Tips for buying a name for your residence or Nameplate

Name letters are becoming popular due to personal reasons. Beautify the entrance to your house with unique personal names engraved with your family name and house number signs. Nameplates can help attract positive energy inside your house. A beautiful nameplate outside the front gate invites happiness, prosperity and wealth.

The nameplate serves as a decor element, reflecting the house owner's style sensibility.


Things to look for in Nameplate


Looking for a nameplate for your independent apartment, bungalow or any type of farm house, the nameplate should be on the main gate. Otherwise, if you are staying in an apartment, it is advisable to put a small nameplate on your door or next to your door.

In search of a nameplate for your independent apartment, bungalow or any type of farm house, the nameplate should be at the main entrance. Otherwise, if you are staying in an apartment, it is advisable to place a small nameplate on your door or next to your door. Walls may be a better option. Of course, there are no hard and fast rules when it comes to where the nameplate should go. All you need to keep in mind is that it should look good and make it absolutely clear to the first-time visitor where you live.

Colors play an important role when you are choosing a nameplate. Always try for contrasting colors; because contrasting colors make the nameplate more vibrant and show its name clearly and in style. Also, if you are choosing an acrylic or glass nameplate, make sure the letters are in a color that is noticeable against the wall.

All relevant information should be clearly visible in the nameplate. Adding flat numbers and names ensures that visitors are not confused when looking for you and your house.

You should ensure that you choose a nameplate that is sufficient to contain complete information about your home and is readable at least a foot or two away.

A nameplate that is not noticeable does not do its job. It is best to illuminate the nameplate with an external LED fixture. LED lighting is energy efficient and can ensure that your name appears in good light at an affordable cost.

The nameplate that always exposes the elements needs to be protected. So, look for names that are weatherproof. It is a small investment that will give you long term returns. This is particularly important for bungalows and independent houses.

Nowadays the nameplate is easy to install. All nameplates come with different installation options. You can go for names that may have screws, hooks or even permanent glue. Whichever installation method you go for, just make sure that you are using the nameplate for a longer period.

Know the difference between Porches, Balcony, Verandas, Patios and Deck


A well-designed outdoor is a lucky circumstance for all homes and all seasons. Some of us have balconies, other decks, porches, patties or verandas. While most of us have a penchant for swapping these terms (and for believing that they all have the same meaning), they each have their own character and specifications.


Porches: They are generally low and covered structures, which are located in the entrance of the building. Porches can be both: open structures without windows; or covered interior expansions that protect the home from asymmetrical weather conditions. Their roofs provide shade; This is why porches are the perfect area for relaxation during summer; Nevertheless, porches differ in different parts of the world, both in function and look.

Balcony: It is an exterior extension of the upper floor of the building; on average one meter-enclosure (railing, ballasters, etc.). Balconies can be made from any solid and good-looking material; There is no strict rule. The balconies provide outdoor areas for various activities; Especially for apartment owners who lack the satisfaction of having a personal yard.

Verandas (also known as verandas): Stand for all sorts of enclosed platforms around the house. In fact, they play the role of a ground floor balcony, such as provides access around the house and both sides of the back door of the house. While the verandas is mostly an open area and can be used for all types of outdoor activities.

Patios: They represent living space outside your home, either a proper garden or a basic rest area. Depending on their size, the patios can be both attached and open. They are usually made of brick, concrete, stone, gravel or flagstone. Usually, the courtyards are attached to the house but again it all depends on your needs, desires and possibilities.

Deck: A deck is usually a roofless platform connecting a house. The decks are usually made of wood and are elevated from the ground. This may include places to sit, food as well as BBQ. The deck is usually covered by a railing. In some cases, the deck may also be covered by a pergola or canopy.

Such places can be found in both residential and commercial buildings; And are preferred due to the remarkable urban landscape they provide. This trend is becoming so popular that construction companies have begun to specialize in the design of these modern outdoor havens.

Upcoming year Griha Pravesh Dates and Timing for 2020 or Griha Pravesh Muhurat / Vastu Shastra 2020


Griha pravesh Muhurats are calculated on the basis of dates (Tithis), Days, Lagna and Nakshatras. 

Home entrance ceremony or home entrance is an important moment in a person's life. This is because, when it comes to property investment, property buyers are generally particular about auspicious days. It is believed that organizing a Griha Pravesh ceremony on an auspicious day brings good luck.

Griha Pravesh as per Vedic Text


According to Vedic beliefs, the month of Magha, Phalguna, Jyeshtha, and Vaisakha is best for the Griha pravesha Muhurat.

Home building ceremonies are prohibited during the four months or Chaturmas, such as Ashadha, Shravana, Bhadrapada and Ashwin. It is believed that all the deities including Lord Vishnu rest during this period. Apart from these months, Paush month is also considered inauspicious for home entry.


Homework can be done on all other days of the week, except Tuesday. However, in some exceptional situations, it is forbidden to enter a new house on Sundays and Saturdays.


Shukla paksha's Dvitiya, Tritiya, Panchami, Saptami, Dashami, Ekadashi, Dwadashi and Trayodashi are considered auspicious for home grown celebrations, except Amavasya and Poornima.

Types of Griha Pravesh are:-


It is believed that a Home warming ceremony or Griha pravesha is done to enter the new house, which is wrong. According to Vastu Shastra, there are generally 3 types:

Apoorva: When someone enters their new house to live, it is called Apoorva Griha.

Sapoorva: If a person lives in some other place and leaves his house empty due to some issues. Then, after some time when they return to their house, it is called Sapoorva Griha Pravesh.

Dwandhav: If a person has to leave his house helpless due to natural disaster. Then, he has to do the Griha pravesha Puja Vidhan to stay in his old house. This is known as the duel house.

Home Entry AfterComplete Construction (Home Construction Work)


Occasionally, it has been observed that people enter their under-construction house. According to Hinduism, this activity is not considered correct and some rituals need to be followed before homecoming. Such as:


With complete construction of the roof of the house, avoid entering the home until the main door is placed in your new house. After homecoming, try not to lock your main door as it is considered inauspicious.


Tips for entering your new home


  • Always enter home on auspicious day. The idols should be placed in the east direction of the house.
  • To cleanse and purify the place, wipe the floor of the house with salt.
  • When entering the house, always place the right foot first.
  • The main gate should be decorated with mango leaves and fresh flowers, as it is called the lion gate and is the face of the Vastu Purush.
  • Rangoli on the floor is believed to invite Goddess Lakshmi. Decorate the floor with rangoli using vibrant colors.

 Akshaya Tritiya is the best time to ceremonialize your new home, as this day is considered an auspicious day. This is also the right time to buy or invest a property, as property dealers offer a variety of discounts, schemes and freebies to entice customers.
