A week before Ganesh Chaturthi, living rooms across Maharashtra start rearranging furniture to make room for the makhar, the decorated setting where the idol will sit. A puja backdrop plays that role in smaller homes, giving the shrine a defined, festive frame.
Cloths come first. Red and yellow are customary colours for covering a chowki in many traditions, often with a zari or gota border, and a smaller square serves as an aasan beneath a murti. Backdrop panels range from simple fabric drapes to printed or embroidered hangings and stand-mounted frames for larger setups.
Pick a backdrop a little wider than the chowki so the edges do not show. Iron cloths before festivals, keep them clear of diya flames and wash them gently in cold water. Fold the puja backdrop with tissue between layers if it has zari work.
