Tezzbuzz Desk- The flowers left after the puja are often considered useless and thrown away. But if the flowers are clean and natural, they can be dried and reused. There is an easy way to prepare hawan cups at home. For this, help of some common things can be taken. However, to make cups, it is very important that the flowers are properly dried and do not contain any kind of chemical in them.
Instead of immediately throwing the flowers used in puja in the garbage, you can dry them thoroughly for a few days and use them. Cups prepared from dried flowers can be used with hawan material. Let us know the easy way to make it.
These things are needed to make Havan Cups
- Clean and dry flowers left after puja
- a little flour
- water as per need
- a small amount of camphor
- incense burner
- small cup, bowl or any small mold
dry the flowers thoroughly first
First of all, spread the flowers left after the puja on a clean cloth or a tray. Keep them in a place where there is good air circulation. Dry the flowers until the moisture in them is completely gone.
If there is moisture left in the flowers, there may be difficulty in drying the prepared mixture and it may also spoil quickly. Therefore, do not do this step in a hurry.
Make dried flower powder
After the flowers are completely dry, separate their petals and break them into small pieces with your hands. Now put them in a mixer or grinder and grind them coarsely.
There is no need to grind the flowers into a fine powder. The mixture can be easily shaped since it has a little texture.
Prepare the mixture like this
Take dried flower powder in a vessel and add a small amount of flour to it. The flour will help bind the mixture here. Now knead it by adding water little by little.
Take care that the mixture is not too wet. Keep it just moist so that it can be easily shaped by hand. If desired, some dry havan material can also be added to it.
Give desired shape to the cups
Now take small balls of the prepared mixture. Press them with your hands and make them a little deeper in the middle, giving them a cup-like shape. For this, the help of a small bowl or mold can also be taken.
Don't make the cups too thickso that they can dry thoroughly. After shaping, keep them in a ventilated place to dry completely.
Do not use these flowers at all
Only for preparing hawan cups clean and natural flowers Use. Do not include flowers that have been coated with chemical spray, paint, glitter or other decorative materials.
Similarly, moldy, rotten or very dirty flowers should not be used. When adding flammable ingredients like camphor, keep the quantity small and store the finished cups. In a dry and safe place, away from fire Keep.
In this way, instead of throwing away the natural flowers left after the puja, they can be converted into something useful.
