New Year 2020 is already approaching. It's time to start decorating your home. First of all, you need to think about how to decorate the hallway for the New Year. After all, this is the first room that guests will see on the eve of the holiday.
Most of the corridors are not very large, but they can also create a fabulous atmosphere for the approaching winter holidays.
An interesting option for decorating a hallway for the New Year
Features of the room
Don’t get too carried away when decorating the hallway if it is not large in size. The necessary atmosphere can be created with the help of small but expressive accents.
Decorating a small hallway
Here are some guidelines to keep in mind when decorating your hallway to maintain its functionality:
- In this usually small room you have to perform active actions: put on and take off outerwear, bend over to put on or take off your shoes. Therefore, the decor should not cause discomfort or even injury. It must be positioned so that it does not interfere with the performance of basic functions, that is, at the top.
- The size of decorative elements matters. You should not choose too large decor, which will visually make the hallway even smaller.
- The amount of decor is also important. Too many small details will visually overload the interior.
- It is not safe to use candles in tight spaces. It's better to leave them for decorating the living room.
Several ways to decorate your hallway for the New Year 2020:
Hallway decor with garlands
A garland in the hallway is a great option. Usually there is no window in this room. An additional light source, even decorative, will not be superfluous.
All you have to do is choose the right place:
- Often the garland is hung along a free wall. Curly light bulbs in the form of icicles, large balls, lanterns or snowflakes are suitable for this.
- If the light bulbs are small, then the garland is hung from the ceiling. The result will be the effect of visually enlarging the room due to the illumination of its upper part. If the ceiling is high, then the garland is complemented with pendants made of paper snowflakes or Christmas tree decorations on satin ribbons.
- You can use diode tape to decorate the frame of a mirror or a picture on the wall, a doorway, or a hanger.
- On a free wall, a diode strip is used to create an inscription or a decorative composition: a Christmas tree, a snowman.
A regular LED garland can be upgraded. For example, such multi-colored balls of thread.
Unusual DIY garland
Making your own decorative garland
They are easy to make. For this you need balloons, PVA glue, thread, scissors and tweezers. For decoration you can use buttons, sequins and other small details.
The ball is inflated so that it matches the size of the future toy. The threads are generously moistened with PVA glue, wound in a chaotic manner around the ball, and dried. The ball is pierced and removed with tweezers. The finished lampshade is attached to the garland.
Idea 1: Christmas tree
A Christmas tree as the main attribute of the New Year holiday should be in every home.
The usual live Christmas trees, which are happily littered with needles, are troublesome and no longer relevant. In addition, they are not suitable for some: small children or pets will not be able to pass by the sparkling beauty indifferently.
A small living space will also be an obstacle to a real Christmas tree. It's time to show your imagination and create your own Christmas tree using branches, balls, buttons, colorful paper, tinsel, etc.
Select a separate wall for the Christmas tree, determine the size of the future beauty based on the free space.
To create a Christmas tree on the wall, you can use garlands or toys. If you have no artistic ability at all, then it is better to buy a decorative sticker and place it on the wall.
In the future, the sticker can be supplemented with decorations, a star and other New Year's elements.
Signs and color of the Christmas tree
The familiar green Christmas tree has long been successfully replaced by beauties of white, blue, pink and other colors.
For example, a white Christmas tree decorated with white glass toys will help you start a new relationship. Cleanliness and abundance of light will attract only good people and sincere relationships to your home.
To attract financial well-being and radical changes in life next year, “reverse” Christmas trees are used, which need to be placed in the corner of the room. Such pyramids, like a piggy bank, will accumulate cash flows and will not allow them to leave your home.
You can enhance the effect of the “money” tree with the help of “golden” and shiny decorations.
Christmas mirror decoration
No hallway is complete without a mirror. Its surface along the edges can be decorated with frosty patterns.
Decorating a mirror for the New Year
It’s easy to make this decoration in the hallway for the New Year with your own hands:
- Cut out a shaped snowflake from paper. The more intricate rays she has, the better. In general, you can cut out any figure or composition.
- Place the stencil on the mirror.
- Dilute a small amount of toothpaste to the consistency of liquid sour cream.
- Take a bristle brush or stiff toothbrush, soak it in the solution and sprinkle generously on the snowflakes.
- Dry the paper with a hairdryer - it will dry and fall off on its own, leaving a snow-covered pattern on the mirror.
The mirror frame is decorated with tinsel, an LED garland or a composition of branches with ribbons and cones. It is fixed at the top of the mirror or placed on a shelf for hats.
To decorate a mirror, paper snowflakes glued to a soap solution or ready-made vinyl stickers are suitable.

To create an elegant, majestic appearance, the staircase railings are decorated with lush garlands, bows, balls and fir cones. Decorative boots for gifts and figurines of angels are hung on them.
Classic New Year's decor is made in red and green colors.
New Year's staircase decoration
For a light staircase, you can choose a soft decor, paying more attention to its texture. For example, green matte and glossy balls combined with silver toys against a background of fir branches.
Example of a white staircase design
The railings are decorated with bows, the colors of which match the decoration of the composition on the lower platform near the stairs. You can also install a tall Christmas tree here.
The decor of the staircase should be in harmony with the decorations at its base
Depending on the style of the hallway, decorating the stairs may not require an abundance of decor.
This applies to minimalist interiors, in which lush bows and garlands will look out of place.
In this case, you can use piece decor and original details that will make the appearance of the staircase magical and mysterious and maintain its discreet appearance.
Discreet staircase decor
When choosing decorations for the staircase, do not be afraid to show your imagination and use unusual details.
You can hang a garland with family photos, arrange soft toys and funny figures. This will create a sincere atmosphere of a family holiday.
Original decoration of the staircase with family photos
Often a few touches are enough to make the staircase in the hallway look elegant. Hang Christmas wreaths, a garland of felt toys, boots for gifts on the fence, place lanterns, flowerpots with decor on the steps, and simply lay out Christmas tree balls.
For retro and eco styles, they choose vintage postcards and crafts made from natural materials.
Decorations made from natural materials are suitable for rustic-style interiors. For example, you can hang a garland from scrap materials on the railing.

Christmas stockings on stairwells
To consider all the options for how to decorate a staircase for the New Year, it is definitely worth mentioning the use of Christmas stockings as decor. Despite the fact that this tradition came to us from other countries, we will like this solution for its simplicity and spectacular appearance. For decorations, you can use specially purchased socks, or you can make them yourself using a simple pattern and leftover bright fabrics.
An interesting point: the size of the stockings can be adjusted independently. For a large family, you can use the idea of sewing items that are identical in appearance, differing in size depending on the age of the owner.
