The Spring Festival always begins on doors and walls. Spring couplets (春联) stand for people’s wishes for a happier life in the coming year.

The couplets are written on red paper. They are the most important symbol of the Spring Festival. Although people are busy with all kinds of things before the Spring Festival, sticking couplets is always in the first place on the to-do list. And my mother would ask me to take some gifts to people who wrote couplets for us. When they were writing, I would watch how they used the brush to create these wonderful works.

Later when I was a little older, my parents encouraged me to learn how to write couplets. I asked some elder people to teach me some skills. When learning from them, I became greatly interested in traditional culture. Every time when our family visited relatives during the Spring Festival, I always collected the poems of the couplets and used them to express my good wishes like “health, wealth and long-life” to my relatives.

Nowadays as the science and technology is developing rapidly, couplets are mainly produced by machines. We can easily buy all kinds of beautiful couplets on the streets. Though forms of making couplets have changed, the best wishes that couplets express remain. The red paper and black words are not only used to write the couplets, but also carry our love for traditional culture. They will never be forgotten.

Do you often see someone make coffee art? But do you know people can do the same thing with tea? People make tea art in cups, or dian cha in Chinese. It was a ritual (仪式) during the Song Dynasty.

Chinese tea culture started to become popular during the Tang Dynasty. Different from the way of brewing tea (泡茶) during the Tang Dynasty, in the Song Dynasty the popular way of having tea was through dian cha. It begins like this. First people pour to water over fine powered tea to make a paste (糊状物). Then they pour more hot water slowly. At the same time, people need to whisk (搅动) the tea. This action of pouring hot water is called dian, so it’s called dian cha.

Now many people are interested in this special way of drinking tea. They think dian cha makes drinking tea fun.

Chinese paper-cutting or Jianzhi, is a kind of folk art. People usually use scissors (剪刀) or knives to cut paper. It has a long history of about 1,500 years. Let’s learn something about paper-cutting.

Wonderful meanings

Paper-cutting has some wonderful meanings. Some paper-cuttings mean (寓意) happiness and good luck. At the Spring Festival, people paste (粘贴) “Fu” on doors or windows. At a wedding, people paste “Xi”.

Why is it red?

In China, people always love red. In our mind, red is hope and life, so red is our favourite. We can see red everywhere in China. The walls of old palaces are red. Lanterns are red. Weddings are always full of red things, too.

Black paper-cutting in Shanzhou

Many of the paper-cuttings are red, but paper-cuttings in Shanzhou, Henan Province are black. Black is the best color there. Shanzhou is a dry place. People make black paper-cuttings and wish for rain.

Now, paper-cutting gets into many schools. Students can learn how to make paper-cutting at school. Li Jie, a middle school student, says, “It’s really wonderful to change paper into different kinds of pictures, such as flowers and animals. We enjoy it.”
