" Trinkets "

Photobucket

Two weeks before Chinese New Year, at the heart of Chinatown are these exuberant lucky charms hanging as ornaments seen on streets and stalls.
Red symbolizes luck and Gold is for prosperity.
There are a myriad of wonderful designs for you to choose from.
Find anything fancy? ^0^

  8. Very colorful. Reminded me of my grandpop ( half chinese sya). Dami sa bahay nila ng ganyang mga pampaswerte.

    Gusto ko yung fish. Kung may magic ako, gagawin ko ng ginto para yumaman ako hahaha.

  10. These are a familiar sight, being that I lived in San Francisco for 7 years, home of the largest Chinese community in US. Nicely captured.
