Instead of celebrating Diwali traditionally, the youngsters have decided to decorate their homes with a sparkling touch of creativity.
Since, social media has become a part of youths’ life, the city youngsters are going tech-savvy this festive season.
Interestingly, they have joined the DIY (Do-it-Yourself) groups on whatsapp and facebook wherein everyday a new DIY idea is explored. It is just not limited to sharing pictures, but many of them are fond of sharing their videos with each other about their DIY ideas.
Besides, few pages on facebook are dedicatedly working on spreading the ideas for celebrating their DIY diwali. Raksha Agarwal, who works in a playschool shares, “I am making DIY lanterns at home. These are the Chinese shaped lanterns which are made with the help of a balloon and a rope. After this I will decorate my lanterns with the sall Christmas lights to give it a final look.”
Another lantern idea shared by Raksha was to create a lantern out of an old glass jar.
On the other hand, Rachna Yadav, a college student said that she will be making an eco-friendly rangoli at her home. “This is not a flower rangoli, but it is the rangoli which will be made out of pearls, gems, sequins and the coloured sand.”
The youngsters are leaving no stone unturned to go innovative this Diwali.
