From your mandir to your home: six places for a flameless diya
Because there is no flame, oil or heat, a Diara can go places a traditional diya never could.
Pooja room
Flank the mandir with a pair of Large diyas for a steady evening glow that does not need relighting.
Rangoli
Set Small diyas around the edge of your rangoli. Moving Flame catches the eye here.
Living room
A Jashn centerpiece on the coffee table gives the whole room a warm centre.
Dining table
Run a line of Breathing Flame diyas down the runner. Nothing to knock over, nothing to drip.
Entryway
Welcome guests with a diya on each side of the door, indoors or in a covered porch.
Windowsill
The classic Diwali window, finally safe next to the curtains.
