I wonder if I 'd call it a tray scape ... hmmm ... its quite like an instant magical touch ... well in this case ... instant Diwali Decor ...
A tray ... a few of your fav. things and flowers ... some greens ...lights ...
I was arranging the orchids in my silver tea pot ... the green glass looked nice with the silver ...along came some sand paper vine leaves ... and the tea light and candles and well ...
... a coffee table ... a console table ... your side unit ... a cozy nook ... and just about anywhere you decide ... I think you could try this arrangement ... complete with your diyas or candles ... I'm sure you too will feel the festive mood ...with some instant Diwali decor ...
If you liked this idea do share your thought with me ... would love to hear from you ... who knows two thoughts put together and we just may have another decor idea ... :)

Lovely.Besides lovely decor, u have such a knack for taking pictures.
Magical!!!
I am planning to put tea lights into even smaller "shot glasses" this time.
It looks beautiful. I'm definitely going to put together something like this. Do you think a touch of muted gold will do good?
Nice!! This kinda arrangement really comes into its own at night.
I love it, great idea!! Visit my blog for a Star Bucks Giveway!!
I love the way you accentuate the Greens with some the candles Rajee. Beautiful Snaps!
Wishing you n your Family a very Happy Navratri & a Joyous Festive Season ahead....
again girl you nailed it .. I love the whole look .. I like the tealight in the glass gives me some idea :)
Very nice Rajee... I wish some of creativity rubs on me too...I love your ideas...keep going
Gorgeous! Love how the lights reflect differently- and the candles on the tray and off. Like Urban Green's thought of muted gold, which would go. What about silver for more contrast?
Oh wow!!! Absolutely loved it.... I'm surely going to try this one .... using the tray... Thanks for sharing these lovely pics Rajee... I already feel like Diwali!!
Sigh! Rajee, you really have the magic touch! Lovely!
Your home is going to look so magical this Diwali and I look forward to seeing many posts with a whole lot of photos to feast on.
Just one question : will the heat of the tea-lights or candles affect the table and its polish, etc. ? Does it leave patchy rings?
Thanks for sharing these lovely ideas. The pictures are beautiful and reflects the magic of Diwali. I too am busy toying with ideas and its fun to see what we all can do together for this special time of the year.
Wow! All your diwali decor ideas and the pictures are gorgeous. Thanks for sharing!! I'm inspired to try some of these..for the first diwali celebration in our new home..

Hi Monika,
Love your idea ... another suggestion ... split the use... some for shots and rest for tea lights ... ;)
I do try to make the pictures interesting ... but I know I am an amateur at that art as yet... :)
Hi Urban Green,
You ask a lady who has gilded things galore ... hell! yes... it'll look jut fine ... and what better way to just do it and find out ... :)

Hi Sunita,
Hope I am home ... too many destinations to cover ... this year I am not sure where Diwali will see us ... ;)
As for the tea light on a polished or even a glass table ... votive holder always a better idea ... :)

Hey there Shruti,
Thanks for the award too ... ;)
its looks very nice, decor is very great
amazing how candles brighten an area.good work rajee
Rajee, I have those Arabic lamps, hanging all over my garden during Diwali, I put tea lights in Kawa glasses with a bit of water in the bottom (to spread the heat), and decorated a center table - seating 20 people with candles all over the place. Spray the garden with camphor and eucalytus oil mixed in water (for mosquitos). This was last year, I have to do something new this year.
Health Fitness Care,
Thank you for leaving me your comments ... appreciate it ... :)
