What's so particular about stick grilles during the Spring Festival?

During the New Year in China, everyone's house is decorated with lanterns. In addition, on New Year's Eve, there are ever-burning lamps at home.

This is a rule left by our ancestors. It indicates that we will be prosperous in the coming year. There are old people who have died at home. Although you can't dress up and do filial piety for the elderly, you should also be brightly lit to illuminate the direction, which indicates a good start for the coming year.

Someone suggested redecorating the house after the old man died. This is to prevent people from thinking about things, which will eventually lead to excessive thinking and harm to the body. Besides, the old people have lived in this house for a long time. Presumably, the decoration is outdated, and even rotting and redecorating is conducive to the cleanliness of the house.

Stick paper-cuts on the windows.

During the Spring Festival, people in many areas like to stick various paper-cuts on their windows-window grilles. Window grilles can not only set off the festive atmosphere, but also bring people beautiful enjoyment, integrating decoration, appreciation and practicality.

Paper-cutting is a very popular folk art, which has been loved by people for thousands of years. Because it is often pasted on windows, people generally call it "window grilles". Window grilles are rich in content and wide in subject matter. Because the buyers of window grilles are mostly farmers, window grilles have quite a lot of content to express farmers' lives, such as farming, weaving, fishing, herding sheep, raising pigs and chickens.

In addition, there are myths and legends, drama stories and other themes. In addition, the images of flowers and birds, insects and fish, and the zodiac are also very common.
