The point of Chinese New Year, also known as the “Spring Festival” or “Lunar New Year,” is a hundred-old tradition that involves a big family dinner. Many families visit their elders and return home for a traditional Chinese New Year dinner with relatives and friends. One of the most important aspects of this preparation is refreshing the home with new furniture, or redecorating the house with various Chinese New Year accessories.
A Welcoming Entrance
The entrance is the first impression guests receive when they visit your home. Consider placing a beautifully crafted console table made of teak wood, decorated with traditional Chinese ornaments and fresh flowers. This not only creates a welcoming atmosphere but also attracts positive energy.
Living Room
The living room is where the family gathers to celebrate and relax. You can welcome guests by placing a comfortable sofa in the living room. Choose a comfortable sofa set made of natural rattan or synthetic wicker, which offers style and durability. Add colorful cushions and a coffee table to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Chinese New Year often uses bright colors, so don’t be afraid to use red and gold accents.
Festive Dining Room
The dining room is the focal point of Chinese New Year celebrations, where families gather to enjoy delicious meals. A dining table set made from teak or natural rattan can convey elegance and tradition. Decorate the dining table with a festive tablecloth, traditional tableware, and centerpieces featuring fresh flowers or fruit.
A Calm Bedroom
Creating a calm bedroom is essential for relaxation and sleep comfort. Choose quality wood furniture, such as a bed frame and nightstands. Add a soft, plush mattress and incorporate calming colors, such as soft greens and blues.
Adding new furniture during Chinese New Year is not just a tradition; it’s about creating a space that reflects harmony, prosperity, and warmth. By carefully selecting natural rattan, synthetic wicker, and teak furniture, you can ensure that your home is ready to welcome the new year with open arms and positive energy.
Happy Chinese New Year and may your home be filled with joy, love, and good fortune!
