What will the 2016 Chinese new year bring for homeowners? What are the Feng Shui suggestions to bring the home good luck this year? 2016 is regarded to be the year of the fire monkey and Family Holiday details that the color "red" is one lucky color that will bring prosperity this year.
The year of the red fire monkey according to the outlet starts on Feb 8, 2016 to Jan. 27, 2017. Feng Shui suggestions that will bring good luck for the home are still the neutral favorites and the more natural colors like green and brown. It was also included that incorporating fixtures and accessories with the red color is a good addition to the home like "vases of pretty tree blossoms, hot colored Chinese paper lanterns."
Meanwhile, Susan Levitt details that the part of the house exhibiting most of the fire element is the living room. The major change that we need to do to capture the "yang" element in the room is by fixing it regularly and making the living room meet up to our expectations. It is also regarded that the living room is the "heart" of the house and therefore needs a "bright, lively color" to work with it. The paint options suggested for the living room are purple and all shades of red.
Going natural and inviting essences that nature impose is also healthy for the year of the monkey. Plants that exhibit fruitfulness and growth are great to boost "good money fortune" for the home. Speaking Tree suggests to put this plant on a "far left corner of your home and putting in coins beneath the pot."
Wood is also suggested to enhance luck this year of the fire monkey. If you are fond of buying furnitures and accessories that are "fake" in nature, you can try alternating this to materials with wood materials instead. Uplift the smell of the home with fresh fragrances like "grass, basil and cucumber" or making use of diffusers and aromatherapy oils.
