Every winter you can see the magnificent patterns created by the frost on the windows. They are very diverse and intricate, mysterious and simply magnificent.
How are ice patterns formed on glass?
The indoor air is much warmer than outside, and the humidity is lower. But near glass, sometimes the temperature can be below the dew point, that is, the value when steam begins to condense into dew. Small ice crystals form and ice patterns appear on the window.
Why are ice patterns always different?
Because the conditions inside the room and outside are changeable: temperature, humidity, pressure, wind speed. Even the thickness of the glass and its cleanliness play a role.
First, frost patterns form on the surface of the glass, and when their thickness becomes so large that the transfer of heat to the outside slows down, the ice patterns begin to grow in thickness.
“Vegetable” patterns appear with high humidity and a gradual decrease in temperature. First, the glass becomes wet, and then the moisture freezes, forming bizarre “thickets.” The process starts from the bottom of the glass because more water collects there. Yes, and the pattern there is larger, and towards the top it becomes smaller.
If the cooling process was fast, and the moisture did not have time to flow down the glass, then the “woody” pattern throughout the window will be the same size.
Window glass cannot be perfectly even and smooth; they almost always have small defects and scratches. They contribute to the formation of another frosty pattern. First, ice crystals appear along the scratch, forming a strip, and then curved stems begin to branch off from it.
Since frosty patterns on the window appear when certain conditions are met, it means that if you change them, the glass will remain clean. Reduce the air humidity or prevent the glass from cooling too much (make the window well insulated) and Frost will not draw anything on your window.

Accustoming children to beauty from childhood is a very important task. One way is drawing.
Today we will try to answer the question:
“How can you teach a child to draw frosty pictures on paper?”
In order to start drawing we will need:
- a sheet of paper of at least A4 format;
- simple pencil;
- eraser;
- gouache paints and brushes.
Instructions
- We give a shade of cold blue, for this we dilute blue paint water. We go over the entire sheet of paint, creating a background. It is important to shade the background correctly; the top of the sheet should be lighter than the bottom.
- After the sheet has dried, mark the design with a pencil all over the sheet. We draw a chaotic pattern with thin, needle-like petals. We use our imagination and try to make different patterns.
- Let's take it blue paint and use a thin brush to draw our pattern.
- Next we add contrast with bright white paint here and there. It is very important to “whiten” the drawing in the central part and on the left.
- When the drawing is dry, add neat ones in places. circles of orange and pale blue colors. This will allow you to create a play of colors in the drawing.
As you can see, drawing a frosty pattern is not that difficult.

Epigraph:
And the window glass seems to kiss,
From the Winter Maiden, every day is a gift,
The silver of the design is as bright as a ray of sunshine.
O. Esin
The world around us is full of amazing wonders, but we often do not pay attention to them. Admiring the clear blue of the spring sky or bright colors sunset, we don’t even think about why the sky changes color with the time of day.
Outside the window - blue sky, White clouds…
Clouds are accumulations of tiny water droplets and ice crystals.
Light, meeting a micro-droplet of water, is reflected from its surface.
This allows sunbeam remain in their original color palette, that is, white, while coloring the cloud molecules in White color.
The microscopic dimensions of cloud elements - droplets or pieces of ice - enable them for a long time stay in the air.
To sunlight to reach the ground, he needs to break through a huge layer of air. As light passes through the air, the rays begin to scatter, and this process occurs more intensely with blue light, since the wavelength of blue light is the shortest.
In order to paint a picture, first we must correctly place the image in the center. With a simple pencil make a sketch of the future image.
Who applied the complex ornament
On the window of any apartment?
It's all one artist.
These are all his paintings.
Next we start working in color. For this image I used paints such as gouache and dark tinted paper; it can also be replaced with cardboard. On such darker paper, the image appears more contrasty and bright. Colors: brown, green, white, blue. We usually start with darker tones and gradually introduce lighter ones. For window frames and a landscape in the background, medium-sized brushes are suitable, but for patterns we will need a thin brush.
Winter draws winter patterns for me,
And the window glass seems to kiss,
From the Winter Maiden, every day is a gift,
The silver of the design is as bright as a ray of sunshine.
