A beautiful Diwali..

..is what Mr. Blog and I wish

for all our dear readers

Hope you have a delightful festive week!

This Diwali, my gift for Mr. Blog is the new logo (coming up later this week), and my gift for you is some handpicked inspiration for a festive tablescape ~ distinct, colorful Diwali table settings, as beautiful as the festival!

Tea lights look ethereal, whether in simple glassware or blingy tea light holders

Moroccan/metal lanterns for Diwali tablescape

Peacock feathers and motifs add a distinct Indian flavour

Time to take out your heirloom brass / kansa glasses and put them to good use!

Lotus, pearls, lace, rich textiles...add a touch of luxury to your table

Those colored wine glasses you picked up on a whim? Contrast them with bright flowers and create a vibrant setting for the family lunch

Shined to perfection silverware, kansa thalis and elaborate dinnerware are all time favorites

Next week I'll share with you ek jhalak (a glimpse) of Diwali decor from my home. In the meantime, before you run off to do last minute prep for the festival, do make sure that you have entered the Skin Apotheke giveaway. Winners to be announced on Oct 27th now. 
You have two more days!
