Posters and greeting images for Holika Dahan, the bonfire lit on the full-moon night before Holi, which marks the victory of Prahlad's devotion over Holika. Each carries the name of the night in clear letters: over a pyre under a full moon, over a puja thali with a diya, roli, rice and a coconut, or over a tall flame with a small lotus untouched in its heart. Type a different detail, such as a moon.

Frequently asked questions

When is Holika Dahan?
It falls on the full-moon night before Holi, so the date changes each year with the lunar calendar.
What does the puja poster show?
A puja thali with a diya, roli, rice, a coconut and a coil of white thread, set before the unlit pyre.
What is the difference between the three styles?
Flat flame is bold shapes on deep blue, folk print is a hand-printed poster with a paisley border, and night glow is painted embers with a pale moon.

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.
