After continuous derivative development, it has formed a huge influence in the folk. The technique of color binding is mainly based on bone paper mounting, supplemented by surface painting. Due to different customs and products, there are some differences in the specific materials. In some places, straw is used as bone instead of bamboo strips, and plain colored cloth, silk or leather paper is used as surface. In Handan, Hebei, colorful cloth is directly mounted with various kinds of cloth. The color decoration will also have its own characteristics due to the changes of regions.
