Coloring Tips
When coloring your Diya lamps, think about how real lamps glow! You can use warm colors like yellows, oranges, and reds for the flame and the light radiating from it. The lamps themselves can be any color you like – traditional Diyas are often made of terracotta clay, so earthy browns and oranges are a good choice, but feel free to get creative! Perhaps some lamps are painted in bright blues, greens, or purples. Don’t be afraid to add glitter glue or metallic crayons to make the glow extra special and shiny. Remember, there's no right or wrong way to color; just let your imagination shine as brightly as a Diya lamp!
