Decorating the deities was fast becoming an art. This was taught in the big temples in India. Mavai temple too learnt this art and soon started dressing up the deity in beautiful silks and satins, colorful garlands and bouquets to create a beautiful picture appealing to the eye. The local artisans too were trained in the art and contributed to the temple in a meaningful- manner while earning a living.
