In order to coordinate, residents should stick Spring Festival couplets with a width of 15-20 cm, and the length is more than half of the doorframe, while merchants should stick Spring Festival couplets with a length of about 20-30 cm and a length of more than half of the doorframe, which is harmonious and generous. As for the gates of some tall buildings, if Spring Festival couplets are posted, the width of the couplets should not exceed 40 cm, and the length should also exceed half of the doorframe.
The best time to post Spring Festival couplets:
Generally speaking, it is best to post it between 6 am and noon 12 on New Year's Eve. Tear up the old one before pasting the Spring Festival couplets, or you can't paste the new one, but there is a lot of stress in it.
There is a folklore that Spring Festival couplets are immortals in the sky. When they are shredded and burned, they will go to heaven to report the people's situation to the Jade Emperor, hoping that the gods can bring good luck to the folk families. If you tear it early and burn it early, the fairy will report it. But before the Spring Festival, the Jade Emperor felt that there was something wrong with this family. If it's too late, it's too late for the gods to bless.
Therefore, it is best to tear Spring Festival couplets between 6: 00 am and 12 noon on the first New Year's Eve. After tearing, you can paste new couplets, which means removing the old cloth and making new ones.
