Everyone sets to decorate their houses with the best efforts possible. But it is also easy to get confused about where to start and what all to do. As we understand your emotional attachment to your house and the way you want it to be perfect, there is not much to worry about how you can revive your home this Diwali. Here are a few Home Decor ideas for Diwali-
Give your ‘Diya’ an unconventional touch
Diwali decoration can never be complete without Diyas. You may find many kinds of Diyas on the market including the traditional earthen diyas, candle diyas, painted diyas, floating diyas, electric diyas etc. You can easily get these around you or if you have a weekend to spare and you can add your personal touch to them. Instead of lighting up single-coloured diyas, try painting them with peppy colours like green, red, yellow, or other colours that might also go with the colour scheme and theme of your house. You can put these Diyas in a large earthen pot or vessel and fill it with water. While the Diyas float in the vessel you can fill up the empty spaces with whole flowers or their petals. And guess what? Floral diyas are the new trend !!
Design Rangolis
Another one of the inseparable home decor elements of Diwali is Rangolis. Not only is it auspicious to make a rangoli at home but also adds a splash of festive colours to it. You can make Rangoli in your home with rangoli colours or leftover Holi colours as well. If you consider yourself a novice at drawing, you can also buy Rangoli pattern stencils. But apart from colours, you can also try making a floral Rangoli on the floor and decorating it with candles and Diyas. You can use different colours of flowers like Rose, Orchids, Marrygold etc. It is up to you to awaken your creative self by experimenting with different designs and patterns.
Lanterns and Lamps to light up your home
Everyone starts lighting up their house during Diwali. While some use earthen Diyas others use colourful Diwali lights. These are the simplest way to decorate your homes. But if you want to go an extra mile for home decor, you can use interesting lamps and lanterns in your house that create a very serene and holy effect. And these also give the feel of contemporary Diwali home decor. If you are up for some DIY projects, you can use coloured paper cups and add a bulb to them, after which they can be chained to create a scintillating effect.
