1. We begin with the tablecloth. It must be perfect, spotless and wrinkle. Therefore razutyuzhte it so that left only one longitudinal fold. And to keep the cloth from stretching, and ears guests - from knocking utensils and appliances, bed under her molton (cotton flannel), tying him to the legs.

2. As for style tablecloths, then there are different options. The easiest - update last year, embroidering on it some bright picture with New Year's story (such as pine branch).

3. Contrary to accepted opinion that the tablecloth should hang down from the table at 15-20 cm, cover with table cloth, "maxi", falling to the floor.

4. Cover with a round table cloth, and lay a square scrap of fabric - gold or even white - and combined the cloth is ready. A rectangular table cover, say, a blue cloth, and her all around sew "skirt" - gathered folds of yellow cloth.

5. Now take care of napkins. Pastel shades leave for another holiday! On New Year's color napkins and tablecloths should be contrasting: for example, yellow combined with green or blue, golden - with red.

6. Beautifully lined with a napkin - a great table decoration. We expand the three small but very important secret.

First: Serving suited for fine linen, melange, and even better - cotton napkins 30x30 cm in size, but if you're going to lay out their complex shapes, the size of napkins should be bigger - 50x50 cm
Second: always nakrahmalte them.
Third: make sure that when ironing napkins are not stretched - the smoother side, the more beautiful obtained figures.

7. If you prefer a "modest" napkins, get their rings - the very "change", which can become the final touches festive songs. Exquisitely look porcelain, marble, silver. However, personally can do no less than the original - from flowers, beads and even ordinary curtain rings. Or bind lace napkins - they look romantic, but if gilded or silvered cord - even elegant.

8. To make sure your table is not inferior to those which lay at dinner parties, please be cards with the names of the guests. They can be ordered at the press, but it's easier to cut out most of the usual New Year's cards. If the card is double, put her in a diner plate, and if single, leaning against the glass.

9. Your party guests remember for a long time, if you will prepare for each of them gifts. However, bought in the store does not go to any comparison made with his own hands - well, for example, with boutonnieres. For its making you need to spruce branches and a few flowers (yes, if the flowers alive, and even tapes - such as insulating tape, which is sold in floral shops).

Broke off a large branch of a small, take one or two flowers and seal it with a bunch of wire or thread. To the end of the evening flowers did not become pathetic, the ends of stems, wrap tapes. Then the lower part of bunches again "zateypiruyte" mask decorative braid, ribbon, or a brilliant thread. Arrange on plates boutonnieres guests.

10. You can wrap the foil or colored paper, small boxes and embedded in every note with comic predictions and New Year wishes.

11. New Year's Eve is not complete without dance. So most likely greater tree you have to replace a small table. You have a no? Then make a song with a potted flower. Ideal blooming rozhdestvennik, red anthurium, lily, and puansettiya (without it, the West does not do any Christmas table).

Dampen oasis (porous sponge, retain water) and fasten it to the bottom of the flat vase tape. In the middle set long thin candles, almost parallel to the table, insert the spruce branches, and between them - flowers.

12. Closer to the center of the table put the ice bucket and champagne at the edges - candlesticks (unless, of course, candles are not used in the composition), and oranges, in which the Plug on three or four Bengal fire. Light at the same time all the candles and lights - and get a real carnival fireworks.

13. Once arrange meals, spread between miniature toys (angels, snakes) and sprinkle glitter on which the table literally shine.

14. And finally, a little trick: to casually invited not mistake their glasses, beneath the feet of glasses colored round napkins.

Tete-a-tete with her beloved

15. You are going to celebrate New Year's alone with her beloved? Then you need a small table, for example, coffee. Could not be better fit into the "script" and a red tablecloth, do not waste the color red is considered a symbol of love and passion. Instead, the tablecloth is quite suitable inexpensive shiny lining. And if vyshete her two monogram - and his favorite - the tablecloth will not price.

16. And now put on the table tree. Just remember, she, like everything on the table, must be exclusive. Take pineapple, Plug it in some fir branches adorned with decorative ribbon and sequins - and a tropical tree is ready.

17. Do not interfere on the table and decorative composition. It is, of course, you can buy in a store. But why miss an opportunity to show off their talents? Why make it easier than ever. Take a small flat bowl and using tape to attach the bottom of an oasis. Plugging in a spruce branches, candles, using toothpicks - tropical fruit - that's all the wisdom.

18. Indispensable attribute of the evening for two - candles. In the West, now in general real "candle" boom. So that stocks them in unlimited quantity: scented, gel, curly, floating in glasses, standing on tables, TV, gold and all shades of red. Light the candles, while turning off all the chandeliers, sconces and even garlands. Their mysterious shimmer even skeptical that evening turns into romance.

19. Would you like a New Year's Eve "conduct" mood favorite? Then please be flavors and change them during the evening. For example, sprinkling a few drops of aromatic oil on the spruce branches, meet your favorite fresh smell of pine needles. Toward the middle of the night to cheer him up a coffee aroma. Well, if you want to call it a storm of passion, put in a small bowl dried rose petals and sprinkle them with pink or lavender oil.

20. Think about how you will give your favorite gift, because even the most common and inexpensive thing, presented in the form of surprise, may be remembered for a long time. Suppose you want to donate a bottle of cognac, his favorite brand. Pitch for her case in the form of a Christmas tree. To do this, take the pine branches of the same length (just over the height gift), and overlaid them a bottle, and then tie the top of the "rain" or a bright ribbon. Decorate the Christmas tree as a surprise for the most successful pictures, where you were sealed together, put it on the table, and at the right time - again! - And the case aside. The stunning effect is guaranteed!

In the family

21. Decorating for a family holiday table requires less imagination and invention. So, put in the living room is the biggest table and cover with a white linen tablecloth. To the evil spirit bypassed your house party, at each corner of the table put on the head of garlic. And so the house was plenty, find a place for the saucer with the candy, cookies and coins.

22. In the center of the table, place a very simple but very effective decoration. On a small mirror without a frame, set a large candle. Saucer, on which it stands, mask twigs, foil. Spread around the large red, rubbed to a glossy shine, apples, and where shall be cuttings, insert a small candle. Between Apples Spread shiny beads.

23. Now for Christmas ornaments. Salicaceae branches cut into small twigs, and seal it in the form of asterisks. The junction seal a thin wire, then okraste toys in a variety of colors, or (which is now especially fashionable in the West) keep in its natural form. From the hay roll balls, wrap them "rain", a brilliant thread and also hang instead of traditional glass toys.

24. By the way, why instead of usual Christmas tree will not please the guests "fruit"? Multi-colored apples, oranges, grapes, pomegranates do not spread in the vase and Lay cones. Three or four "fruit" trees, "planted" along the table, will look very original.

25. And children will delight the sea "sweet" Christmas tree. A piece of cardboard roll in the form of a cone. Cut to the stability of the base, then thickly obkleyte "Christmas tree" candy in colorful wrappers and uveshayte mandarins.
