At Amaara Home, we present to you the perfect serveware and drinkware items for setting up your festive home and table and choosing a thoughtful Rakhi gift. Together, let’s turn this special occasion into more than just a festival—a sacred feeling of bonding between siblings.
As your family gathers together, this is the perfect opportunity to elevate your home for the upcoming celebrations. Let’s start with a quick guide to making your space guest-ready, luxurious and effortlessly elegant:
1. Start with the scent
We like to think of table setups as fragrance-first, as the scent has the potential to make a lasting first impression. A few drops of sandalwood or rose essential oil in a diffuser or jasmine or mogra-scented candles, decorated in our candle holders, can transform your space into a sacred space of love.
Our Hikari candle holder set of 3 features sophisticated candle holders inspired by the gentle, serene light of traditional Japanese lanterns. The sense of balance and serenity helps create a festive vibe for the grand celebrations.
2. Layer it with textures
While your dining table is perfectly layered with sweets and drinks, you cannot miss out on the table decor items. A bouquet of fresh mogras and marigolds adds a touch of sophistication, while small handwritten notes go a long way in making a lasting impression.
You can also consider brass thalis, table runners and tissue boxes paired with this Sakura Handpainted Tissue Box Cover, a perfect companion for your most thoughtfully curated table settings, inspired by the beauty of Japanese cherry blossoms.
3. Create a warm, Rakhi gifting nook
Raksha Bandhan is all about exchanging gifts, sweets, and love, so how about curating a special gifting hook. You can create a chic corner with aesthetically pleasing table décor items and festive gifts. Such as this small bowl by Amaara Home, which can be filled with chocolates, almonds and gift for sister.
Decorate the corner with marigolds, roses and fairylights for an aesthetic touch. Place designer serveware items filled with detox water or fresh fruit juice.
4. Add comfort with culture
Throw in a few cushions and throw blankets for a rich festive feel. Mix the colours such as navy blue, gold and cream. You can also place ottomans around the Rakhi gift corner for added comfort.
Place a brass urli filled with petals at the centre of the table for a historic feel. Wrap the chairs with brocade cloth for an added flair of festivity.
5. Serve with style
Whether you’re serving lemonade or laddoos, serve it with style. Make a statement as you serve these delicious delicacies on the tray. You can choose from a hand-painted butler tray or grazing trays to make a long-term impression.
