Diwali Gifting
Diwali Gifting

Diwali is one of my favourite Indian festivals. Why, you ask? Think blingy lights, colourful decorations, yummy sweets and more importantly, tonnes and tonnes of gifts! It’s almost Diwali time and all that we are worried about right now is what gifts to buy for everyone. (Fear not Mummy, I’ve got this sorted out.) Team MissMalini has decided to put together a mix of Diwali gifting ideas for your family and friends.
