Diwali celebration seems impossible without candles. Think of Diwali and you instantly think of beautiful flickering candles dancing to the tune of cool breeze at Diwali night.

Choose candles that add some sweet fragrance to the surroundings, making it possible for you to not only brighten your home but also create the perfect mood for the revelries.

Aside from fragrant candles, you can go for some beautiful floating candles too! These, when kept in a glass bowl filled with water, can wonderfully adorn any place. Add some rose petals to the bowl and create a fascinating charisma at your home.

Lights

Colourful LED lights are some of the sure shot ways to decorate your home or office when Diwali comes. Take a look out of your balcony and you will see stunning lights adorning the verandas, terraces, galleries and exteriors of many homes during Diwali.

Apart from adding a glamourous look and feel to any place, these also help to rev up any dull and dreary exterior with the option to change the pattern of these lights. So, pick the most beautiful LED lights from the local market and create a pleasing appearance at your home.

Flowers

There is no celebration in India that is complete without flowers, and Diwali is no exception! It’s that time of the year when fresh flowers

and garlands of rose, lily, and jasmine, are used to decorate your place and to bring a garden-fresh and fragrant charm to it.

You can decorate your doors or stair handles with these flowers, and can even use a string of lights which is skilfully decorated with flowers to enhance the exquisiteness of your home.
