Clean Up Your Act

With four days left until Chinese New Year, it's time to clean up your home and office. Thursday is the day to thoroughly clean every nook and cranny. Be sure to finish your cleaning with a good sweeping because sweeping and cleaning are among the activities to be avoided during Chinese New Year. Be sure to sweep toward the front door to ensure more luck in the New Year.

Once everything is clean, it's time to decorate with Chūnlián (春聯), spring couplets with auspicious words, and other decorations like mini firecrackers and gold ingots.
