1, the pasting method of Spring Festival couplets
Traditionally, the first couplet of Spring Festival couplets should be posted on the right hand side (that is, the left side of the door), and the second couplet should be posted on the left hand side (that is, the right side of the door), and the horizontal batch is also read from right to left. Upper and lower couplets cannot be posted backwards.
2. Selection of Spring Festival couplets size
In order to coordinate, it is advisable to stick Spring Festival couplets on residents' doors with a width of 15-20 cm and a length of more than half of the doorframe, while merchants should stick Spring Festival couplets with a width of about 20-30 cm and a length of more than half of the doorframe, which is harmonious and generous. As for the gates of some tall buildings, if Spring Festival couplets are posted, the width of the couplets should not exceed 40 cm, and the length should also exceed half of the doorframe.
It's time to post Spring Festival couplets.
According to different local customs, the time for posting Spring Festival couplets is slightly different. As the saying goes, "Twenty-eight, decals", and there is a folk song called "Twenty-nine, Spring Festival couplets upside down" in some places. Spring Festival couplets are usually posted on the 28th and 29th of the twelfth lunar month, but most people are not very particular about it.
