Other ideas!

• Try an easy rangoli design at the entrance of your house. Traditionally, rice flour is used but this attracts tiny insects so instead, make yours with chalk powder or lime stone powder.
• Want something quick yet just as impressive? Go with fairy lights that create a pretty environment. Best part, they can be removed after the celebration and reused for the next!
• Deepavali won’t be complete without the soothing glow of candles. Place a few outside in your garden (if you have one) or on the balcony. Or go with tealights to prevent any accidents.
