tree, spreading it on the spruce paws and along the diameter of the crown.
If you decorate the tree with stripes, in the style of two or three colors, then the tinsel can be placed vertically, from the very top of the tree. Garlands can spiral down the crown, chaotically, or fall straight down. In this case, the spruce itself will help to determine the choice, because the convenience of decoration will depend on the nature of its branches, neat or spready.
You can also decorate the tree with color spots. Smooth transitions from shade to shade look especially beautiful. Then the tinsel can be placed conically straight or spirally from the top to the bottom of the spruce.
Step 4
Do not forget to decorate the base of the New Year tree, because this gives the composition a completeness. In addition, gifts are usually hidden under the spruce paws. Here tinsel will again come to the rescue, which can be placed in a circle around the trunk or form a small multi-colored snowdrift out of it.
Step 5
As a rule, only one tinsel is not used to decorate a Christmas tree. Complete the composition with beautiful Christmas balls, colorful rain, figurines, fruits. Don't forget the spire or star on top of the tree.
