There are several ways to display small harvest and Christmas villages from the window during the holiday season. Regardless of whether you use a garden style, bay, or flat window, you will be attractively quality by running one or more of these proposed suggestions over time.
Envy and praise are the two words that come to mind when my eyes catch the house's eye during a windowed holiday. It is enviable for the fact that there is not enough window space for them to use and they admire that they can make good use of it on celebratory displays.
One of the first things to decide when planning window style village display is whether to block the view of the room behind the display with some kind of background. This can be easily accomplished in the case of garden style windows where homeowners can already use curtains or blinds to block the internal visibility. The light shaded curtain is excellent for daytime effects, but the dark curtain is perfect for dusk or nighttime effects. You can consider purchasing inexpensive black material, or you can feel like hanging in front of a bright color curtain if you want a nighttime effect. Or if you prefer a daytime scene, a light colored material on a dark curtain. Perfecting the garden-style windows is an open base area that is much easier to build and terrace displays.
It's a bit difficult, but not impossible to create a background, as the standard window is the same height as the wall and usually does not have a deep base area like the garden window. You need to create a framed enclosure to fit around the table you press against the window. Behind the framework there is a place to hang the background you choose. We will save the building of the enclosure for another article. To be honest, most villagers who have a standard window decide not to behave as if the appearance of the open display is against the background. why? Although their village displays are magical when they come out from the outside, they are not very comfortable from the back.
We, Display magic It saves you to discuss the type of display so that another article is displayed. Here, there is a rare but simple display technique to be considered by more villagers for a more interesting display knocking the viewer's socks:
Terrasing : People who saw our professional display will quickly notice that on the terrace you can focus on individual vignette in the display. Simply put, we will place different levels of buildings, accessories and groups of characters in the building in the building. You can bring out the focus of the viewer to individual vignettes that convey your story within the big village display. The easiest way is to stack books under your vignette and achieve the desired height of each group. Please try to conceal the existence of the book with artificial snow, shrubs and trees.
Building direction I have seen thousands of village exhibits at my own time. As a designer, after building a building on an exhibit facing in the same direction, there is nothing to disappoint me more than watching the building. Of course the goal of the villagers is to show each work towards the front of the display so that everyone can see it. My direct question, is it making your display stand out from village B, village C etc? The answer must be obvious, it is not. More than 90% of all the villages I see were quickly launched and took time to start a Christmas party. It is unthinkable for viewers to make the display more visually appealing. Turn towards stores and other buildings towards each other and try downtown main street type effects. With this effect you can easily imagine staring at the center of the city and shuffling the inside of the town and the store. The side of the building is displayed towards the front of the display, but the viewer can see one side and the front of each building.
Clutter : To get it directly, get rid of it. There is no reason to display the works of all the villages you own, unless you decide to sell the collection. This is especially true in smaller display spaces. Free space around your village to create a more attractive and confusing display. The last thing you want to see is to see the audience of your privileged exhibition get away quickly due to confusion and chaotic village placement.
Less Snow Yes, you heard my story. But Steven, if I do not add a lot of snow, will my village look like Christmas? What? The answer lies in the technique. Try scattering the snow such as snowflakes and thawing a little bit and try adding the effect of soil lawn such as roads and roads. You can use sand, model train ballast, small gravel, or any combination of these. It gives your village a unique look that is easy, very cheap and worth showing.
leaf Add some self-made features along with your store and bought a miniature tree to give your display a vivid and realistic life that imitates real size oneself. Try Spanish moss used here as a small shrub for arranging plants. You can also look for trees without leaves from the trees, express winter naked trees, and mix in evergreen pine trees.
Let's spend a bit more time planning the exhibition and trying at least one village's display technology to make it more vibrant, interesting and memorable harvest or Christmas village. Your audience will live longer and your pride will leap from the time spent in your arrangements.
Merry Christmas!
