As the Chinese New Year, also known as the Spring Festival, approaches, we immerse ourselves in the rich traditions and customs that define this auspicious time of year. In celebration of this festive season, we engage in the art of DIY crafting to create unique and meaningful Spring Festival couplets, a cherished tradition that symbolizes good fortune, prosperity, and blessings for the coming year.
The Significance of Spring Festival Couplets
Spring Festival couplets, or "Chunlian"春聯 in Chinese, are traditional decorations displayed during the Chinese New Year to usher in good luck and prosperity. These poetic couplets are typically written on red paper and hung on doorways or walls to welcome the new year with auspicious messages and well-wishes.
