Merry celebration!
New Year's holidays, carnivals and masquerades are an opportunity to have a wonderful, fun and bright time. It will be interesting to participate in entertaining costume events for both children and adults. However, for any holiday it is necessary to pick up some image, come up with and create an appropriate costume and its components. You can dress up with anyone, choosing a character to your liking, depending on the theme or direction of the holiday. But the invariable attribute of any masquerade has always been and will be carnival or New Year's masks.
Beautiful masks sometimes do not even require any costume, being a completely independent accessory that is able to convey the idea and meaning of your image. If you want the holiday to be remembered as an interesting event, turn preparation for it into an exciting creative process and create do-it-yourself carnival masks with your children.
If you are preparing for a masquerade
Merry festivities have always been unthinkable without masks. Of course, they all differ from each other: for example, Christmas or New Year's masks can symbolize fairy-tale heroes, Vertep participants, thematic winter characters, and Halloween carnivals should already reflect the spirit of this holiday and embody its popular images. If we talk about the Venetian holiday, then there is generally a whole separate art, etc. That is, if you wish, you can learn how to create beautiful and frightening, small and large, simple and complex masks: from papier-mâché, cardboard, fabric, lace or knitted and any others.
Before you make a carnival mask with your own hands, you need to decide on your image and costume. Then she will simply continue and supplement it. If you want to limit yourself to only this accessory, you will have to make more effort, since in this case it becomes the central and main detail of your image, defining it.
Minimal effort for a bold look
The easiest way to make a simple mask from scrap materials: paper, lace, felt, etc. Such a carnival mask with your own hands can be suitable for both children and adults. By the way, they are not only female, but also male.
Let's take a closer look at paper and cloth masks for children. If the child cannot in any way decide on the image on New Year's party, choosing between a tiger, an owlet and a dragon, and you do not know how and what kind of New Year's mask to make for him, you can fulfill all his desires at once, using absolutely simple technology manufacturing.
- It is necessary to print (using a color printer) those blanks that you like. It can be a drawing-template of the head of any animal, fairy-tale character or hero.
- Next, this drawing needs to be cut and glued to cardboard (thick paper).
- The New Year's mask can be held with an elastic band. To attach it, make small cuts on both sides. Then you need to wrap an elastic band around these cuts (calculate its length so that you can easily put on the mask without tearing it, but also so that it does not constantly fall off your face). You can secure the elastic with tape or a stapler. If you want, glue a thin stick instead of an elastic band, for which you can hold the product with your hand.
- Such a New Year's mask with your own hands will become even more attractive if you decorate it with sparkles, tinsel or other festive paraphernalia.
As easy as making a New Year's mask for a child, it can be made for adult party.
- As a blank, you will need to draw or also print a regular outline (they can be both female and male). Draw two blanks at once - from plain paper or cardboard and made of very dense.
- Then cut out the blanks. Don't forget the eyelets.
- When everything is ready, glue both blanks.
- Now it's the turn of the decorations. Colored feathers will look very impressive. Try to glue them thickly over the product, and attach sequins and rhinestones around the slots for the eyes.
Black lace masks turn out to be very beautiful and mysterious. Their manufacturing technology is similar to the previous ones.
- Prepare a regular template (draw or print). Cut it out of cardboard.
- Take satin fabric and glue the blank to it. After the glue is dry, carefully cut.
- Next, start glueing the lace, slowly cutting off all the excess. The mask must be completely covered with lace. If small gaps remain, use black nail polish to close them.
- Then the lace product can be decorated with sequins, rhinestones and sparkles, and you can also attach a stick or an elastic band to it.
A lacy black mask can only be made of lace, however, for this you need to find tight lace that would hold its shape. Then you will have to work a little with the joining of parts and bends, gluing all the elements or stitching them together, and at the end - decorate the product.
Felt masks are also cut out of paper blanks.

What exactly do you associate a masquerade ball with? With something mysterious and romantic or mysterious and old?
Unsolved secrets of masks and silhouettes in the twilight, stunning images and songs that penetrate right into the heart - all this is a masquerade ball for adults! Only here each guest can feel like an aristocrat of the Middle Ages, feel the full depth of colorful flowers and costumes in the style of MardiGras, an exquisite carnival in Venice, a ball of nobility in the palace of Louis XIV or a Victorian operetta.
