Light it up

Diwali is a festival that is all about lights and bling. So always opt for something fun and playful to dazzle up your space. Add a twist to your regular wall lamp hanging with some funky lanterns in different shapes, sizes and colours. They add a traditional touch to your festive home décor. Create a soothing vibe by adding warm or yellow lights inside your lamp. This creates a perfect festive ambience.

Lighting is an important aspect of interior design as it enhances aesthetic appeal and creates the mood and ambience of a living space. It can make or break the ambience of a room. Hence proper lighting is an important element when decorating your homes. Other lighting elements that add to the beauty of your space are - diyas, fairy lights and candle holders.

Dress up your walls

Take your festive decor to the next level by adding a touch of quirkiness and vibrancy to your plain walls. Make one wall in the room stand out!

What we love about Diwali is that it’s all about colours! At Bharat floorings, we believe that each colour is essential in making or breaking the space, each colour adds value to the decor and brings out the uniqueness of any given space.

It’s good to mix two different colours when you wish for one area to impart a bold and fun vibe, while the other area to have a more muted look to create a perfect balance between whimsical and understated. You can achieve such a look by using a contrast of bright and neutral colours within the same space.

Go floral
