This is the corner of my dining area..I always feel corners are neglected as I guess they are difficult to decorate..Lot of trail and permutations of different decorations usually goes in the corner decor before I finalize one.. For now I am happy with this corner's decor!!
Since I shifted here only last month..So my plants are still very small..I think the silver vine will look pretty when it grows more!! This ornamental ganesha is a gift from a friend and also the carved wooden elephant.. The ladies and the lotus candles are from Zürich.
I have collected Indian themed items from all over the world..Another one I love to collect is beach themed items..The plate is from Venice, Italy. The white lotus is a battery operated light which toggles between different colors!!
Another centerpiece reusing halloween's pumpkins..With their scary faces turned inside I kept few around a short vase with chrysanthemums in it..
Placed it with earthen and shell candles which I am planning to burn only on the main day of Diwali which is tomorrow!!
How about a game of Tic Tac Toe with candles.. Using round and square candles with skewers in the middle!!! Another corner glass table .. looks prettier than in picture here!!
Festivals are about giving gifts and presents.. l!! It is something I made with my hands with love just for you:) I hope you will like it!!

I hope that Diwali celebration is wonderful. You've done a lovely job with your centerpieces. I really like the golden yellow of the mums surrounded by the pops of turquoise and green...and the tic tac toe board in candles....great idea! Thank you for sharing your charming designs and for stopping by my post. Cherry Kay

Thanks for sharing!
Rich in color and texture are the qualities of Indian centerpieces that I like. They give these rooms a palatial feel.
