One of the easiest ways to infuse a healthy dose of ‘Indian-ness’ to your function is to include lots of colourful embellished fabrics. Fabrics in rich and bright hues like red, orange, blue, yellow and parrot green. Metallic prints and embroidery, bead, sequin and crystal work, zari work and opulent brocades all work well. Use these lush fabrics for drapes, table covers or runners, chair covers and more. You can also incorporate different sarees as a decorative element for a unique desi touch! Colourful or metallic hued cushions and diwans for floor seating also look great. Using typically Indian fabrics like bandhni and ones with batik prints, mirror work or ethnic block work looks very inviting. Warm up the space with brightly hued rugs and carpets.
