Marigold Yellows and Vermillion Cushions...for Deepavali



The festivities,excitement and fun that awaited at all corners at our home this Deepavali. Marigold yellows for walls,the  vermillion cushions stitched at home,some lotuses, the  Tanjore paintings and the new tea light holders.As my little one is a year old,and running all around ,we had to compromise on the South Indian Oil lamps which usually gets lit on Deepavali.I am sure all of you had a great time..


marigold yellows and vermillion cushions
beautifully framed 

we framed a five rupees poster rangoli and kept it on the centre table along with flowers,some sparklers in a brass Nazhi







rangoli  posters used as placemats...what an idea:)-



 holy symbols on  pebbles(an inspired idea from Geninne)



  
magical light




then it was flowerpot time...these also got arranged on the centre table

Hope you all enjoyed glimpses of our Deepavali..May this year bring all the prosperity and life's blessings for all my dear and near friends.
