What goes on a puja thali?

The samples show a diya, a bowl of roli, rice and sweets. Anything else a family adds is their own choice.

Which setting suits a competition?

The school contest setting shows a thali on a white table in bright daylight, the way a contest entry is usually photographed.

Can I ask for a different decoration?

Yes, type the design you want. A new design is a request and may look different from the sample.

Kundan is a traditional setting of gems in gold. Here it appears as small stones on a red thali.

Diwali thali designs: mirror work, flower petals, kundan stones

Diwali thali designs — a round steel thali edged with small mirrors and lace, a lit diya, a bowl of roli and a small heap of rice at the centre, set on a red silk cloth in a home puja corner on Diwali night, the diya flame and a few more diyas around giving a warm glow from camera-left, a dark-to-light balance with the thali bright and the corners in shadow

Decorated puja thalis for the Lakshmi Puja on Diwali night, made at home or for a school thali-decoration competition. The three designs are mirror-edged steel, marigold and rose petals, and a red thali set with kundan stones. Each is shown with the diya, roli, rice and sweets in place, in a home puja corner, on a white table for a contest, or on a rangoli. Type a different decoration and the same settings carry it.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