All these ideas can be realized at a birthday party, corporate event, High school prom, New Years, Halloween, weddings or just meeting good old friends. A masquerade ball is a holiday where old traditions and modernity are harmoniously combined.
The essence of the masquerade ball
Masquerades date back to ancient Greece, where noisy parties were held with dressing up and masked processions accompanied by music, singing and fiery dances in honor of the god Dionysus. In medieval Europe, masquerades have become very popular in aristocratic circles since the XIV century. Changing into another costume or putting on a mask, a person went beyond the norm, and was transferred to the world of inhibitions, harmony, and otherworldly power. Feeling like someone else for at least one evening, people took a break from the daily hustle and bustle and were distracted from the harsh reality of the world. Soon, the mask began to symbolize equality between different segments of the population; it did not divide people according to their religion or status.
The masquerade was the perfect event for intrigue, gossip, unbridled fun, and, of course, forbidden love... Everyone who was wearing a mask could pretend to be a different person for the evening, show himself from the other side, which positively influenced the struggle with his own complexes. The true "I" of each person was lost at the ball, in the twilight of the masquerade a new personality was born, with its own mystical history ...
What kind of story you write depends on how the party is organized properly.
Definition of topics
The masquerade ball can be of different themes, and depends on the preferences and imaginations of the organizers, as well as the general vision of the holiday. Let's consider the brightest themes for the event:
- MardiGras is a holiday for lovers of juicy flowers, unusual images and unrestrained fun.
- The Phantom of the Opera is a Victorian party accompanied by classical music.
- An aristocratic party in the spirit of 18th century France - a celebration of luxury, pompous outfits, expensive jewelry and gourmet food.
- Old Hollywood is an event dedicated to glamor and social life, all guests of the event flirtatiously hide their faces behind exquisite masks.
- Cinema-cartoon masquerade is a celebration of the heroes of your favorite cartoons and movies, suitable for both children and adults.
Important factors in determining the theme of the party are the allocated budget and the location of the party. Some masquerade balls are relatively economical, such as an Old Hollywood party, while MardiGras requires a fair bit of cash for the ballroom and costumes.
Masquerade ball invitations
After defining the theme of the masquerade, you need to organize the invitations for the guests. The main symbol of such celebrations is the mask, so it is not surprising that invitations are most often made in her style. The front side can be decorated like a Venetian boudoir, that is, trimmed with an elegant fabric, painted with gold paints and sparkles.
More can be done simple options for example, cut out a mask from cardboard, paint it with glitter glue, paints, markers or confetti. 
The text of the invitation may be different, but it is important to indicate the date, location of the event, theme, dress code. Each guest can come up with a name in accordance with the theme of the holiday. For example, if a party is in the style of the French aristocracy of the 18th century, then guests can become Josephines, Constantias, Jacques, Louis, etc. It will be interesting and at the same time piquant.
Masquerade outfits
The outfit is very important for a theme party, and it's bad if some guests ignore the line that warns about the theme of the evening. To avoid embarrassment, you need to introduce several rules:
- Invitations are given to guests of the event at least 2 weeks before the masquerade.
- Dress code is discussed with each guest without fail.
- You need to have several additional masks for those who still poorly prepare for the holiday.
A costume for a masquerade ball should be thought out to the smallest detail and unusually luxurious, with notes of sexuality and humor. He must show all the mysteriousness of the image. 
There are many places in cities where costumes, wigs and necessary accessories are rented, you just need to give the phone number to the guests. Also, the suit can be sewn to order or by hand if you have the skills of a seamstress. 
For a holiday, girls can dress up as a queen, lady, movie diva of the 20s or Princess Elsa from the cartoon "Frozen". For men, suits in the style of a count, baron, Zorro or even the image of Marlon Brando are perfect - a black tailcoat with a bow tie will always be in place.
Party masks
We should also mention the masquerade mask as a symbol of this holiday. Even an ordinary tailcoat or small black dress together with an elegant mask will look harmonious at the ball. The perfect plaster mask can be easily prepared at home. It will take some gimmicks and decorating skills. For cooking you need:
- 20 strips of medical plaster based on gauze, measuring 2.5 cm by 4 cm.
- Cream.
The face is lubricated with cream, plaster strips soaked in water are applied to it. After drying on the face, the impression is taken and it is given the desired shape using a sharp knife. Then everything depends solely on will and imagination. The mask can be colored, decorated in different styles, beautified different materials, stones, threads, sequins, etc. 
