The year 2016 is the year of the fire monkey. Most of us probably own wood furniture in the house which is a very strong element when combined with fire. Make sure that all elements at home are balanced by adding the element of water. An aquarium, a small fountain or any display with running water in the house will attract good fortune.

The Lucky color this year is blue. Using blue bed sheets and/or changing the upholstery of your sofa and chairs into blue will bring in prosperity in your homes.

Red will always be a lucky color. So what are you waiting for? Choose a wall in your house and paint it red. You don't have to paint the whole room, one wall is good enough. I suggest that you do this in the recieving area this will serve as your accent wall at home.

Move on from the past and throw away clutter that may give us bad luck, keep good memories and throw away the bad. Especially if you are not using some items anymore, it's time for you to dispose them.

This year is a fire! Add radiance in your homes and put scented candles everywhere, it can be placed on the side tables of your rooms, or as a center piece in your dining or living room area.

Put some garlands around the house. Hang them on the windows and on the doors. This will make monkeys feel free and comfortable which will help bring good luck and happiness inside your house.

The color of fire such as red, yellow, orange and gold are bright colors. We need to calm those colors by adding colors of nature around the house such as blue and green with home accessories.
