It’s a fact that no other country has as many festivals as India has. In India, the festive season is met with unparalleled zeal and enthusiasm. In India, festivals are all about bursts of colours, flowers, energy, ornaments, and a plethora of delicious snacks. Festivals are auspicious, and everyone around the country welcomes them by decorating their houses. This blog will show you a few best ways to decorate your home.
Add colours
Colour is one of the best ways to express celebration. There are a variety of creative methods to incorporate colour into your house and create a festive ambience. Hanging lanterns made of colourful paper are one of the most excellent ways to add colours. Another simple method to add colour is to spread bright flowers throughout your home in an elegant fashion. This will add an ultimate touch of colour. You can also add strategically positioned and well-chosen toss pillows to add even more vibrancy. You can also hang eye-catching colourful kites outside your windows and balcony. This is a great way to adorn the exterior of your home for the festive season.
Another easy way to add colours is changing the upholstery of your furniture. Changing the fabric of your sofa with ethnic designs and traditional themes will brighten the room and give it a fresh look. Colourful Rangolis are among important ways to decorate your home for festivals. You can also choose to give your home a festive feel by painting one or all walls of your living room with vibrant colours such as yellow, orange, red, or any other exotic hue.
Light up
Light is another most significant way to welcome a festival.
Begin the celebrations by lighting up your home space in a beautiful fashion to express the joy of the festival. Use string lights on windows and wherever else you want to add beauty to create a festive mood. Use fairy lights to immediately create a festive atmosphere in your house.
String lighting may also be utilised to illuminate the exterior of your property. To keep the celebratory feeling alive, place deeyas, candles, and kandil on the balcony and terrace. Make sure the living room is well illuminated and that the lighting is consistent throughout the house.
Enhance the Pooja room’s appearance
The pooja room is certainly the most important chamber during the festive seasons. It’s a place where everyone says their prayers and expresses their wishes with reverent whispers.
A lovely way to decorate a pooja room is by placing plants therein.
The pooja room should be well-lit and elegantly decorated. To brighten up the pooja area, use flowers, oil lamps, and bright lighting. Consider Decorating space with Rangoli designs in the traditional manner. Use aromatic candles and cover them with unique-shaped cups to provide fragrance to your puja space.
You can even have your deity sit on a stone-studded pedestal with a glass top.
Beautify Bedroom for festival
The beautification of your bedroom begins with the changes in the bed.
Replace your old bed sheet with new brightly coloured bed sheets that include traditional Indian art styles. Place pillows of contrasting colour schemes to create an eye-catching display on the bed. You may also place a flower vase near your bed to give colour and signal the presence of the festival. Also, you can place string lights inside empty glass jars and place them near the bed to align your bedroom with the spirit of the festival.
Rugs
A rug can be a wonderful way to style your room and get into a festive mood. To greet the season as well as guests, the rug will give colour and brightness to the decor.
A large area rug placed strategically in front of a chair or under a coffee table adds colour and texture to a living room. It is easily possible for a rug to become the focal point of the space it anchors. Try to use a rug with bold and colourful ethnic and traditional patterns.
Decorating Entrance
Entrance is the terminus a quo of and can create a strong impression of your home.
To create a calm ambience, adorn your entryway with flowers or use natural scents.
Drawing rangoli at your front door is one of the oldest rituals that is being followed today. Draw colourful designs on the main door’s entry to greet visitors. To add an ethnic flavour and create a pleasant and welcoming environment, use statement metal vases, classic copper or brass pots, and flowers. Floral arrangements, brilliantly coloured candles, colourful sculptures, diyas, and other objects can be used to add to the foyer’s grandeur. Traditional kolam drawings created with rice flour or chalk powder at the entrance are also a great way to greet your guests.
Bring in new furniture.
Furniture has the greatest impact on a home’s aesthetic. A single piece of furniture has the power to radically change the look of your home. Festival indicates fresh beginnings, and there is no better time to purchase new furniture than during this festival. On the auspicious eve of the festive season, bring in new furniture.
