A garland full of luck for your party decor! Our lucky charm coloring page shows two strings of pennants with six lucky symbols. Print it for free, color it in and hang it up as New Year's Eve decor.
Why this garland works so well
Two strings hang one above the other, each with three triangle pennants and little punched holes. The top row shows a pig, a four-leaf clover and a horseshoe; the bottom row has a second horseshoe, a spotted ladybug and a mushroom. Every design is built from clear geometric shapes – circles, rectangles and arcs. A few rounded hills at the bottom finish the picture.

New Year's luck around the world
People everywhere wish for luck at the turn of the year. In Spain, people eat twelve grapes at the twelve chimes of midnight – one for each month. In Denmark, many jump off a chair into the new year. In Scotland, the big New Year's celebration is called Hogmanay. In Japan, temple bells ring 108 times around midnight. And in Germany, families pour melted wax into cold water and guess what the shapes say about the year ahead.