We begin to draw the landscape outside the window. In order to achieve a heavenly color, by mixing blue + white colors in unequal quantities, there should be a little more white than blue. After drying, add white color to depict clouds, snowdrifts, snow on Christmas trees, as well as glare on window frames.
All drawings are different, the mastery of creation,
And with a strong frost, more inspiration,
The girl will not tire of creating pictures,
Until Spring it will be covered with snow feathers!
Winter has come
silver,
Covered with white snow
the field is clean.
Daytime skating with children
everything is rolling
At night in the snowy lights
crumbles...
Writes a pattern in the windows
ice-pin
And knocking on our yard
with a fresh Christmas tree.
After we have summarized our drawing, we can move on to detailing. We start by drawing the patterns on the window more clearly. Using a thin brush and white gouache, we try to convey fancy patterns with smooth lines.
Spinning easily and clumsily,
The snowflake sat on the glass.
It snowed thick and white at night -
The room is bright from the snow.
The flying fluff is a little powdery,
And the winter sun rises.
Like every day, fuller and better,
Fuller and better new year...
Winter pictures
Auntie is walking the puppy.
The puppy parted with the leash.
And now on low level flight
Crows are flying after the puppy.
The snow is sparkling...
What a small thing!
Sadness, where have you gone?
The frost is crackling. The rivers froze.
Birch trees by the river are trembling.
It is warm here. In a hot oven
The lights are crackling.
They will burn, and soon, soon
In the cozy warmth of the room
Subtle patterns will melt
On painted glass.
Who draws so skillfully
What kind of miracle dreamers,
Ice drawing is sad:
Rivers, groves and lakes?
Who applied the complex ornament
On the window of any apartment?
It's all one artist.
These are all his paintings.
frolicking in a wide field
And tired of wandering in the forest,
Santa Claus is bored or something?
I decided to get into a warm house.
But scared people
The door was locked
And Morozko - come what may -
Soon he climbed towards them through the window.
But there was a barrier there too -
There was glass everywhere in the windows,
And Morozko out of frustration
He decided to harm people.
He calculated with his cunning eye,
He took the brushes, whitened, enamels -
And by morning all the window glass
No light was allowed into the house.
It is doubly more interesting to observe natural phenomena if you know the reason for the appearance and development of certain phenomena. Thanks to such a wonderful science as physics. It is very educational to find answers to the mysteries of nature.
Winter. Magical time of year. When can you observe changes in the environment?
One of the beautiful phenomena: patterns on windows. How fabulous these patterns look, like an artist, frost paints these wonderful pictures.
Since childhood, I have loved admiring frosty patterns. I tried to depict this winter phenomenon on paper. But like any child, it didn’t quite work out. Today, looking at the window, I was inspired to try to depict it on paper. In addition to the patterns, I depicted the landscape that can be seen from the window. But I focused specifically on the frosty patterns, which I was able to repeat, remembering my childhood drawings.
Frosty patterns on the windows...
As the air cools, its moisture content decreases. Frosty patterns on glass are formed if moist air is cooled to the freezing point of water, that is, to 0 ° C. At this temperature, excess moisture contained in moist air condenses on cold surfaces. In this case, the water crystallizes, that is, turns into tiny ice crystals. Water contained in humid air at 0°C passes from a gaseous state to a crystalline state.
Why do ice crystals form bizarre patterns?
There are irregularities and scratches on the surface of the glass that are invisible to us. Ice crystals form on them. The crystals are deposited one after another, on top of each other, and amazing, unique patterns are obtained.
In addition to glass irregularities, dust particles on the glass surface and air currents are involved in drawing patterns.
Patterns are formed if the air humidity is increased, and the cooling of the glass began at a positive temperature and continued with a further decrease in temperature. In this case, a water film forms on the glass, which crystallizes when it freezes. Most often, this process begins at the bottom of the glass because more water accumulates there under the influence of gravity. That is why in the lower part of the window the patterns are larger, and the higher you go, the thinner and smaller the ice branches are.
If the glass is moistened evenly during cooling, that is, covered with an even film of water, then the patterns are approximately the same in size over the entire surface of the glass.
Now we apply the colors with a thick, slightly damp brush, as if we were spraying the color. To achieve this result, we can replace the brush with a sponge.
Snow and snow patterns,
There are blizzards of talk in the field,
Cold, twilight.
