    Here are my Dasara dolls display pics. My first time ever sharing pics online, hope you like them. I painted purple diyas to match purple color scheme for the arrangement and did some rangolis as well. I will upload those pics separately. As for the decorations, I taped purple paper on the fire place mantle and stuck stars and scroll designs on them. I really enjoy working on Dasara dolls display each year.

    Hi All,

    This is my first golu. We never had a tradition of arranging golu in our family. I was inspired by lot of ladies in Indus ladies and planned to start golu this year.

    I am not entering the competion. Just wanted to share the golu pictures with you for your feedback. Mine is a simple one as I could hardly find any time for decorations amidst of 2 kids and hectic schedule in IT industry.

    To start with I made a marriage set with the fancy dolls. Dressed them with various traditional wears of India. Also made Thiruvannamalai girivalam set with clay and artificial plants.All the other dolls were purchased at Kuralagam and Mylapore.

    Thanks to my husband who arranged the padi with carton boxes overnight, Mother in law who helped me with puja procedures and neivedyam receipes and above all all ILites who came with a bunch of tips who made my first Golu memorable

    Thanks
    Nala
