What better reason than a festival to revamp your already beautiful home? With Onam around the corner, we are sure you are wondering how to celebrate Onam at home. The answer to this is easy – good Sadya food and simple Onam decoration. Read on to turn your home Onam-ready in a blink!
Here are the top 5 home decoration ideas to celebrate festive spirit:
Light up!

Kerala theme decoration ideas for Onam are easier than they sound. All you need is some diyas or urlis. Place the diyas on every elevated piece of furniture like tables, TV units, corner tables etc. Additionally, you can fill the urlis with flowers and float diya or tealight candles on it. For the best effect, switch off all other regular lights. Achieve this look with our Regal Throne Urli and Duchess Of Blossom Tealight Candles.

The flower power:

Onam decoration is incomplete without flower art. Use petals of colorful flowers like marigolds to create Kerala’s traditional rangoli called Pookalam. If creativity is not your best trait, sew the flowers together to DIY Onam flower decoration and hang it on the door entrance. Even though ready-made flower garlands are available in the market, there is something special about handcrafted ones, isn’t it?
Bring a little culture onto your walls:
Want home décor items that look great on Onam but equally magnificent on their own? For this, you’ll need thematic art pieces, soft furnishings, cushion covers, table accents, etc. Something like our Kathakali Dance Of India Wall Plate will lend a traditional touch to your home both during and after the festival.

The best part about life is food! If you agree too, why exclude the iconic Sadya from Onam decoration ideas? Start with the laborious process of preparing all the 26 dishes. Our Kool Kerala Gloves will certainly add to the mood whilst making preps a whole lotta safer and efficient.