Day - skates, mountain, sled,
Evening - old wives' tales.
Here it is - winter!
Winter has brightened up:
The headdress has fringe
From transparent ice floes,
Snowflake stars.
All covered in diamonds, pearls,
In colorful lights,
The radiance is pouring around,
Whispers a spell:
-Lie down, soft snows,
To the forests and meadows,
Cover the paths
Leave the branches down!
On the windows, Santa Claus,
Scatter crystal roses
Light visions
Tricky gossip.
You, blizzard, are a miracle,
Round dances of the backwaters,
Take off like a white whirlwind
Turning gray in the field!
Sleep, my land, sleep,
Keep your magical dreams:
Wait, she’s dressed in brocade,
New dawn!
It is difficult to find a person who has not at least once admired winter time the appearance of frozen moisture on the glass. It turns out that you can create an amazingly beautiful frosty pattern on a window with your own hands. And it's not that difficult.
Anyone can try to make a simple or more intricate winter composition even inside the home: on a glass interior door, closet door or mirror. And this does not require frost and moisture at all.
There are several ways to create one in your home. Let's try to figure out what is needed for this and what skills will be required from the performer.
Natural frosty pattern on the window
Winter stains on glass are essentially frost that forms under certain conditions on tree branches, wires and any other surface. This happens when the temperature drops below zero degrees. The moisture in the surrounding air freezes, turns into a solid state and settles in the form of ice crystals on exposed surfaces.
The same thing happens with windows. The seemingly smooth glass actually has minor scratches and cracks. Dust particles settle in them. Ice crystals falling on this heterogeneous and unequal surface, especially when exposed to gusts of wind, form a unique frosty pattern.
Unfortunately, with the advent of the sun or warmth, this beauty disappears. Modern plastic windows eliminate the possibility of frost streaks. Their double-glazed windows are reliably insulated, they fog up little from the inside and prevent freezing of the internal space.
But is it possible to stop a person with artistic inclinations who wants to create a frosty pattern on his window glass in the summer? Of course not!
Frosty pattern: imitation
If there are no two main factors - moisture and glass cooled to a negative temperature - the occurrence of natural frost on the window is impossible. Once you know the reasons for the formation of frost patterns, you can try to create them in the summer.
They come to the rescue chemical reactions crystallization of certain solutions. There are known methods for creating imitation frosty patterns using magnesium sulfate (other names: magnesia, bitter or can be used for these purposes (also known as antichlorine, hyposulfite, photographic fixer).
These chemical compounds are not dangerous substances; they can be purchased at pharmacies or chemical stores, and, subject to minimum safety requirements, used for decorative purposes to imitate a frosty pattern.
You will also need brushes to apply the design; you can use cotton pads, a sponge or other suitable items for this. To speed up the evaporation of moisture, it is convenient to use a hairdryer.
Chemical frost
To create a frosty pattern using magnesium sulfate, you need to dilute 50 mg of this substance in 100 g of beer and use this solution to paint streaks on a cleanly washed and dried window. After drying (you can speed up the process with a hairdryer), magnesia crystals will appear on the surface.
Another version of the working solution: the same magnesium sulfate, but instead of beer, boiled water is used and a tablespoon of diluted gelatin is added. Use a brush, sponge or cloth swab. The solution is applied with chaotic and disorderly movements onto the degreased glass.
Frosty patterns on glass with the help of sodium thiosulfate are formed after the evaporation of moisture from a working solution prepared from 40 g of this substance dissolved in a glass of water. The chemical pattern in this case will be white, denser, opaque, reminiscent of snow.
The technique for creating a drawing is selected individually. After several trials, you can develop certain skills. You need to try to depict frosty streaks, “feathers”, curls, impromptu snowflakes. Solution after unsuccessful attempt can be easily removed with a damp cloth and repeat the creative process again.
Wood glue
Previously in Soviet times frosty patterns on glass were obtained using the surface. It was necessary to remove the gloss, treat it until slightly dull with sandpaper or sand and abrasive. The bottom line is that when soaked in water and swollen, tile or granular wood glue dries out, wrinkles and shrinks in an unpredictable way.
