Set up a calm Vijayadashami puja corner with one clean cloth, an uncluttered tray and the items your family actually uses. Separate decoration from the working space needed for offerings and seated participants. Reusing a familiar shelf or table can make a small home feel welcoming without buying a new altar.

- 4Add a small flower arrangement at the side.

- 6Ask the person leading the puja to check the arrangement before guests arrive. Remove decorative items that make the ritual tray difficult to reach.
Helpful tips 💡
- Separate decorative paper and fabric from any supervised ritual lamp.
