#Red Envelope

[ijustwannahavefunn]

I was planning to only make a celebration drawing this year, but I noticed the size is perfect for making red envelopes, sooo... I made some myself! I'll upload the pdf file on my Patreon. Although I know most people who follow me probably don't celebrate the Lunar New Year haha :'D Still tho, HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR!

Btw, my little bro took that photo for me, thank you dude <3

Happy Chinese New Year🦇

Traditionally, Red Packets (红包) are handed out by married couples. They’re typically given to elders like grandparents and parents, as well as single adults and kids. Giving red packets is about spreading goodwill and wishing others good fortune. It’s a meaningful gesture, but don’t stress yourself out trying to hit a certain amount – it’s the thought that counts. Resist the urge to tear open your ang bao in front of everyone. It’s considered bad manners to count cash in public. Instead, save the excitement for when you’re back home – privacy makes it all the sweeter!

Here’s the lowdown: avoid any amount with the number four – it’s traditionally linked to death and bad luck. So steer clear of $4, $14, or $44 red packets unless you want some awkward stares. On the flip side, eight is the superstar of numbers! It’s considered super lucky because it sounds like “fa,” which means wealth in Chinese. That’s why amounts like $8, $18, or $88 are crowd favourites. Oh, and one more tip: stick to even numbers for your ang baos. The Chinese believe “good things come in pairs,” so it’s an easy way to make your gesture extra auspicious!

Ang Pau (red envelope, red packet) or Hong Bao (红包) would have been the highlight of Chinese New Year until you progressed from being a receiver to a giver. Now these red packets can become a chore, especially when you have to allocate a good amount for your relatives’, friends’ or neighbours’ children. So, what’s the appropriate amount of money to give away in each packet during Chinese New Year? Giving too little might leave a bitter taste in someone’s mouth; giving too much could also be a faux pas. If you’ve never done this before or are still struggling to understand the general amount to give, here’s a simple guide. This is simply a general guide so you have an idea of what to expect; how much you give can vary depending on your family and your financial situation.

Sewed and embroidered my own red envelope this year. Did a couching stitch with a metallic gold thread. I don't know if I'll keep doing this for the next 11 years. We'll see!
