Registration of the premises for February 23
The holiday, once conceived as the Day of the Soviet Army and the Navy, is traditionally celebrated on February 23rd. But for a long time from the status of "military" he moved to "male". Now on this day everyone is honored - from boys to grandfathers, not dividing into those who served and who did not. February 23 can be called the "Day of Real Men". At the same time, the military overtones have been preserved and traditionally creates the right atmosphere.
Peculiarities
The colors of the holiday are camouflage and tricolor. You can hang the decorations on your own, without involving firms specializing in festive decor.
In preparation for the celebration, it is important to keep a "military secret" so that men do not guess what awaits them on February 23rd.
Houses
If your real hero was in the army, transform a room or a whole house for one day. Hang on the wall the flag of the type of troops where the chosen one served. The composition can be supplemented with a garland in the Russian tricolor and balls. In addition to the entourage, you can cover the sofa or bed with a fabric with «protective "print.
In the office
On the eve of the holiday, you should stay a little late at work or come early on the 23rd to decorate the office. You can create an atmosphere already from the entrance to the building. You can decorate the opening with balls with a camouflage pattern. In the room, it is advisable to free up part of the area and arrange a stylized corner there. It can serve as an impromptu scene during the celebration or turn into a colorful photo zone.

In school and kindergarten
By February 23rd, children begin to prepare immediately after having celebrated a matinee with Santa Claus.For them, this date is a holiday for dads and classmates. Here, of course, the entire organization is in the hands of the mentors. On February 23rd, they are mainly engaged in the design themselves, attracting children whenever possible. But a few universal solutions will come in handy for everyone, regardless of the style of the party. For example, you can print pictures of dads and put them in frames to hang on the walls in the hallway or in the main room of the group.
Crafts in the form of tanks, planes and submarines will be a good addition.
Room decoration ideas
You can start preparing for the celebration of February 23rd by preparing an invitation for the "soldier". On the Internet, you can download a suitable sample and print for your dad, brother or each employee a "conscript summons" (invitation to a banquet). In the office, its presentation will be more colorful if you dress up the employee in the uniform of a postman of the war years. As a last resort, a shoulder bag and a garrison cap coquettishly sitting on top of the head will do.
The center of the decorative composition at an event in a work or school team can be made with the symbols of the state - the coat of arms and the flag. This is relevant not only for the stage in the assembly hall, but also in the photo zone. Homemade garlands of flags will help to bring festive lightness into the atmosphere. They can be easily attached to walls and hung in window openings. Flags on sticks will perfectly complement the decor of the festive table.

To add brightness, it is worth complementing the photo zone with flags and other paraphernalia in red, blue and white colors.
Draperies made of real camouflage fabric or its imitation also look unusual. Such a corner will not be superfluous anywhere - neither in the garden, nor in the school class, nor in the restaurant. And for a home photo zone, another option is suitable: you can please your beloved man with a modest festive photo session. For example, to equip a corner in the apartment in which to arrange ceremonial military paraphernalia and a demobilization album or a photo of the army period beautifully.
If the man did not serve, just invite him to the table, where treats are waiting. The military theme can also be played up in the design of dishes prepared with your own hands.
