We suggest placing the cutouts on the back of the idol, which will give it a nice good look. If you can find some artificial peak feathers, use them too! And you can play more with the blue, green and golden colours! Use the same colours for the rangoli or get the same colour flowers! It will be a great theme!

Time for some fun with glitters. If you want to add a spark to your Ganesh Chaturthi decoration at home, add glitters to your plan.

Once done, dust the glitter powder and wait for it to stick. You can throw a little bit of glitter on the rangoli as well. Now just sit back and watch your design sparkle throughout the festival!

Lights can never go wrong with Ganpati decoration at home. In fact, proper lights can brighten up everything. Go simple and hang tuni lights on the wall behind the idol.