It is much easier to make a cloth goggle mask at home. Pearls, guipure, sequins - this is a small part of what can bring to the eyes of a woman in a mask notes of mystery and perfection.
The most affordable accessory for a party will be a blindfold mask. Its presence will make a woman's look full of charisma, expression and mystery.
Room decoration
The atmosphere at a holiday of this type simply has to be mysterious and unusual for all guests, otherwise the whole meaning will be lost.
If you are planning a large-scale party, then you can order the services of special agencies for the design of banquet halls. If the masquerade takes place in an apartment or a private house, then the organizers themselves should take care of decorating the rooms.
Beads, feathers, candles, mirrors will become the main decorative elements for the festive premises. Well, masks, they should be everywhere. On the walls you can hang thematic posters depicting Venice, balls of France from the 18th century, paintings by famous artists of that time, tapestries and candelabra. 
An interesting and practical idea would be to decorate a room in one color scheme. This will significantly reduce the problems of choosing matching colors, and save money.
The walls of the room can be draped with burgundy, green and blue fabrics. Garlands will perfectly complement the decor of the hall; these can be pendants made of flowers and butterflies.
If the party is planned in a fun and modern cartoon-style cinema, then you can decorate the walls with posters of your favorite cartoon and movie characters, install several funny tantamares (decorations with holes for faces for photographing), scatter confetti and streamers around the rooms. Gold, silver, yellow, red, blue balloons and electric garlands are also used as decorations for a masquerade ball.
Musical arrangement
If the party is organized in the style of a masquerade ball from the Middle Ages, then the best music will be the classics: Bach, Beethoven, Mozart and other masterpieces. Eternal music, like no other, will fill the evening with a pleasant atmosphere, encourage the images of guests, and invite you to talk on important topics or just have a good time with friends.
If the party is organized in a cartoon-style movie, then modern hits, songs that remind friends of a fun pastime in their youth, or any other fun music can become the musical accompaniment.
Entertainment at the ball
Undoubtedly, the main form of entertainment at the ball is dancing: classical, Latin or modern.
At the masquerade ball of the times of Louis XIV, dancing cards were in circulation, each lady was awarded a certain cavalier, with whom she was obliged to dance all evening. A similar practice can be offered to guests to singles at your masquerade. The ladies themselves will draw out the card with the name of the gentleman, and maybe by the end of the evening several more strong couples will be organized among your friends. 
On such a themed holiday, you can spend the following entertainment.
"Theatre"
Guests are divided into two groups. One is interesting and funny script and the other embodies it on an impromptu stage under the clear guidance of the "director" from the first group. The script for the team can be a parody of everyone's favorite movie, theatrical performance or a fairy tale.
"Competition for the best image"
Traditional competition at almost all events. It is important that the participants carefully prepare for it and think over their image to the smallest detail. The winner is the participant who received the most applause for his costume.
"Queen of the masquerade ball"
Girls are just delighted with various beauty contests. The most beautiful, mysterious, sophisticated, sexy and at the same time interesting lady becomes the queen of the masquerade ball. The winner will wear a crown all evening and be surrounded by all sorts of honors.
"Auction"
Holding an auction is an aristocratic occupation. An unusual mask can be used as lots self made, a bottle of rare wine, a queen's shoe of the evening, etc. An important feature this game is the moderator's sense of humor, able to conduct an auction in a positive and fun atmosphere.
At the very beginning, the minimum rate per lot is set, it can be a coin of the indicated denomination or a small bill.
"Thematic photo session"
Who does not want to get a photo as a souvenir, and even in such a gorgeous image. Therefore, an interesting and positive photo session of the guests of the holiday will give everyone present an excellent mood.
"Dress Up Contest"
In the company of your best friends, you can be a little frivolous and, for example, take and change into a suit of the opposite sex. Ladies will become gentlemen and vice versa. After a fun dressing up and putting on a make-up on the newly-made "young ladies", you can hold a competition where the participants will compete for the title "Mrs Gentleman" and "Mr Lady".
"Roomy petticoat"
Such a competition is only suitable for a party in the style of Europe in the 18th century, as it requires ladies in dresses with puffy skirts. The essence of the competition: two girls in dresses and a team of guys choose, the more cavaliers fit under each skirt, the latter wins. Hide under fluffy dress you need it completely, no arms and legs peeping out. Fun is guaranteed to all guests of the holiday.
