As we know festival month is going in India, as diwali is the one of biggest brightest and most joyful festival of India, in which Line the diyas outside the door, Sweep the dust from every corner, decorate house with lights and flowers. Yesterday went to Diwali mela in my small town to buy some diwali stuff,there was huge variety of hand-made items like decorated painted diyas, wall hanging, tassels, customised bangles, some jewellery shops, traditional wear shop
As today was karwa chauth festival, so i had very limited time to visit Diwali exhibition, because this exhibition come once a year, for a long time i was looking forward to see what new to this season, at any cost I want to visit there, anyhow i managed it, finally 'm here at Diwali exhibition. The Exhibition was super amazing i would like to share my experience with you all,will show you hand made diwali decoration items and many more items, i hope you all like it.
Shubh Labh" is a Hindi phrase which means "good profit" or "auspicious gain". The word "Shubh" means good or auspicious, and "Labh" means profit or gain. During Diwali we put shubh labh one the main entrance of house, in our temples, shops and offices or what business we are involved in, to attract the luck and prosperity to auspicious day, buying it in my checklist list, so bought two pairs of Shubh Labh, one for my house and another for my shop.
Have you ever seen shubh lambh in the entrance door of any Indian house in your city?
Which handicrafts you like the most?
There are some wall hanging for home decoration, the shop lady told me that she buys the raw materials like pop-pop, beautiful laces, pearls, bits from wholesale markets and made it by her own. These hanging looks so beautiful and elegant.Every wall hanging is beautiful and unique in design but the first one i liked the most and buy it which cost me around 400 rupees($4.80) per pair, i had not done any bargain with the lady because she really work hard to make these beautiful designs.
These are decorated Candle Diyas(lamp) stand and Roli n chawal platter for gifting to your friends and family or keep it during Puja(worship)time. Diyas represent the triumph of light over dark, good over evil, Diyas play an important role in diwali, so i buy four of candle diyas for my house.
Metal Home Decor Items For Diwali
The another shop of metal home decors, i like it most, There was huge varieties of home decoration items especially for diwali, but the items were bit pricy, it didn't purchased anything from here, but they collections were fabulous.
Diya standa specially for diwali, quality was superb, i wanted to buy somethings items that i can afford but due to shortage of time and shop was over crowded, so doesn't bought anything.
I want to buy this metal pair ganesh and laxmi diyas,what i like about it is when you lightup candle diya then shadow of lord ganesha and goddess Laxmi will refect on the wall, but 'm in hurry and cost was high that why didn't bought it.
If you had to buy any one of diya stand then which one will you go for??
Artificial Jewellery shop
There was artificial jewellery shop too, my aunt wanted to purchase from it so we went there, click some pictures...
As next day was karwa chauth festival in india in which married women fast to pray for the long lives of their husbands and prosperity. Women break their fast on Karwa Chauth by first looking at the moon by sieve, and then their husbands help them drink water and eat the first morsel of food. Indian women's are crazy to get ready on karwa chauth, that the reason shop was crowded with ladies.
I like this trending celebrity mangalsutra, actually mangalsutra is only for married women,as 'm unmarried i didn't buy it.
**The whole atmosphere of the fair was very cheerful and exciting. Everybody was so cheerful, buzy jn shopping, some of them went towards the food stalls(i didn't went due ti shortage if time), and some went straight to the stalls like me 😜 traditional garments , jewellery, and other fun accessories. In this fair, most attractive stall i liked the most is stalls of handicrafts.
Visiting a diwali fair is a wonderful and joyful experience. It brings happiness and leaves us with beautiful memories and with shopping bags of diwali.
Thankyou 🙏🏻🇮🇳
