New Delhi: Today you will be seeing the celebration of Krishna Janmotsav in every home and temple. This festival is celebrated every year on the Ashtami date of Krishna Paksha of Bhadrapada month. On this day, preparations for Janmotsav are made at many places, as if it is a child's birthday in the house itself.

This day is very special, so its preparation starts much earlier. But, sometimes some things are planned suddenly, like if you suddenly want to prepare a different flower cradle for your Laddu Gopal, then this article is for you. Here we will tell you the easiest method to prepare a cradle of real flowers.

• Materials to make a cradle with the help of flowers
• Fresh flowers (marigold, rose, tuberose, or whatever is available)
• Small box or bowl of strong wood/plastic
• Thin iron wire
• Needle and thread
• Chunari or net cloth
• Cotton or small mattress (for Laddu Gopal to sit)
• Rope, dupatta or string for hanging
• Beads, lace, lights for decoration (optional)
• Method of making

To prepare the cradle, first of all you have to prepare the base of the cradle. For that, take a strong basket. Now if you want to make a handle on the top of your cradle, then fit the wire in the basket in such a way that you can lift it easily. To fit the wire properly, bend it from both sides, so that when you decorate it, it does not look strange.

After preparing the mold, it is time to decorate it with flowers, so for that, first of all make a garland of flowers. This garland can be of rose as well as marigold flowers. After making the garland, wrap or stick the flower garland around the cradle.