Another version of this competition: one of the girls has a gentleman hiding under her skirt. The guests have to guess which of them is hiding the lucky one.
Gifts and prizes
As gifts and prizes at the masquerade ball can be used beautiful masks, hair accessories, pendants with keys, butterflies under an elegant tailcoat, or comic prizes. For example, a bandage on a leg, a mustache on a stick, a mask with a nose or a funny shape. 
Treats and table setting
The idea of a classic masquerade ball does not provide for a standard feast. Guests of the party are treated to a buffet table. Ideally, hire waiters, but if this is not possible, then you can simply arrange the delivery of snacks and drinks yourself. 
Evening treats can include beef medallions, mussel or shrimp salad, rosemary chicken, French bread, sesame buns, etc. 
Cognac, red or white dry wines, champagne are perfect drinks.
Dessert can consist of "mask" cookies, strawberries, grapes, pastries decorated with chocolate lace patterns, and, of course, a cake decorated according to the holiday theme. 
A masquerade ball is a fun and original event, the relevance of which has not been lost for centuries. Each guest of the evening can feel like an aristocrat of the 19th century, an actor of the 20s or partners with Bonnie and Clyde, trying on the appropriate image. The main thing is to be fun, interesting and unusual.
Masquerade is a place where time eras intersect, the past becomes the present, so that a beautiful and bright future takes place.

Ball - masquerade theme party idea
Idea masquerade ball made the heart beat faster and blood flow in the veins since the 16th century. Some clever (or too in love) Frenchman came up with a mask to come to the royal ball. A little later, the mask became a symbol of equality between rich and poor, smart and stupid, men and women. Only motley birds without sex, age, even, at times, voices took part in. It was the perfect environment for treacherous intrigue, gossip, and, of course, forbidden love. And also - the man in the mask could afford to be different. For some, the mask helped to defeat complexes, while for others, on the contrary, it allowed them to carefully hide their depraved essence. The true "I" remained somewhere there, in the light of half a day. In the twilight of the masquerade ballroom, a new man was born who wrote his own mysterious story. So what will it be misterious story your holiday? Let's start planning the party!
PARTY PREPARATION BALL - MASKARADE
1. Choosing a theme for the masquerade
The choice of theme depends on several factors. First of all, your general vision of the holiday and preferences. Here are some suggestions that have been tried and tested in practice:
Mardi gras
(themed for admirers of bright colors and colors, feathers, great fun and dancing)
Phantom of the Opera
(a more subdued celebration in the spirit of the Victorian majestic era, with classical music and drama corresponding to the theme)
18th century aristocratic ball
(a luxurious event, the main accent of which is the pomp of the outfits, a lot of precious jewelry, exquisite food)
Old Hollywood
(the world of glamor of a socialite, whose representatives coquettishly cover their eyes with an exquisite mask)
In addition, the choice of theme can be influenced by the location of the holiday (for a Victorian ball, you need to rent a large dance hall, and for old Hollywood, a modest living room in your house is enough). And, of course, the budget. If, for example, "Hollywood" and "The Phantom of the Opera" are low-budget events, then "Mardi Gras" and "Aristocratic Ball" will have to fork out thoroughly.
2. Invitations to the masquerade ball
After we have decided on the topic, we begin to invite guests. The dominant symbol for any holiday theme in the spirit is, of course,.
For front side tablet of such a stylish invitation card, the idea of decorating Venetian boudoirs is used. The walls are painted with gold, flowers flickering in the light of candelabra, expensive, refined fabrics ...
This option is simpler and more economical. We cut out the base mask from thick paper (cardboard), and decorate it using improvised means. Instead of serpentine (or together with it), you can use aerosol silver glitter based on glue or metallized large "peas" of confetti.
We formulate the invitation text arbitrarily. It is important to include the date, time, theme of the holiday, location, dress code, and timing of RSVP information.
3. Outfits for the masquerade ball
There is nothing worse than a themed holiday with guests who ignored the dress code line. Masquerade without costumes is initially doomed to fail. Three simple rules will help to avoid awkwardness, embarrassment and spoiled mood:
I. Invitation cards must be handed to all guests at least two weeks before the event;
II. Asking the question about the dress code clearly, loudly and categorically.
Try to explain to your guests that thanks to their fabulous costumes, the theme of the party will come to life, that during the Renaissance, masquerades were held only for a select few, the elite of society, and at the end - announce a competition for the best carnival costume(with the subsequent reward of the winner).
