Decorate With Flowers

Festivals are synonymous with fresh flowers. Hibiscus is considered Ganeshji's favourite flower. Make a garland of hibiscus and durvas (conch grass) for the idol. Also, decorate the pandal with flowers of your choice like marigolds, roses, lilies, tulips, and more. You can also buy attractive faux garlands or mala to accentuate the Pandal!

Define It With Impressive Lights

It is the lights that add focus and attention to the festive decor. Accentuate your home pandal with attractive lights like decorative string lights. Add it behind the Ganesh Idol and tie it alongside the decorative backdrop prepared for the Bappa! Select the lights with different modes and colours that allow you to feature a pleasant mood inside your home!

Light Diyas and Candles

Apart from the artificial lights, the Ganesh pandal decoration is incomplete without beautiful diyas. Buy beautiful handmade diyas (preferably prepared by the underprivileged to bring happiness in their life during festive times) in attractive colours, and shapes and place them beside the Ganesh Idol. You can also add attractive fragrance candles to keep the surroundings smelling wonderful and attractive!

Make Beautiful Rangoli Designs

Rangoli is considered an auspicious design for all Hindu festivals and celebrations. It is sort of imperative to create beautiful rangoli around the home pandal or asan (seating) where the Bappa is placed. Fill the white rangoli design with attractive colours and infuse a sense of attraction and attraction with the same. Also, don't forget to create a rangoli at your front door too. It adds that welcoming and happy vibe!

Add Lovely Fragrances

With Ganeshji arriving at your space, it is mandatory to keep the interiors smelling fabulous. Make sure to light incense sticks, and dhoop sticks, ittars (traditional perfume) near the deity idol! The fragrance of fresh flowers added as garlands or bunched up in a vase is also helpful in making your space smell divine, spiritual, and heavenly!
