A dynamically divine Diwali!!!

With the year almost coming to a close, it’s time to celebrate! The excitement borne from the anticipation of many lively and flamboyant festivities is contagious. During Diwali, even more so!

Diwali is all about the senses. The magical appearance of diyas, diffusing warmth and light into not just our homes but our hearts as well. The unmistakable perfumes of marigolds and agarbattis wafting into our waiting noses. Rangolis delight our eyes with an explosion of vivid colours, in tandem with the spirals and swirls on our diyas, a delicate dance for our eyes.

It’s no surprise that Diwali should inspire creativity, then. The day that celebrates the victory of light over darkness unchains the light in all of us. This was the inspiration for this cushion cover - the coming together of different hues, to mimic the fireworks and sparklers and dramatic outfits that come on display on Diwali. Crochet is my way of contributing to the celebrations with shades of yellow, blue and purple - all woven together with love. Happy Diwali!
