Bake festive cookies. Any culinary masterpiece can be given a New Year's appearance, if you bake it in the form of a Christmas tree, a snowman or a Christmas star. Use chocolate icing and coloring, which will remind you of festive confetti. You can give cookies in a beautiful basket or box, laying a linen napkin on the bottom. If you make small holes in the cookie and skip the ribbon in them, you can hang the cookies on the Christmas tree along with the glass toys.
2
Make your own hands New Year's candles. Gifts for a kind of aromatic soap and a framework for photos can fill the oskuyu, but only if they are not made by themselves. To prepare candles yourself, you do not need special skills. It is enough to melt several paraffin candles of different colors on a water base and pour liquid wax into a new shape. While the candles remain soft and warm, they can be decorated with nuts, beads or coffee beans.

Tie to the holiday woolen mittens or socks. New Year is a winter holiday, so warm clothes will never be superfluous. Use red, blue and white tones, as well as ornaments with snowflakes and bells. It is important not to overdo it: the scarf with the image of a huge deer head will not be pleased, even if you consider it touching. Try to keep your gift not only on New Year's Eve.

Make Christmas cards. Scrapbooking is now very popular, so you can find everything you need in any art shop or in the bookstore. Connect and your own imagination: everyone at least once in his life cut out snowflakes from silver paper or glued a cotton beard to his grandfather's frost. Decorate them with ribbons, lace roses and small bells.

Create a fun collage. To do this, we will recall the times when the photos were stored in thick photo albums, not on hard disks. Print out the most jolly photos of your friends and relatives, cut out their faces, paste them on the sheet of Whatman and paint them with a snowman's body or a Santa Claus's sheepskin coat. Those who doubt their talents of the artist, can always make a collage of illustrations of old magazines, and it is better not to take "Cosmopolitan", but "Murzilka". Such a gift is guaranteed to lift everyone's spirits.
