How to cut the couplets?

First, the width and length of the door list are not used. The height of the door is generally a fixed size, and the length of the paper used in the couplet is generally determined according to the length of the door. Fold the door twice according to the width of the door, and cut it with a knife along the gap along the trace of the second folding! If there are several identical doors, you can also fold several pairs at one time and cut them out together.

At the beginning, people carved the names of gods on mahogany and put them at the door, thinking that this could exorcise ghosts and evil spirits. Later, it gradually developed into Spring Festival couplets and became a custom to increase the festive atmosphere during the Spring Festival. Spring Festival couplets, also known as "couplets" and "door couplets", are neat and concise, and are generally popular greetings for people to express their good wishes for the new year.
