Choosing the right colour palette
The transition from Diwali to December can be tricky, as the two festivities bring distinct styles to your home decor. While Diwali thrives on warm tones, gold accents, and vibrant colors, Christmas leans toward a palette of whites, greens, and reds. However, with a little creativity, you can blend these contrasting aesthetics seamlessly for a festive look that carries the best of both celebrations! Here are some colours that will hold good throughout the year.
- Warm White: Classic and cozy. Seamlessly blends with any style.
- Silver: Sleek and modern, ideal for a contemporary setup.
- Multicolor: Fun and festive, great for homes with kids or a playful holiday theme - no matter the season!
