Choosing the right colors for each object also helps to show sophistication and send the best wishes on the occasion of the beginning of Spring.
Accordingly, housewives can refer to 3 basic colors but should prioritize choosing them during this Tet holiday.
Red
Red is always a traditional color for Tet lucky money envelopes. According to folk beliefs, red is of fire and sunlight, so this color has the meaning of bringing good luck for a year of many advantages and smooth traffic.
A red lucky money envelope sent to family and friends also brings a message wishing good health and all things as desired. This is a suitable color to give lucky money to grandparents, parents or young children, expressing respect and love.
Metallic gold
Besides red, metallic yellow is also a very popular lucky money envelope color this Tet. Yellow symbolizes power and wealth. According to feng shui, yellow represents stability and prosperity.
Yellow lucky money envelopes, especially those printed with sparkling glitter, will be suitable for colleagues and partners. This color also sends New Year wishes for prosperous business, smooth business and many successes in work.
Blue
2026 is the year of Binh Ngo, destined for Thien Ha Thuy (water in the sky). Therefore, colors belonging to the Water element such as blue or sea blue are predicted to be the most popular trend this Tet.
Unlike the brilliant appearance of red or yellow envelopes, blue lucky money envelopes bring a feeling of lightness and peace. Blue represents faith, hope and a new beginning.
Therefore, choosing blue lucky money envelopes in the year of Binh Ngo will hope for a year of ease and peace in life.
