Variety of Christmas decoration designs
At this time, the Christmas atmosphere has begun to bustle. The gift and decoration market in Hanoi attracts a large number of customers to visit and shop thanks to its eye-catching designs and diverse types.
Ngoc Linh (Hai Phong) took the opportunity to go to town early to buy Christmas decorations: ''This year I see many new and beautiful designs. The prices are suitable for most people's budgets, I chose to buy a small Christmas tree to put on my desk''.
Along with traditional items such as Christmas trees, golden bells,... foam snowmen are also loved by many customers.
Make a lot of money from snowman making
Mr. Vu Anh Tuan (on Hang Luoc Street, Hoan Kiem District, Hanoi) - the owner of a Christmas decoration production facility with more than 20 years of experience in creating foam snowmen - shared: ''Since the end of November, my store has had many orders. Mainly businesses, coffee shops,... come to shop very early''.
Mr. Tuan said that at this time, he and his wife have to work overtime from morning to late at night because they cannot hire more workers.
“Currently, the shop sells nearly 30 snowmen every day, earning nearly 10 million VND, not including labor and materials. However, this job is only seasonal, after the festival season, I go back to making votive offerings,” Mr. Tuan happily shared.
For large foam snowmen of 2m - 3m in size, Mr. Tuan needs about 2 - 3 days to complete. For smaller snowmen, it takes about 3 hours to complete.
While looking to buy Christmas decorations, Ms. Nguyen Huong Tra (Hoan Kiem) said that every year, her family buys a few decorative accessories to make the house more sparkling and warm: ''This year, I chose to buy an additional foam snowman for 550,000 VND because my children really like it''.
