五福临门: Five Home Decor Styling Tips for Blossoming Abundance in the New Year

BY SCENE SHANG

 

THE LUNAR NEW YEAR is an important time for many, signifying a new start, to walk forward from the past into new hope.

We’ve put together a list of five home decor styling tips especially for you, to bring in a hopeful and wonderful new year - filled with blossoming abundance.

1. 步步高升: To Rise Steadily


Raise your gaze - hang auspicious festive decor such as the FU Felt Coaster Set on the rungs of the BAO Bamboo Ladder.

Make use of vertical decor like shelves or bamboo ladders leaning against a wall to display decor, seasonal items or items you use frequently like articles of clothing.
 
Raise your gaze by placing items above your eye level when sitting or standing instead of focusing on items low on the ground.

 

2. 好事成双: Good Things Come in Pairs

Having another piece of the same home decor not only keeps a consistent look at home, but can also be a style strategy that makes an impact visually.

If you’re afraid things will get boring with repetition, why not trying pairing things with the same shape but in different colours?


3. 花开富贵：Blossoming Flowers Bring Good Fortune

Fresh flowers at home always uplift the mood and ambience. Place blooms of different colours, shapes and sizes in elegant vases to instantly bring life to a space.
 
If you’re not able to use fresh flowers, consider using high quality faux flowers made of silk for blooms that last, or for something different, why not consider adding flowers to your baking recipes?

4. 金玉满堂：Treasures Fill the Home

Fill your home only with things you love and treasure, and naturally your home will feel beautiful to you.
 
Be it the heirloom decor that you inherited from Grandma, or the newer piece of furniture that caught your imagination the very first time you laid eyes on it, each and every piece should fill you with a joy that in itself, is a treasure above all.

5. 团团圆圆：Loved Ones Gathered Together

Lunar New Year festivities is a time for loved ones to gather together at home - and also the perfect time to bring together all your occasional seating to accommodate numerous guests.  

Chairs, stools, benches, poufs, ottomans etc, which may be in different parts of the house during the rest of the year, can all be brought out into the living or dining space. Don’t worry if the furniture are of different looks, for even in differences, a harmony can be found.
