While it's true that the way we celebrate Aidilfitri now isn't how it used to be, we can take comfort in knowing that we can still enjoy those intimate and joyful moments with our family and friends, as we can find happiness in the little things.

From buying brand new baju raya to stocking up on kuih raya to feast on after Ramadan, it truly is exciting to get into the Raya spirit. And, if you've been planning to do a little decorating around the home, now is the best time to do so! 

Wanna get your home ready for Raya? Jom, we'll share some tips so you can start decorating:

1. Adding all kinds of plants go a long way in making your home greener and livelier

Seeing as the Raya colour palette normally consists of different shades of green, indoor potted plants are perfect for the occasion. From mini succulents on the windowsill to tropical plants such as monstera around the corners of your home, you and your family will feel calm and relaxed with the serene surroundings. 

If you prefer a splash of colour, there's no reason why you can't add your favourite flowers to your home as well! 

Pro-tip: For smaller living spaces, opt for plants that hang from the wall or ceiling.

2. Adorning colourful lights will get you in the festive mood, and you can even re-use them for the following years!

While the flashy red, blue, yellow, and green lights are what you usually see during Raya, you can also go with good ol' fairy lights to adorn on your doorframes, or even against a plain wall.

Or, if you wanna go all out, you can get yourself those ketupat or moon and star lights to string around your home. You'll even be able to take cute Raya OOTDs from the comfort of home with these pretty lights. :D

Pro tip: If you prefer a classy look, make sure the lights match with the overall theme of your Raya decor.

3. If you're looking to replace your old furniture, opt for trendy pieces for a more premium feel this Raya

There's no doubt that our furniture makes up the bulk of our homes, and it plays a major role in the overall look and feel of it all. When choosing the most suitable furniture such as sofas and dining sets, be sure to prioritise quality as well as comfort. 

Since everyone has their own preferred style, you'll need to discover what kind of furniture you would like to feature in your home. And, keep in mind that investing in new furniture will give your home a more modern feel. Now, you can finally throw out that old furniture that's been collecting dust.

Pro tip: When looking for new sofa sets or recliners, go for those made with genuine leather, as these tend to last longer and are more durable.