III. Prepare spare masks for those guests who suffer from "hearing impairments", or who are too pragmatic in nature to feel the whole deep philosophy of the future holiday.
Spare, along with a strict instruction: men in tailcoats, women in evening dresses- is quite capable of saving a masquerade ball, which may be on the verge of failure.
And if the guests add a little zest to the outfit - shoes in the style of bright birds of Rio - you get a wonderful fancy toilet.
Suit for masquerade ball it can be either a carefully thought-out pompous outfit or a kind of humorous image with erotic overtones.
Men also, depending on the theme of the holiday, can come both in a strict tailcoat with a bow tie, and in the costume of a cheeky pirate in a cocked hat, or Zorro.
4. Party masks - masquerade ball
An excellent solution for an expensive ball in the spirit of the Middle Ages would be this one based on plaster.
You can do it at home, using a little improvised means and artistic talent. For one masks you will need: 20 gauze-based medical plaster strips (2.5 cm wide and 4 cm long), fat cream, water. Lubricate your face with cream (to avoid irritation and allergic reactions), apply plaster strips soaked in water. Let the cast dry on your face. Use a sharp knife to shape the finished print to the desired shape. And then - give free rein to creativity and imagination.
A simpler option is mask glasses from fabric. Guipure, pearls, rhinestones, leather - this is just a small part of the tools that can make a woman's look from under the mask mysterious, enigmatic, perfect.
And the most elementary option masks- a guipure eye patch. Mystery, expression, charisma - these are just a few words from the galaxy of those that you will hear thanks to a mask addressed to you at a party.
5. Decor for a masquerade ball
An ideal place for masquerade ball will become a Renaissance dance hall. Tapestries, paintings, candelabra with candles, bulky carved furniture ... Unfortunately, there are no more than a dozen of these in the whole world, and even those are museums. What to do? Get your (or rented) home back several centuries in time!
Drapery . Buy some cuts of velvet to hang on your “ballroom” walls. Burgundy, dark green and navy blue fabrics are perfect.
Candles . Masquerade ball requires the creation of a romantic, mysterious atmosphere. Turn off the bright central lighting for the evening, use side lights and beautifully decorated candles.
Masks . Masquerade masks (with feathers, rhinestones, ribbons) will be a great decoration for walls, tables, front doors of your home.
Goblets... For wine, champagne, and other drinks, it is also worth decorating in the spirit of the holiday.
Menu... If you are planning a self-service buffet reception, then you will not need this attribute. And if your masquerade ball according to the script, it should slowly turn into a dinner party - prepare such a menu for each guest. The impression of your holiday will increase several times.
Fairy lights... Unusual pendants made of flowers or butterflies will add charm, originality and mystery to your evening.
Another for the masquerade ... Silver, gold, purple, green Balloons, serpentine and electric garlands can also be used as a decoration for a masquerade ball (especially if the theme is Mardi Gras). For bright holiday live greens as a decor, and multi-colored ribbons are also suitable.
6. Music for adult party masquerade ball
Participants masquerade ball of the Renaissance they listened to the elite music of that time: Bach, Corelli, Scarlatti, Vivaldi, Fuchs, Purcell. Records and discs of classical music can be found commercially. Eternal melodies will set the tone for your evening, encourage guests to get into character, chat on eternal themes and just have a good time.
PARTY PROCESS BALL - MASCARADE (SCENARIO)

Of course, the main activity on masquerade ball are dancing. Classic (if you are at a French or Italian court), fiery Latin (if you are at a bright carnival). It would be nice if one of the guests made the birthday boy unusual gift- invited a ballroom dance instructor for a festive master class.
You can also play around with the idea of dancing cards at your party. Remember, at the court of Louis 14, the lady danced the following dance with the gentleman whose name was on her card. And you can also experiment with the dance card, and add there not the real names of your guests, but the names of the heroes in which they reincarnated.
|
Game "Theater" Intelligent, creative and fun at the same time. The guests are divided into two teams. One team composes a short script, the other follows the instructions of the "director". The basis of the script can be a famous film (which you will make a parody of together), a theatrical performance, or a children's fairy tale. |
|
An obligatory competition that must be held among your guests if they came to the holiday in masquerade costumes and carefully worked on their image. Arrange a secret ballot (by installing a notebox with voices in the hallway), or - explicitly (by counting the loudest applause for one or another hero of the evening). And award the winner with a prize. |
