If 10 years ago, you told me that the top rated Mehendi decor item was just a box lying at home with your old Tinkles and Archies, I would have simply laughed aloud and asked you to buzz off. But in 2017, this immaculate but trendy trunk is back on a power trip. From tin to wood to even paper mache - the trunk has come a long way.
Symbolic of the wedding trunk where medieval brides used to stock it up with their trousseau and take it home, this year, trunks went fashionable with exotic flowers stuffed into them, innovative wedding favours cramped inside and some wooden ones were even used as tables and centrepieces. Just take a look, will you? It's a super cute trend that's totally on budget and is perfect as a great Mehendi vignette.
How does one style a trunk?
Just stuff it with flora and fauna and you're set. The more colourful, the better!
