I would like to share the little bit I know. For rangoli what I normally do is choose a simple pattern and if outdoors make arrangments with either flowers or if indoors make arrangments with legumes and pulses raw form. jus simple but elegant and eye catching. For diyas you could just light small candles like tea candles place it in votive holders so will hold longer. I place the white lunch bag and place tea light candle inside the bag which is filled with little sand. this lasts atleast for a few hours. If placed alongside driveway looks very nice.

Hi

Thanks for the reply
your rangoli is awesome.

I made some decoration with floating candles and flowers in a bowl on my center table.

Thanks & Regards
Jaishree
