Vakratunda Maha-Kaaya Surya-Kotti Samaprabha
Nirvighnam Kuru Me Deva Sarva-Kaaryeshu Sarvadaa ||

Meaning: Oh God with curved trunk, large body whose aura is like light of crores of sun, please make my entire work obstacle free, forever.

Millions today will celebrate the birthday of the most lovable God in the Hindu pantheon – Lord Ganesha.

Ganesh Chaturthi, in a sense ushers in a series of festivals spread out over the rest of the year.

Festivals inspire get-togethers, parties and revelry. And décor!

Read on for some inspiring, eclectic ideas on festive décor that you can incorporate to amp up your style quotient and charm your family and friends.

Gold accents evoke instant and authentic festive tones, especially in India, and this trio of tealight candle holders on a matte-finish dull gold table, offset by white flowers in a muted-green glass vase spells under-stated luxury.

An intricately finished Kashmiri woolen carpet, or a delicate Pashmina throw adds that ineffable touch of refinement.

Switch on an antique crystal table lamp on a side table to spread jeweled light around your living space.

Serve modaks in a rich red metal salver, making for a mouth-watering contrast and stand-out attention.

Our festivals are all about flowers. Marigolds, jasmine, roses, orchids – all add instant drama and gorgeousness to décor, not to mention heady aroma. String them up on the patio, bunch them in big vases, single them in stem vases, hang them up in high planters. The easiest, simplest, super-stylish method to fabulous festive décor. Floral is always fresh!

Marry contemporary and ethnic in your living room or entertainment space, with ethnic-inspired, festive cushion covers in rich colours and material against monochromatic sofas. Or vice-versa. Serve tea in fine porcelain on an antique, metal-embellished trunk of a centre-table.

Create soft and glowing mood-lighting clusters on consoles with tea-light votives and crystal candle stands, wrought-iron or metal latticework lamps.

Let’s end with the Entrance. Against a glamorous gold-stencilled wall, place a statement-making Indian piece (could be Ganesha, an Indian warrior, Buddha, Radha Krishna, Nataraja, Shakthi …)  that stands tall, surrounded by a border of fresh flowers, welcoming your visitors.
