Here are some more information for Asian Red:
Combine the exotic, the romantic and the green with Asian wedding favors and garden wedding favors. The diversity of traditions and lure of the Far East gives you ample opportunity to come up with creative and unique wedding favors. There is always something inherently mysterious about these marriage traditions. Garden settings also make great venues for any Asian wedding or theme party.
But the feeling always is to spin a mysterious web of love among the families and friends of the couple. Asian weddings are also known to span several days at a time with guests being invited by the thousands making them so much more elaborate than weddings in the West.
The colors at Asian weddings too, are deep reds, golds and yellows. It is a good idea to keep these things in mind when you want to match your favors with the Asian wedding theme or a garden venue setting.
Candles are possibly the most apt garden themed favors or Asian wedding favors. Candles make for great romantic dinners beneath the open sky in an evening setting. In the Eastern traditions, the importance of candles can hardly be emphasized more.
As rich as the Orient traditions is the 'Chinese tapestry' votive candle. The deep-red wax 'work of art' is accented with vibrant red organza and 'double-happiness' tag. The red braid ending in two large, gold-thread-trimmed tassels makes this Asian wedding favor just too awesome to resist. It comes for $2.02 per piece. For your garden wedding favors, you can give away tiny green candles or the 'perfect pear' pair of candles. There are also the 'Plumeria' floral scented candles with ceramic candle holders that make perfect Asian or garden themed favors.
Symbolism is also an intrinsic part of Asian wedding themes. Symbols for garden wedding favors need to be based on Nature like leaves, petals and flowers, but for the Asian theme, you will need symbols like circles, the Om and dragons etc. A sweet Asian favor gift that actually would make an interesting garden favor gift too is the 'Double Happiness' box that has a rich, red and gold, tapestry like design. The box is beautifully accented by a metallic-gold bow.
Silk is another Eastern motif that can be used in brocade purses and boxes, notebooks, bookmarks and key rings. If you really want to get Japanese or Chinese, impress your guests with silk fans and a pair of intricately designed chopsticks in cherry blossom colors. Your guests will love these fancy keepsakes as wedding guest gifts.
Green is also a popularly used color in Asian traditions. For a garden wedding favor you can combine the Asian gift idea with the green. Or, maybe, pick up stuff like packets of seeds and an assortment of chocolates for your green favors. Purses, 'blooming flower' bottle stoppers, miniature water cans, flower motif place card holders and more will make your guests remember you always and the wedding party a memorable one.

Furniture Design With Feng Shui And Other Asian Themes
For many years now, Asia has been the leading designer in many applications. In the past, they have had superior technology and design for electronics, and they have produced many of the best selling, most reliable cars on the road. With such innovative minds and high work ethics, Japan and China have led the way in many fields, so it should come as no surprise that the latest area in which their traditions have become prevalent is home design.
Two very distinct decorating styles have come from Japan in recent years, with hints here and there from China and other Asian cultures also infringing on the styles popular in American society. You can trace back the fascination to the art of the dragon, the artistic language (all written in symbols rather than characters as with many languages), and other such influences. It began with the fringe of American society, with youths getting tattoos and body art in Asian styles, and now it has progressed into a way of life and overall home design.
Minimalism has long been a theme of Japanese and other Asian design. In fact, many traditional Asian homes do not have furniture as American and European homes do. Instead, mattresses lay on the floor, and seating at mealtime is pillows around a table no higher than an American coffee table. Homes are small, and one room may be used for several functions, much like an efficiency apartment in the United States. While still artistic, the beauty in the few furnishings kept is their sharp angles, basic colors, and pure functionality. American design has begun to copy this trend, reverting to minimalist furniture design, without the large cushions, ornate decoration, and imposing size. In some homes, less furniture is used altogether to mimic the Asian cultures.
One specific design theme that has become quite prevalent in American society is Feng Shui. There is more to this than just a home décor style - Feng Shui is a way of life. It is about enlightenment and the ability to find inner peace. Feng Shui is using design as a way to strengthen, enlighten and protect an environment.
Interestingly enough, the colors most often associated with Feng Shui are black and red, with some burnt orange or yellow and deep brown mixed in. These colors have long been shunned in American design because black is thought to be a depressing color. While red has been thought to incite anger, many Feng Shui consultants recommend red to produce a protective and inspiring environment. It is believed that minimalist design used in combination with appropriate colors and the addition of the correct décor can produce a sense of peace and enlightenment.
A brief study of Asian cultures can assist in building an idea of where the future of design is headed. For many years companies such as Sony and Toyota were trend setters for the Western Industrial World. Design is one more aspect in which you can expect to see the West following the lead of Eastern examples for a long time to come.

How come some Asian Indian women wear a red dot on their forehead between their eyes. What does it mean?
It means you shot her in the head, you stupid cowboy.
