interior design for mandir in home
welcome to reallife realhome today's video is about how to make a small mandir at home and how to organize it before starting the video i would like to say that in no way i am an expert in this area, so if i make any mistakes i apologize for it. its very difficult to find a mandir that meet your needs specially when you are living abroad you have very few options so what i did is that i bought a bookshelf from walmart and place adhesive decor paper inside it. i will be using this as my home mandir. on top of the shelf i have placed a shelf liner then i have also pasted aluminium foil on the interiors to protect it from diya lightning stains so this is how the basic structure looks like
as per my knowledge i have placed the mandir in the north east corner of the house so on the top shelf i have 2 boxes . in the big one i have all my prayer books like the ramayana, and the geeta. the next box contains clothes of the lord. on the next shelf i have placed all my murtis and pictures of god.i have decorated with pearl necklace i have placed my diya on a copper plate. always be very careful when you light a diya specially with wooden mandir and wooden floors. if you are not able to light a diya in the morning you can also do sandhya bati ( lighting diya in the evening) moving on to second shelf i have place here all my accessories required for pooja. i have used a diy organizer ( i have this video on my channel) in this organizer i have my mauli, bati, pooja mala , and incense i have placed a tissue liner beneath the ghee container
i have also used a shelf divider to use the vertical space properly. so that i can keep things both up and down the shelf.. on top i have kept my books and matchstick and bottom i have kept my other things like prashad , gangajal, etc. i have kept two rugs to sit on when i do pooja and have kept a small dustbin near as well so that the area does not get messy. and lastly i will show you how to make a mandir curtain i have taken two dining table runners and placed a twine after folding them from top. i will tie them at back and will use as curtains. so this is my mandir , i hope you like it.
