How to decorate a Christmas tree in blue and silver tones
Balls, beads, icicles, bows, bells of the chosen color, buying in the store is no problem. The main thing is that they are not mismatched and match in shade. After all, indigo, turquoise, ultramarine, azure - all this is blue. It would take a long time to list the nuances of his palette.
If the tree itself is very fluffy and beautiful, sometimes it is decorated with a very small amount of bluish and silver beads and balls. Such brevity looks elegant and expressive. The top of the spruce - a star or spire - is the traditional end.
Glowing electric garlands and illumination must be consistent with the main color scheme. Gold or colored ones would be inappropriate. Cool white lights are the only correct option for the chosen range.
So that the winter beauty is not alone in the interior, blue and silver colors should accompany her in other New Year’s compositions placed in the room. Gift wrapping, Christmas wreaths, and candles are chosen in this tone.
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 the tree: 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.
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.
Psychologists believe that the combination of these colors contributes to a feeling of organization, planning new things and peace of mind. Of course, you can achieve emotional peace in different ways, but why not take this advice: celebrate the New Year under the tree, which gives a feeling of peace with all its brilliance and sparkle.
