For tens of years, each family, and indeed the people in general, has adhered to certain traditions in celebrating the New Year. Even abroad on vacation or permanent residence, our people try to embody all possible New Year's traditions. So how is the New Year celebrated?
Decorated Christmas tree
Few families have a Christmas tree in the New Year. Even if it is not possible to purchase and install a fluffy forest inhabitant, our people try to put at least a twig or a coniferous New Year's composition. it is customary to decorate the Christmas tree with a large number of toys.
Of course, Western notes slip into the decoration of the Christmas tree ornaments, for example, hanging balls of exclusively red and blue colors on the Christmas tree. But, the tradition of decorating the Christmas tree with a wide variety of toys, especially from the times of the USSR, does not leave many homes. It is also customary for us to buy a new toy every year, not necessarily a modern one. Often, you can buy a rare and antique copy of a Christmas tree decoration from your hands.
New Year's atmosphere at home
Preparing for the New Year is done in advance. Together with the children, they decorate the rooms, the kitchen, the facade of the house. Shopping, buying food for the New Year's table and choosing gif.webpts for loved ones are tiresome, but at the same time, they make you feel the approach of your favorite holiday. And the kids are overjoyed when they write a letter to Grandfather Frost, make an Advent calendar or glue a collage from family photos.
Get the location of the patron of the year
People are always trying to make their life easier, happier and more successful. In many ways, this is helped by the advice of astrologers, especially before the New Year. Decorating the house and the table, meeting the year in clothes of certain colors, a delicious menu, buying a Christmas tree or soft toy with the symbol of the year - all these are established traditions that help to appease the future hostess or owner of the year.
New Year's feast
Beautiful and correct table setting, including those with astrological recommendations, is half the battle. Our hostesses have always been famous for the abundance of festive tables, on which there is always Olivier, herring under a fur coat, champagne, beloved tangerines, red caviar and, of course, hot and cold appetizers from meat, fish and mushrooms.
Family celebration
It is believed that the New Year should be celebrated in a family circle with relatives and friends. Then the whole year the family will live together in peace and harmony. There is also a saying that has become a tradition: as you celebrate the New Year, you will spend it. Many families arrange amateur or professional photo sessions for the New Year. Just imagine how pleasant it is to look at family photos taken in ten or fifteen years. So many warm emotions can be experienced when looking at footage from ten years ago.
Make a wish under the chimes
Each of us has an innermost desire. Someone wants love, others health, others - financial well-being. In the New Year, at the most magical time, your wish will certainly come true. Make a wish while the Kremlin chimes strike. Another way: write a wish on a piece of paper, set it on fire from a candle light, throw the ashes into a glass of champagne and drink. Even in the New Year, you can arrange family games, contests, quizzes and even fortune-telling in order to at least a little look into the future unknown to anyone.
Nowhere without a TV?
Everyone at least once said that he was tired of watching the Blue Light and the Irony of Fate on New Year's Eve. But every time, with tenderness of the heart, we watch our favorite New Year films and programs from childhood.
Each family has its own New Year traditions, but we all look forward to the onset of these wonderful holidays every year. And every adult, like a child, wants to believe that his wishes will certainly come true next year!
