Photograph of a floor covered with a green cloth, displaying many handmade garlands and festoons in bright colours. Long garlands in white, maroon, green and orange sit alongside stacked yellow and green garlands, with several large pompom-like flower clusters in maroon and white tied to cords. Coiled green garlands lie in the lower left, and yellow garlands with brown centres are bundled to the right. No people are visible; the arrangement appears to be decorative fabric or flower-style garlands prepared for shipment of temple items.Making Of Sacred Arts UniversityA photo of many rows of colourful artificial flower garlands laid out on a cloth-covered floor under a covered veranda.
