1. Sick of searching around gift and sweet shops asking the salesmen -what to buy for your family and close friends, and still getting stuck with the same year-old problem of what to buy this Diwali? Diwali is that joyous time of the year where we decorate our abodes, wear brand new clothes, go overboard with buying delectable sweet, well not just for gifts, but to engorge on them ourselves too. It is the festival which is highly anticipated all year round. However, the sole dilemma which brings forth so many tiring and frustrating questions during this festival – What should be gifted to our special friends as well as family members? ‘I don’t want to buy the regular diwali gift hamper from the local store’ – but still we end up with it due to the difficulty and time involved in locating something personal and interesting So, we decided to come up with a curated list which we’re sure your recipient will be excited to receive. Here we go: 1. Diwali Décor – Diwali Lights/ Decoration/ Diyas: Why not gift someone and save your friends & family the time a bundle of Diwali Home Décor items to spruce up their home. Some gorgeous brass hanging diyas, LED thalis & lights, candles, Diwali lanterns, idols, aarti books and so much more. Sit from the comfort of your home, click here, order in advance and be free from last minute worries of figuring out the best gift option. Make an impact now.

2. 2. Religious and spiritual items: If you want to opt for the conventional form of gifting, go for gifts that are based on spiritual and religious factors. One of the most sought-after options for this is gifting idols of deities. Present Lord Krishna, Durga, Buddha, Rama, Lord Ganesha, Vishnu or laxmi ganesh murti as per their relevance to the festival of lights. 3. DIY items: A personal favorite! This category can range from making purposeful and brand-new things from scratch. Engage your children, tap into their creativeness and let them experience the process of creation by having them create something. There are myriad options of DIY tea pots, bowls, lamp shades, pen holders etc. which can be crafted at home. Wrap these gifts up, involve yourself with the children and create! 4. Eco-friendly options: Earthen pots and idols: Let’s not diminish the drive towards stopping pollution. We all face and experience it every day and needless to say, more so on Diwali. Help the local craftsman near your home and purchase some earther pots or a clay ganesha idol? Diwali, after all should always be about bringing a smile on everyone’s face and not just your family and loved ones. Tip: You can bring them home and paint them for further embellishment. An earthen pot releases a smell that many people adore. Imagine how well it will turn out to be, if you decorate it with unique items. Adding chocolates inside will be like cherries on the cake for the little ones. 5. Homemade sweets/ chocolates: Chocolates/ our local Indian delicacies (simply irresistible!). Unfortunately, the best local sweet shops are located out of the vibrant and quirky lanes of Chandni Chowk. But you might find some online, such as Bansal Sweets etc. Thinking about making some at home. Take the help of some online recipes and tutorials. It does take some time, but there’s nothing better than making these yourself, learning something new and spreading the smiles all around. These can be packed in jars and enchanting boxes for gifting to your loved ones.

3. 6. The go-to Home décor items: If you are seeking to present the sparkle of Diwali, you can present home décor items to your near and dear ones. Quirky wine stoppers, ornate platters, creative trays for serving the appetizers or funky jars for storing nuts come under this category. You can also vow your closed ones with candle holders, Himalayan salt lamps or pretty bird cages! 7. Aroma diffusers and essential oils: Nothing could be more charming than an abode saturated with jasmine and lavender whiffs in the festival season. Take things to the other side this year by gifting a set of aroma diffusers or essential oils(Visit: https://www.mypoojabox.in/collections/aroma-diffuser). Gifting an aroma lamp is also great if its base has much potentiality to spread the aroma for extended hours and hold the water. 8. Candied fruits: These are a wholesome and exciting gift option for your family and friends. You just need a wire rack, fruits and sugar syrup. For this, heat up a pan and soak the chopped variety of fruits in the sugar syrup. Until the fruits get translucent, you can let them remain there.
