Bring Home The Vibe Of Dahi Handi Competitions For Your Makhan Chor

Some people may not be a fan of the outdoors dahi handi competitions. So, we thought of giving you ideas to incorporate the dahi handi theme in your Janmashtami home decor. After all, it is the best treat you could give to your baby Krishna on his birthday.

You can simply decorate the earthen pot with flowers or do some kolam around it for an artistic look. Hang them on either side of your pooja room. You can also arrange a small gathering with your kids to make your kids break the handi as a symbolic celebration. Fill the earthen pot with sweets instead of real buttermilk if you want to avoid any mess in your home.

Decorate A Simple Janmashtami Jhanki To Create The Vibe Of Vrindavan At Home

The purpose of a Janmashtami jhanki is to create a theme that depicts Lord Krishna’s childhood, Raas Leela and other historical events of Lord Krishna’s life. You can incorporate them in your simple Janmashtami home decor, just as shown in the image. A vine on the wall of a vertical garden, a Madhubani painting, some potted plants all around may help you create the vibe of Vrindavan at your home. Decorate the space with garlands and place a tulsi pot in the centre. You can also add some bells, colourful drapes and oil lamps to amp up the space. Place a carpet and some cushions on the floor for your visitors to sit and offer their prayers.
