Yesterday, 16 February was the beginning of the celebration of the Chinese New Year, the Year of the Dog. It is a celebration of food and well wishes of joy, prosperity and excellent health to family and friends. Here at Holt Renfrew on Bloor St, Toronto, they celebrated with a display of the Banyan Tree wishing tree where guest can write on a paper their wish and hang it on the tree. Tradition stated that the wishing paper is usually tossed up onto the tree and if it successfully hangs onto the tree, the wishes will come true. May all of our wishes come true.

What a beautiful display to celebrate it! Happy Chinese New Year Pamela! xo
ReplyDeleteI would like to place one wish on that tree too! Maybe if I am lucky enough it will happen!
