When I was growing up I don’t know if it was because I never noticed Ramadan and Eid decorations or if they actually didn’t exist online or in stores. But one thing is for sure, this year blew me away with the number of commercial stores carrying Ramadan/Eid goods. Wal-Mart, Indigo, Crate & Barrel; just to name a few. I’m sure there were so much more (comment below if I missed any). They carried items like onesies with messages like “My First Eid”, “Ramadan Mubarak” (which I missed out on purchasing this year, but inshaAllah next year), Indigo carried local businesses cake toppers, wrapping paper, gift bags and Crate & Barrel had the coolest Ramadan Calendar for kids! (Also missed purchasing this one!) I am seriously so excited for Ramadan and Eid for next year because:
For my awesome local readers, I found the very best place to get your balloons. Not only does her service beat everyone else, but the product even stands out from the competition. You can find her on Instagram and she has a website with more details.
This was my first year decorating our home for Ramadan and Eid. I didn’t want to worry about doing the entire first floor of our home or looking for items to buy. I wanted to spend as much time as I could praying, reading Quran and dhikr of course. InshaAllah as every year goes by I won’t have to worry about decorations, as I’ll collect over the years anyway.
I used the sparkle star banner around my cupcake stand as a garland for it. And as a banner to dress up a corner in our family room. Baby D noticed right away when I put it up and said it was so pretty! (Proud mom moment hehe).
Sparkle star banner, paper lantern, Happy Eid Banner and Ramadan/Eid Banner are from ModernEid.
The pink and blue star/moon banner is a pdf doc purchase via @sidraandco. Check out her Etsy store here. She also does cute custom tote bags. In Arabic or English.
I love these charger, dinner plates, and napkins from Eid Creations. The pink paper plate is from Wal-Mart. Re-used from Baby Z’s birthday. I just love the pop of colour.
Okay, so ideally I’d love to wrap their presents and have them open them on Eid Day, but I could not wait for them to play with everything, so I gave it to them as I received it. (As seen on Instagram stories.)
Super impressed with the technology in this mat. It goes through the entire process of preparing for prayer, the steps, and recitation along with the person praying. Alhumdullilah, now I can ensure that not only I am praying with correct pronunciation but my children too. I highly recommend this mat for those either curious to learn, for children and even adults learning to update/correct.
I actually bought these while I was in Japan, online. I had seen it on Instagram and had to purchase them right away for my little ones. Mostly, because I learned it was a gift that gave back. They are handmade wooden toys by disabled carpenters in a Gaza Refugee Camp in Jordan.
The Eid we opted for catering food and I did not bake. Surprising right? I usually bake up a storm. Eventually, I’d love to add to this segment with traditional Eid and Ramadan recipes or suggestions but all I got for you this year is cupcakes were from Loblaws and we got Mandi from MONASABAH restaurant, which honestly has the best Mandi you’ll ever have!
Hope everyone had a blessed Ramadan and an awesome Eid! Please keep our family in your duas.