If such a composition, heated to a fluid state in a water bath, is applied in a layer of up to 3 mm to glass treated until dull, then after a day it will begin to dry out. The composition adhered to the surface, shrinking during the hardening process, will form a network of unique patterns. After completion, the crumbled particles are carefully swept away with a brush.
The glass for such frost should not be thin, otherwise it will simply be bent and deformed by the tension force of the drying wood glue. The working composition is applied to a flat horizontal surface and left there for a day.
This frosty pattern remains forever. You should be careful when wiping off dust and washing glass after exposure to wood glue - the sharp edges of the design can injure the skin.
Painting with toothpaste
Not everyone will decide to paint window glass, citing the lack of artistic abilities or reluctance to wash paint off windows. But with the help of such material you can get easily washable designs. Frosty patterns with toothpaste are safe, this technology is accessible even to children.
Glass after unsuccessful creative processes They are easy to clean and even shine better afterwards. A Creative skills can be limited to just a simple spray of dissolved toothpaste from a spray bottle.
The main thing is to make up your mind, and once you understand the simplicity of the idea, you can try to paint the glass with a brush (preferably with stiff bristles) in the style of frosty frost. Strokes are applied starting from the corner and moving towards the center. To simplify, you can keep on hand a suitable image of a natural frosty pattern or any abstract picture.
according to the template
For people who don't want to paint, but want to decorate their windows with artificial frost, there is an easy way to create frosty designs with your own hands. The stencil with the finished composition will be the best solution for those who have never picked up a brush and paints.
You can purchase a template with a picture in a store or make it yourself. This won’t be difficult if you don’t immediately set yourself the goal of simulating realistic winter stains. You can download your favorite composition from the Internet, but it is better to draw it yourself, especially together with your child.
You can start with a simple snowman, a simple image of a Christmas tree, various animals, ornate stars. After transferring the design onto thick paper, the contours are carefully cut out. The template is applied to the glass or glued with tape and a solution of toothpaste diluted to a creamy state is applied.
If you add a little watercolor or gouache paint to it, you can get more opportunities for realizing your ideas. For application use a kitchen foam sponge or brush. You can use not only the sheet with the cutout as a background as a stencil, but also the image itself, applying the coloring composition around it.
With a small child who is used to tasting everything, you can arrange a fun drawing session. Frosty patterns can be made completely safe if you use powdered sugar to create them.
It can be attached to sterile glass using an adhesive base made from honey, sucrose, fructose or any tasty syrup diluted with water. If the baby really likes the result, he can even eat homemade frosty patterns.
The stencil is applied to the washed glass, edible adhesive is spread, then ground granulated sugar is applied with a puff or soft powder brush. Even a child can do this. The safety of the exciting process is ensured, the kids will be delighted. And they can safely taste the design after removing the stencil.
Artificial snow
There is another simple way to create frost on any surface. Frosty pattern on a window using a stencil can be quickly and easily applied using artificial snow. It is better to choose a can of this composition from the category of non-melting flakes.
To better choose a winter composition associated with New Year holidays. Snowflakes and all sorts of things will do fairy tale characters, operating in winter.
The glass is washed and wiped dry so that there is no condensation or wet stains left. Shake the can of snow thoroughly before use. The sides of the template must fit snugly against the glass so that clear frosty patterns can be obtained. It is better to attach the stencil with tape.
Spray the composition from a distance of 15 to 40 cm, depending on the desired effect of frost density. After applying snow, remove excess snow with a dry cloth, and carefully remove the stencil.
Snowflakes for windows
A frosty pattern on glass is not necessarily an ornate, unique design. For many people, a simple snowflake on a window is a symbol of winter and New Year's holidays.
You can start creating frosty patterns for children by making homemade paper masterpieces. The material can be any paper, but traditionally napkins were used for these purposes. They are already folded in four layers. All that remains is to make one more diagonal fold so that this is the middle part of the snowflake, take the scissors and start creating.
You can cut out the design using templates or come up with your own pattern. It is quite difficult to know in advance what a snowflake will turn out to be. Only after removing unnecessary details and unfolding the paper sheet can you imagine and understand how this or that turned out intricate pattern. Snowflakes can be decorated with sparkles, or you can cut them out of foil.
Anyone can make frosty patterns with their own hands, the main thing is to want it, allocate and spend a little time and effort. Mood, impressions and positive emotions are guaranteed.
