Using the character Chun, the word associated with Spring, is a widespread Chinese tradition associated with Chinese New Year and can be seen on the entrances of many Chinese homes worldwide.
The characters are generally printed on a square piece of paper or stitched in fabric. The practice is universal among Chinese people regardless of socioeconomic status, and dates to at least the Song Dynasty (AD 960 – 1279).
