by Astro Ved Online Astrology Consultation

Diwali is one of the most significant Hindu festivals, plus it is the time of the year where people consider cleaning, painting, and decorating their homes. As per the beliefs, Goddess Laxmi, on the night of Diwali, visits the homes and sanctifies them with prosperity and fortune. Thus people always adorn their homes to welcome the Goddess as well as to beautify it.

Well, other than cleaning and painting, decorating the home with Diwali-themed ideas is also significant. The décor should speak for itself, and that means you should implement some wonderful Diwali decoration ideas into your home.

Let's start here with some amazing ideas-

Rangoli for Diwali

Rangolis are patterns made of powdered colors. There are many rangoli designs out there that you can Google, and also, there are booklets for beginners. These rangolis can be made with many materials colored sawdust, chalk, or the rangoli colors available in the market.

There are several props available, too, in which you need to fill up the color, and your design will be ready. Drawing it in the courtyard always catches attention; draw rangoli in the Puja room, the hall, and terrace. Simple designs like Swastik and feet of Goddess Laxmi are always considered auspicious.

Diyas, Candles, and Lamps

Diwali arrives on the night of Amavasya. Thus it is a practice to light up the whole house to keep any negativity at bay. Let there be light, lamps, diyas, fairy lights, or whatever you find attractive to illuminate the place.

Decorate every corner and space with aromatic candles or something unique. You can also try DIY ideas such as box lights. Make the boxes using colorful papers, and pack each light bulb in one box. Paper cup light is another trend that will look mesmerizing. Buy colorful paper cups of one pattern and hang each light bulb per paper cup.

Wine bottles bring another fabulous idea for lighting. All you have to do is insert tiny light bulbs inside them, hang them to the ceiling, and light them up. Or you can also cut the base and insert big halogen bulbs for a big illuminating presentation. Different corners of the home can be adorned differently!

Make it Bloom with Flowers

Flowers can be another great arrangement to make your Diwali décor charming. You can even make rangoli designs using flowers and light up diyas or lamps around it. Craft a big flower-like design on the entrance and place diyas all around it.

You can also make garlands and hang them on each door. Take them through the stairs to the floor along with strings of light to keep it magnificent at night. Next, you can arrange big bowls, pour some water, and drop the flowers into it. Light it up by placing tealight or floating candles, and it would be awe-inspiring.

Hanging Paper Diyas

You can choose one to two colorful papers and make a Diya-like design. Tie them together with a thread and hang it by a wall or anywhere specifically. Hanging Diyas made out of paper would be an economical and beautiful looking edition for Diwali. To make a more attractive design, add a flame too while cutting the paper.

DIY Lampshades

The next DIY thing is lampshades. By using some colorful papers, you can make these shades in which you can place lamps then. For this, you would need to cut the paper into rectangular pieces and fold it in a cylindrical design so it can stand easily. Carve some holes in the paper in flower patterns, and place Diya inside it. When you light up the Diyas, the papers' patterns will be visible, beautifying these folds very well.

Glass Lamps

This one is going to look fantabulous if you get the candles right. You would need some glasses like wine glasses. Fill them with water almost to the top. Take some artificial or real colorful flowers and place them in the water or at the bottom. You would need floating candles that you can buy or make at home so that they will float on the water, and now you need to light these Diyas and watch the show.

There are many more ideas that you can experiment with this Diwali. Bringing all these ideas together and setting up in the right place and manner will surely make your home look like paradise.
