The festival of light, Diwali is almost here! I'm sure everyone celebrating must be busy with the preparations and decorating their homes.
If you follow us on Facebook or Instagram, you might already know that we have relocated to Seattle and have been busy settling in this beautiful emerald city.

If you're here or have been to Seattle, I would love to get your recommendation on places to visit in the comments below.
We love decorating our home on festivals with handmade crafts. Last year, we made paper leaf garland and this year we made this adorable Diwali kalash garland. Kalash is a metal pot with a large base and small mouth used commonly in Hindu rituals.
