Chinese New Year 2020

Kung Hei Fat Choy! January isn’t the only month in the year where we celebrate New Year; February also sees some parts of the world observe the Chinese Lunar New Year. Other than being a national holiday in the Philippines, the Chinese New Year celebration is set to be full of gatherings serving delicious Chinese food, spectacular firework displays in various malls, and dragon dances on the street. One other trend during this season is the rise of feng shui’s popularity.

In its simplest definition, feng shui is the relationship of people with the surroundings. “Feng” literally means wind and “shui” means water. This 3,000-year-old ancient study originating from China aims to determine which interiors and design will bring good luck and energy depending on the Chinese zodiac sign of the year. Here are some Chinese New Year decorations which will help make this year your most fruitful, harmonious, and successful one yet. Read on and see the recommended Chinese New Year decorations you can place in your home!


1. Gold Metal Wall Art with Mirror from Shelter

A mirror that not only shows you that you look good but also brings in luck? Yes, please.

Feeling a sense of ease and harmony are top priorities, even in design. Examples of hues bound to give you luck include pink pastels, light grays, dark browns, and of course, regal gold. Gold isn’t only set to give you luck this year, but its timelessness and elegance also make any house feel and look like a million bucks.



Shelter’s gold metal wall art doesn’t only fit the color scheme for luck, but it also serves as a modern, geometric wall décor that’ll give the room a sense of grandeur. The piece also serves as a mirror for added functionality.


2. Vertical Blinds from Colour Starr Blinds

Location: Avida Towers, Chino Roces Avenue, Makati

Aside from vertical blinds, the store also offers wood and Venetian blinds

Another very important factor in feng shui is the natural lighting in an area. It is advised that a room should never be too illuminated that light can get in, as having too much light can disrupt the balance between energies. Feng shui is all about stability, after all. The solution? Window blinders which can help you control how much light you let into the room.

Colour Starr Blinds’ vertical blinds are easy to operate, have a sleek and simple design, and will not completely draw out all lighting even when closed. Its neutral color will also make it fit for any room in the house you choose to put it in.



3. Marble Clock from Papemelroti

Since feng shui is all about being surrounded by positive energy from the world and its natural elements, using environmentally-friendly products is believed to bring you good fortune. So opt for greener alternatives both for your interior décor and exterior landscaping.

For a minimalist interior décor that’s made without cruelty, there’s Papemelroti’s Marble Clock. Made out of medium density fiberboard with a matte finish, the clock comes in two color variations: Green and White or Pink and White.

Being original, individualistic, and creative are things you can aspire to no matter the year. And what better way to be unconventional and ingenious for your home décor than by doing do-it-yourself (DIY) projects?

Common Room PH’s Mossarium Makers Kit doesn’t only fit the bill in being a DIY project, but it’s also eco-friendly. The set includes all the materials you need to make a Terrabulb, which is a moss terrarium inside a lightbulb. The excellent pieces of lush, crafty décor require no maintenance after assembly at all so they can be placed anywhere in the home without worry.

Update: The Mossarium Makers Kit from Common Room is currently unavailable, but other mossariums are available on Common Room’s website.



We all need a little bit of luck for the long year ahead. And while nothing is guaranteed, these home decorations are good efforts in making 2019 both blessed and fortunate.
