This time of the year is my favorite with back to back festivals lines up. And, everytime I end up buying lot more gifts than needed. A little planning would definetly be helpful.
planning always helps me
This is such a structured way of approaching things. Loved it. I too need to plan my Durga puja looks ASAP.
It’s the most beautiful time of the year, so many meet and greets and yea lots of gifts to buy. I’m looking out at many personalized options this year
This idea is good but I am looking for Diwali Gifts those should be under 2000 Rs and something more usable in daily life, not from the kitchen. Let me know if you have some.
