<h2 id="home">Home Decoration Ideas on Diwali</h2>
<p>&ldquo;Home is where the heart is.&rdquo; On Diwali, we say, &ldquo;Home is where the Diwali celebration is.&rdquo; No home goes undecorated on Diwali, which is this festival&rsquo;s charm. As a millennial, you know the enchanting magic of rangolis and diyas. Do you remember how crazy you were about the rangoli competition in your colony? Seed that spirit inside your kid and rejuvenate a new charm in them.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Here are some fantastic home decoration ideas for you:</p>
<h3>Hula-hoop Chandelier&nbsp;</h3>

<p>String lights have their own magic. Tie these little pieces of sparkling lights with the hula-hoop, and boom! The magic happens. You can create splendid views with these lights; the best thing about them is that you can use them both outside and inside your house.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Instil your little one&rsquo;s soul with warmth and the pure beauty of art. Glass jars or spare bottles are usually considered good for nothing. But what&rsquo;s not possible with art? Insert tiny fairy lights inside the pot and hang them from your window or on your balcony. Trust me, and they will add some charm beyond your imagination.&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Colourful Candles with Flowers</h3>

<p>Diwali decoration ideas have changed over the years. With a drastic change in human civilisation, people&rsquo;s taste in decoration has taken a new direction. Nowadays, they are up for giving their eyes a soothing and comforting view rather than making it unnecessarily gorgeous. Colourful candles and flowers would be a perfect match for creating placidity that will soothe your eyes.&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Festive Vibe Wallpapers</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img src="https://cdn-cms.orchidsinternationalschool.com/media/festive-vibe-wallpapers.jpg" alt="Festive Vibe Wallpapers" width="700" height="342"></p>
<p>You may have started receiving multiple notifications from painting companies to paint your house before the festive season arrives. But, painting your entire home will not be cost-efficient. Try to capture the festive vibe with selected wallpapers. Wallpapers are cost-effective, and it does not require much time to fix as well. Choose a wallpaper that goes with your house decor. This Diwali, step out of the box and embrace a new decor idea.&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Ribbons &amp; Balloons</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img src="https://cdn-cms.orchidsinternationalschool.com/media/balloons.jpg" alt="Balloons" width="1024" height="500"></p>
<p>Don&rsquo;t you think we stereotype balloons only for birthday parties? Break the ritual and do something for the sake of the pure joy of your little one. Choose vibrant colour balloons like red and yellow and let them float in the air with the help of ribbons.&nbsp;</p>
<h2 id="what">What Special Dishes Are Prepared On Diwali</h2>
<p>Is any Indian festival ever complete without smacking food? Diwali is a festival where many people from different communities participate and share the joy of being together. Food complements that happiness. Dishes that take top positions on the Diwali food list include:</p>
<h3>Samosa&nbsp;</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><img src="https://cdn-cms.orchidsinternationalschool.com/media/samosa.jpg" alt="Samosa" width="900" height="439"></p>
<p>With that magical taste and an enticing smell, samosa takes the winner position on the Diwali snacks list. You can use oil at a significantly lower rate for health-conscious people. Samosas go perfectly well with chai or coffee. So, if you are having a small Diwali party, make it even more cheerful with the addition of chai and Samosa. You will never realise when your party becomes a place filled with fun and warmth.&nbsp;</p>
<h3>Aloo Bonda&nbsp;</h3>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
