The choice of colors
Before proceeding to the selection of decorations for the room, you need to decide on the color scheme, which you dilute the familiar environment. We all want the office to look unusual, but it does not go beyond what is reasonable.
The usual colors associated with the New Year are red, green, gold, white. We propose to pay attention to other shades that are called essential for the coming year and, no doubt, will attract happiness and well-being to your life.
Important! We do not recommend using the usual white shade to decorate the office. As the main one, it is better to take the color brighter, and with light tones it will be good to dilute the too motley interior.
The main shade of 2018 is bright yellow. Among other, favorable colors were purple, brown, green and red, so it’s not necessary to give up typical New Years, it is enough just to strip them of spangles. 
Believe me, a festive decor can easily do without a lot of brilliant elements, only one will be enough.
Another option that will help not only decorate your workplace, but also emphasizes the firm's personality, these are, of course, the colors of the corporate logo. Decorations in the same range as the logo may well attract customers, and the office itself will look both themed and at the same time festive.
What can be used
It is completely optional to install a pine or a real Christmas tree in the office, and not every boss will be happy to see such a bulky element of the pre-holiday interior. We will find out what materials we can adopt, so that the decoration of the workplace would not turn out to be too expensive, but at the same time it would look spectacular and unusual.

To feel it, just inhale the smell of spruce twigs, tangerines and chocolate.

The first emperor ordered firs, pines and junipers to be installed in the courtyards, to shoot in honor of the holiday from small guns and cannons, to turn on the lights and to launch rockets. The poorest people were given out trees and pines for free.

If it was not possible to purchase such snow from a can, we suggest you prepare it yourself. The process is simple and does not take much time or expensive ingredients, and you will be provided with New Year's mood. 
- First recipe not melting snow contains only three ingredients: soda (one and a half packs), shaving foam (one spray) and sparkles if you want your snowball to sparkle in the light.

Brilliant particles are added at the very end, you can choose any shade of them, so that even the snow fits into your chosen theme.
- For the second method making snow is useful all the same razor foam (one can), as well as cornstarch or flour (two packs). The method of preparation is the same, you just need to mix the ingredients. Only this snow will be already crumbly, lush. On top of that, such snow is cold.

How to decorate a room
When you have decided on the materials for decorating the cabinet, it's time to proceed directly to the process of decorating. You should not try to use everything at once, balance is important everywhere, so it is important to think over where and what to put so that the interior does not become excessively motley.
Window
Windows - the best place for stickers and stencils. Modern stickers do not leave sticky traces on the glass, and a New Year's drawing or even an inscription will give a smile not only to you, but also to passersby, if you work on the ground floors.
If you can’t or don’t want to close the window view with stickers, put a bunch of coniferous plants on the window sill in a vase or place a garland over the window. You can use both paper garlands and LED. You can also place paper figures or a small artificial Christmas tree on the windowsill.

a door
A good and traditional way to decorate a door is to attach a wreath of coniferous or artificial branches to it. If the wreath seems bulky or unreliable to you, then resort to using a garland. It is quite possible to fix it on the door in the form of a Christmas tree with the help of ordinary adhesive tape - both ordinary and double-sided.
You can also attach a New Year themed sticker on the door with a wish or a picture of the symbols of the New Year, like a Christmas tree or Father Frost with the Snow Maiden. The symbol of the coming year also seems to be a certain animal, in our case it is a dog. 
Ceiling
The ceiling will also help create a New Year's mood, moreover, these elements of decor will not interfere with anyone and will not take away the space. Many attributes of a New Year's holiday can be attached to it, for example, a garland of colorful balloons.
Such a reception is often resorted to in shopping centers, decorating ceilings with lush flowers and paper pom-poms. Nothing prevents you from doing the same in your own office, especially since you can do it yourself. At the same time, you will choose the size of the balls that suits you and their appearance.
Another original option is a hanging tree. In this case, the plant itself will not have to buy From the same paper snowflakes, pompons or balls, you can build a Christmas tree hovering in the air. 
To do this, just need to hang all its elements on threads of different lengths. This decoration looks quite unusual and will always be visible, but it does not take up space on your desktop.
Important! Place your hanging Christmas tree so that neither you nor your colleagues hit her head. If a room with a low ceiling, then choose a place in a corner where no one walks.
Walls
If right behind you is a bare wall, and you really want a holiday, or at least a hint of it - no problem. The wall can be decorated in many ways, the main thing is not to overdo it.
Ordinary spruce or pine twigs, which can be attached to the wall and decorate, thereby adding to the office atmosphere a slight smell of pine needles, are suitable. And you can just place one or two branches, and collect from them a schematic figure of a Christmas tree. 
Another option wall Christmas tree - a garland. As on the window, collect the Christmas tree from the LEDs and stick it on the double-sided tape to make the picture look more aesthetic.
Honeycombs and fans are also placed on the walls, so you can purchase ready-made products and attach them. You can make these decorations with your own hands, it all depends solely on your budget and the availability of interesting ideas.
You can also diversify the situation with stickers with stencils. Choose the one that best fits the interior of your office - meaning the overall color scheme.
Desktop
The situation when decorating the whole office does not work or is prohibited is not critical, because there is a way out of it. You can place on the working surface a small herringbone made of paper using origami technique or any other you like. 
You can simply purchase a small copy of an artificial tree. Artificial snow will help to complete the picture, but do not fall asleep the whole table. Although the material does not melt, it can even prevent the working process.
We offer an option for those who use a personal computer when working. You can create a festive mood with the help of an ordinary screen saver for your desktop. The main thing - do not forget about the workflow.
Regardless of how you decorate your workplace, remember that a festive mood is not only New Year's tinsel and a Christmas tree with snow. Christmas mood always begins with you. Smile, give happiness to others, and the attributes of the holiday will soon become just a pleasant addition, pleasing the eye.
