Marble is a symbol of traditionalism and prosperity. They fill your home with joyful spiritual energy. It is also a durable material. It gives your space a luxurious tint.
Let’s begin the home décor planning from the entrance to the small corners.
Ideas to decorate the home for Diwali
1. Lighting the Ambience
Diwali, as you know, is the festival of lights. Your home glows with the beauty of diya lights. Now imagine how the look of your windows, entrance, and balcony will change when you light them with marble lotus diyas.
Marble will add grandeur and serenity to your space. After you’re done with lightning, focus on the pooja room.
Diwali lightning is not limited to the shine of diyas. You can add LED strips, glass bottle lights and flower torans. Hang them on your outdoor wall, covering the entire length.
2. Pooja Room Décor – Temple
Indian festivals are only completed after a pooja/havan. You should pay special attention to decorating your pooja room. That's the place where Goddess Laxmi will shower her blessings on you.
So, how about bringing the allure of an artistic marble sculptor for the great goddess?
Diwali also symbolises the return of lord Rama. This Diwali also bring Shree Ram Bhagwan to your home. Decorate the temple with beautiful fairy lights. They could be the same colour or different, both will attractively contrast with the white temple.
Imagine how soothing it’ll be to perform pooja, sitting in front of a beautifully lit white marble temple.
White marble temples reflect the pure vibes of Hindu temples. So, this Diwali, bring home an artistic sculptor with intricate traditional designs.
After you’ve settled your deity in the marble temple, plan your décor style. You can place a marble lotus diya in front of the mandir steps.
The best combination of festive décor items for your deity that’ll also match your marble temple will be a marble pooja thali and an agarbatti holder. You can drape your idol with a marigold and rose garland.
3. Doorstep Charm – Laxmi Footprint
Each year, you bring stickers of the Laxmi footprint. You stick them in the middle of your entrance and stairs. But soon you forget to remove them. You don’t even care who places footwear on them or walks over them.
Laxmi's footprints or charan paduka are auspicious symbols. They signify the presence of Goddess Laxmi. They're known to bring good fortune.
According to the Hindu culture, walking over such auspicious symbols means disrespecting them. Avoid such instances by replacing the stickers with a marble Laxmi footprint. Using white marble for sticker footprints will enhance the sanctity of the space.
When your guests observe a marble footprint, they'll definitely be attracted to it. They’ll respect them and will ensure they don’t step on it.
You'll feel for yourself that this small change of décor item will add a unique festive charm to your place.
4. Diwali Special Entrance – Your Creative Zone
The most fun time of Diwali, especially for girls, is rangoli. Different colours, patterns, and beautiful designs. Rangoli is something that first attracts anyone's attention. It's where your neighbours place their diyas. It’s considered auspicious in Hindu tradition.
Rangoli keeps evil at bay. It brings positive energy and good luck. So search for vibrant and colourful rangoli designs of flowers or traditional patterns.
You can further elevate your rangoli design by placing some marble flower diyas on its borders. Or you can also place a marble flower T light holder in the centre. It’s less messy and still looks beautiful.
5. Living Room Grandeur
For your living room decoration, you can consider some unique festive décor items. For instance, you can hang some lanterns made of traditional paper by the living room entrance.
For your centre table, you could create a festive tray. This includes a marble tray having a mini idol surrounded by fresh flower petals. Then surround the outer border of the tray with diyas or candles. It will add a hint of warmth to your space.
You can also bring colourful velvet embroidered cushion covers. Add the last element to make your living room Diwali-ready – colourful draperies.
6. Dining Space
Now, Diwali festival means your mom will make 10 varieties of sweets and snacks. You’ll arrange many different namkeens and dry fruits for your guests. You plan to serve them in style. But wait!
Have you planned the décor of your dining space that could impress your guests?
Decorate your dining table with a cloth with festive colours like gold or red. You can place some festive table décor items on it to elevate its look. For example, a tea light holder and candles. These simple festive décor items will give your dining space an aesthetic charm.
7. Small corners matter
Decorating isn't limited to the main areas. Think of those little empty shelves and window edges. These small corners also matter.
These places are perfect to adorn with blooming flower rails. You can also enhance the look of these small corners with mini lights or candles.
