Budget Tips for Jazzy Home Decor this Eid!
Whenever any special occasion rolls around, we always worry about if there is any way that we can change up our home decor and make it exciting. However, the bigger challenge is maintaining a set budget while also beautifying your home as you wish. Today’s blog will look at how you can rearrange your home decor for Eid within your suitable budget.
Timeless elements:
Eid is an occasion that comes twice every year–and there are some nostalgic yet timeless pieces that we can keep for decorating the home at this time. Vibrant Bangladeshi tapestries made of Nakshi Kantha, handicrafts made from brass or wood (like an ornate brass fruit bowl, or bamboo runners for the dining table) can spruce up your home instantly. Look for stores with wholesale options to save on the cash.
Personalized touches:
If you enjoy DIY and crafts, then you can make your banners, lanterns or other decorative pieces (like paper doilies) to add your own unique touches to your home. If you have children in your family, you can engage them in a fun activity to create these DIY elements.
Splashes of Nature:
If you are an outdoorsy person and enjoy greenery here & there, then you can use seasonal landscaping to give an ordinary space an extraordinary feel. Small branches cut off from a Krishnochura or Bougainvillea plant can be used as the centrepiece at the dining table when entertaining guests. Similarly, marigolds or other seasonal flowers can be woven into garlands to decorate the entryway, as well as rooms where you intend to take photos in–brightening up each space.
Illuminating festivities:
Lighting up your home is a simple trick that can give it an elevated look & feel almost immediately. Look for table/ hanging lanterns made of porcelain, bamboo, wood or clay. Put candles inside them, or small fairy lights with a warm glow. Either way, this will give your home a cozy yet classy feel that will be unparalleled.
Friendly colors:
Bold greens & golds, rich maroons, plums and burgundies, or jewel tones–all these colors reflect prosperity and help create the perfect ambiance for hosting an intimate dinner party this Eid. Choose curtains, bedding, cushion covers in contrasting shades from these to stand out from the typical, mundane crowd.
Taking care to pick and choose items that reflect your personality and are classics in their own right can go miles in helping you decorate your home for Eid (or any other major occasion) while sticking to a solid budget. If you pick and choose which room to decorate, then select which items you want to add on; the task will become simpler–also allowing you to fit within said budget. Go forth and decorate, for now, the world is your oyster!
