No other flower spells Diwali festivities like marigolds and the best part is that they are available in plenty during the festive season. Use them in different avatars: as whole flowers, or as petals to form a bed, or string them up for a stunning toran. Place the flowers in a glass containers for an unconventional arrangement. How about having marigolds casually sprinkled over the center table? Throw in some gold/brass figurines, warm lighting and you have a conversation starter right here.
