20 New Ideas to Dressup Little Krishna - Finding New Unique Ideas Year after Year

Krishna Janmashtami 2021 is soon approaching end of this month. Devotees are gearing up with many preparations to celebrate with family and dear ones.

One major task Indian mothers usually take up is dressing up every child as Lord Krishna and turning their home into Vrindavan in an attempt to welcome the Lord in his infant form.

Here are some new ideas you should consider to try this season. 

Cool Sunglasses Krishna 

To give a new twist to the traditional looking Krishna, Radha or for that matter even Yashoda Maiyya, why not try with sunglasses.

It adds more to the fun !

Real Jewelleries - Decked in Gold

Indians have a great taste for 22kt gold jewelries. The sheen and sparkling nature of the yellow metal brings immense brightness on the little divine face.

Dressing up in all gold accessories from head to toe is a grand theme to get decked during this season. 

Large Shiny Pearls

Lord Krishna and pearls have a special bond. It is believed that Krishna as a kid borrowed some pearls from his mother Yashoda and sowed them in the soil of Vrindavan. 

The yielding pearls were magically beautiful and bright.

Use all pearls accessories to deck your Little Krishna. 

Large God Krishna Turbans

The tiny bun decorated with pearls and peacock feather is the usual style followed for little babies' dress up as God Krishna.

Most toddlers are also comfortable with lightweight metal crowns embellished with stones.

However, not many try the Turban style with Krishna Dress.

It looks grand and the expanse of pleated decorations brings a great amount of radiance in the face.

It is not mandatory to dress up all bling or silky always when you prepare for Krishna fancy dress. Not always one needs to be grand.

This festive season try the most simple way by just draping yellow dhoti and adorning Rudraksh Mala.
