A house becomes a home in small ways: the brass-coloured glow of a lamp in the corner, a bowl of floating marigolds by the door, a painted panel above the sofa. Home decor and lighting is about those everyday touches as much as about Diwali.
Some pieces work with water and flowers. The urli, a wide shallow bowl from South Indian homes, holds floating petals and candles at an entrance, while vases carry rajnigandha stems or a trailing money plant. Decorative objects, such as figurines, bowls and small sculptures, give a shelf or console table a point of interest.
Walls and light complete the room. Wall decor ranges from framed folk art to metal and wooden hangings, and is easiest to plan around the largest empty wall. Lanterns and decorative lamps add warm, low light for balconies, terraces and quiet corners, and many families bring them out in strings during the festive season.
Choosing home decor and lighting is mostly about scale. A small flat looks calmer with a few larger pieces than with many small ones.
Dust metal pieces weekly and keep paper and fabric lamps clear of hot bulbs and open flames.
