In addition to the special themed decorations, the main decorations required for the celebration consist of chunlian (inverted fu), flower arrangements, paper lanterns, dining table decorations, couplets and door hangers. Other decorations that must be present in the house are firecrackers, a kumquat tree, and eight treasure boxes.

There are also paper-cutting decorations with different shapes with different meanings. For example, peaches symbolize longevity; pomegranate for fertility; peonies for honor and wealth; while the pine tree for youth.
