How to Celebrate an Eco Friendly Diwali with Our Scented Candles

Diwali, the festival of lights, is a time of joy, tradition, and togetherness. But in recent years, concerns about environmental impact have encouraged families to rethink how they celebrate. Instead of noisy firecrackers and wasteful décor, many households are choosing a safe and eco friendly Diwali. With thoughtful choices, you can enjoy a radiant festival that honours tradition while also protecting the planet. This year, let’s celebrate an eco friendly Diwali with Amour By Anjali’s beautifully crafted scented candles - the perfect blend of elegance, sustainability, and festive spirit.

The Benefits of an Eco Friendly Diwali

Before diving into eco friendly Diwali ideas, let’s understand why it matters:

  • Reduces Pollution: By avoiding firecrackers, we cut down on harmful smoke and noise pollution, ensuring a cleaner atmosphere.

  • Saves Energy: Using candles and diyas instead of electric lights conserves electricity and creates a warmer, authentic festive vibe.

  • Supports Sustainability: Choosing eco friendly Diwali gifts and décor made with natural materials reduces waste.

  • Promotes Well-being: A quieter, greener and eco friendly Diwali ensures comfort for children, the elderly, and pets.

  • Strengthens Tradition: Eco-friendly celebrations connect us back to the essence of Diwali - purity, light, and positivity.

Eco Friendly Diwali Ideas for 2025

Here are some tips for eco friendly Diwali that can make your celebrations both beautiful and mindful:

1. Choose Sustainable Lighting

Replace strings of electric bulbs with clay diyas or handcrafted candles. Amour By Anjali’s Lotus Pond is a perfect example of eco friendly Diwali decoration - combining natural materials with fragrance to create an ambience that is festive yet sustainable.

2. Gift with Purpose

Move away from plastic-packed items and opt for eco friendly Diwali gifts like scented candles, wax sachets, or artisanal hampers. Amour By Anjali’s Festival Special Collection includes options such as Jai Shree Ram Wax Sachets, which not only look elegant but also make thoughtful, sustainable presents.

3. Go Natural with Rangoli

Instead of chemical colours, create rangolis with flowers, turmeric, rice flour, or even diyas and candles. Adding Amour by Anjali’s Lotus Urli Gift Set around a floral rangoli can bring fragrance and beauty to your design.

4. Say No to Firecrackers

One of the most impactful ways to have a safe and eco friendly Diwali is to avoid firecrackers. Instead, light up your home with candles that radiate warmth and serenity, while protecting the environment and your loved ones from pollution.

5. Reuse and Recycle Décor

For eco friendly Diwali decoration, avoid single-use plastic and invest in reusable items. Glass jar candles or wooden bowls from Amour By Anjali’s festive edit can be reused year after year, doubling as home décor beyond the festive season.
