Designed primarily as a festive home décor project for adults, this kit is also simple enough for kids to participate in, making it a lovely activity to enjoy together as a family.

A Fresh Alternative to Wooden Jharokha Décor
Traditional jharokha decorations are often made from wood and are meant to be stored, maintained, and reused year after year.
This paper jharokha kit offers a lighter and more flexible alternative.
Create beautiful festive décor when you want it, enjoy it throughout your celebration, and change your decorating style from year to year without feeling committed to storing a permanent wooden piece.
The cardstock construction also makes it:
-
Lightweight and easy to display
-
Easy to move around your home
-
Simple to incorporate into seasonal decorating
-
Convenient for apartments or homes with limited storage
-
Fun to create as part of your Diwali preparation
