- These toys brought my mom, - showed decorations of the daughter of Helen Sparrow Sonya, selecting the most beloved from the box. - That's this Santa Claus Mom found in England. And the top of me is epic, - the artist continues, pointing to the star. - I have all the feet of stupid, while I found an asterisk. Just in childhood, I always had a top in the form of a five-pointed star. Another, of course, vintage. But I walked all the flea markets, such no. Even this I found hard. Disassemble them like hot cakes. Therefore, this star is for me - time machine, return to childhood.
There are still your favorite birds, a winter version of a welder and sparrows. I found them in the Czech Republic. We went to tour in Prague, and there I saw these beauties, scored. They were decoration of the showcase. Czechs do not know me, I had to give them a disk, to fulfill a couple of rooms. In general, after I launched them, fulfilling the parody of Lady Gaga, they gave me these birds.

- We dress up every year, this is a family process. Most of this are waiting for children, waiting for new toys. The right right to dress up the Christmas tree must earn. That is, the more "five" - the sooner dressing.

- Well, everything happens. (Smiles.) Well, in the last week, she is straightforwards claws to fix everything to the maximum, well close the year and get gifts. In general, I love to take part in the process of decorating the Christmas tree, but sometimes we invite a professional designer. And if I see that in front of me the true master, I just enjoy and study quietly. I think: why did he do it, and how was the one or another idea born? If I see that the process is dropping, I try to throw up ideas.
- Looking at your enthusiasm, I can assume that the New Year's mood has already appeared ...
- Often the New Year's mood appears, it is only worth looking at the Christmas tree. Light bulbs will turn on - and in general it will be great. You will need to buy garlands, as well as a bunch of clappers, whistle, Petarda. Every year we buy salutes and fireworks. Well, they are exhibited, of course, men at a safe distance. Last year we had riding in the Russian Troika - surprise from the fan in the New Year's Eve after the Kuranta fight. It was great. In general, I haven't been leaving for the new year for the last year. I just managed to drag the family to Moscow, children had a sense of a family holiday. And if the head of the family in the face of Elena Sparrow will leave for corporate anywhere far, then the holiday will not work. Therefore, I am inventing a family concert and all use.
- What program is waiting for households this year?

Soynyushka is preparing for a serious ballroom dancing competition. Pope and mom finally received readers here and start receiving a Moscow retirement. And on the basis of these events, I will write something to the new year.

- Do you have funny situations for the new year?
- I still remember one of the holidays of my childhood. We waited for the guests, and in honor of this mom decided to bake a cake with a cherry layer. And she did not cook the jam, and it was necessary to get it somewhere. Mom gave me money and sent to the store, but on the road the jar was opened. At first, one cherry was eaten, then five, then ten. So all the cherries disappeared from the jam. I understood that I could not come without berries, I smeared my hands in jam and with tears in my eyes I said that I broke the bank. And here the neighbor is knocking and says to my parents: "What are you not feeding, she doesn't eat on the jar from the bank!" In general, the deception was opened, after that I was punished, I did not receive a gift, and the cherry jam since then also loved so much.
- By the way, about gifts. I want to know what gifts give Elena Sparrow for the new year?
- The most expensive gift - Nork coat, to the floor. It was just a corporate. One rich man who really applies to all artists and to me, in particular, said: "I want our meeting and the holiday to be remembered. It seems to me that you are freezing ... "It's like in the movie" Morozko ": Do you heat, maiden, whether you, Red? I said that he was warm, and on me the kutsay jacket was. And he says: "And something seems to me that you are freezing. Dress on Elena! " And I put a luxurious fur coat. She was great me a bit, but still in my wardrobe. Every new year I wear it.
- Artist Sparrow The festive table itself covers or buys ready?
"We are always preparing Olivier." Do you need to dip somewhere after the holiday? We still make a goose neck, stuffed with Liver; eggs stuffed with white mushrooms; Baking goose. And make a desire, like everyone else. I am writing my santa Claus Esemace. This year I wish that there were many reasons for a smile and good mood.
