How to post Spring Festival couplets?

When you go out, you will stick it outside the door facing the door, and when you look up, you will stick it on the wall inside the house.

Folk Spring Festival couplets pay attention to god stickers, household stickers and everything stickers, so the Spring Festival couplets are the largest in number and the most comprehensive in content. The couplets in front of the statues are particularly particular, and they are mostly words of admiration and blessing. There is a common connection between heaven and earth: "the sky is as deep as the sea and the earth is as heavy as a mountain"; Land god alliance.

There are also some single couplets, such as "Looking up at happiness" in every room, "Going out to see happiness" across the door, "Ascending to heaven" on the flourishing fire, "Living in the yard", "Roots and leaves" on the tree, "White Tiger Universiade" on the stone mill and so on.

Paste position of Spring Festival couplets

Take Zhoukou, Henan Province as an example. Every time Spring Festival couplets are posted, a pair of short horizontal couplets are posted on each portal, a pair of long vertical couplets are posted on each door frame on both sides, and a rectangular door picture is posted on each door heart. Other places also have the custom of posting long and short couplets, and there are not many other styles, so the posting method in Zhoukou area is the simplest.

In Kaifeng area, in addition to short horizontal couplets, several "oblique squares" are often pasted on the lintel. The center of the door is mostly a slightly wider and longer rectangular "paper strip" or door painting. Some provinces put more colored paper "diagonal squares" on their doors, which is similar to the custom in other provinces. In short, it is colorful, which is more complicated than the posting method in Zhoukou area, but it looks beautiful.
