Meng Lelan Posted December 7, 2013 at 03:38 PM Report Posted December 7, 2013 at 03:38 PM Yes, I moved into a new home over the summer and with the Chinese New Year coming up soon I would like something new for the new house door. is there any online source where I can buy paper decorations for my door? When I lived in China ages ago there would be vendors selling red papercuts of 福 and they were quite big and ornate. I remember there was one with something like a hundred fu cut into it, amazing. I can't find any here in Texas of course. Hope someone here can help. Thanks. Quote

skylee Posted December 7, 2013 at 04:41 PM Report Posted December 7, 2013 at 04:41 PM I have posted this before. It is for computers and gadgets. But I imagine that if you have it printed, like as a big photo, it might be good for walls/doors or something. http://100.hku.hk/faichun2013/ Quote
Meng Lelan Posted December 7, 2013 at 04:45 PM Author Report Posted December 7, 2013 at 04:45 PM I've ordered from China Sprout before but my experiences with them have not been good. I do remember a long time ago I had a friend from Taiwan gave me a bag of free paper decorations from a local bank (not papercuts) and the bag had spring couplets and a square red paper with a golden fu character on it. Maybe I should try to go to Austin or Houston over winter vacation and see if they have anything, but nothing beats having a bag of free goodies from a bank in Taiwan! Do banks in Taiwan still do that? This was maybe ten years ago, so I don't know now. Quote
