Diwali muggulu Rangoli kolam with lines
Diwali muggulu with lines | Dhaurmasam geethala muggulu | Sankranti geethala muggulu
Traditional rangoli with lines are drawn for festivals and functions in many parts of India. They are particularly popular during Dhaurmasam or Margazhi up to Sankranti ( Pongal )
We may use for Diwali also for change instead of the usual colourful rangoli .
These may be considered as innovative rangoli for Diwali. Draw with a kaavi border to denote that it is for an auspicious occasion. The rangoli with lines is small but it may not be as simple as the final image suggests.
First some small muggu that can be drawn easily without step by step images. These are a deviation from the traditional muggulu with lines and are cute and trendy
The above four designs if you notice make use of trendy patterns on a basic square. I have used two lines only , usually we draw designs with 4 lines. In our family we make use of 2,4 and 5 too.
Next draw a rhombus like shape connecting the four sides of the square. Now draw a smaller square inside the rhombus. Now decorate the spaces inside with a number of usually 4 or 5 lines
Diwali is one of the most auspicious festivals and celebrated in various parts of India, USA, UK, Europe and many other countries unlike some festivals that are celebrated at a state or regional level, Diwali is celebrated throughout the world wherever Indians live. Padi kolam or rangoli designs with lines are drawn for auspicious occasions and festivals. We can try this beautiful art for Diwali or Laxmi Puja decoration, or for Bhai dooj . We decorate this kolam with a kaavi (ochre) border when drawn on Fridays, festivals and functions like wedding, warming. The images should be self-explanatory for the steps in drawing this rangoli. It can be drawn free hand also, but I have used a 4 by 4 dot pattern.
Diwali muggulu designs | Easy rangoli
In this theme for Deepavali festival with only rangoli with lines. An easy rangoli design through the images below. It is tricky at one place otherwise a small and simple muggu only
One of the photos above is somewhat obscure because it was taken early in the morning. The flashlight of the camera was not working probably and the light on the street was not sufficient for taking a clear image. Deepavali is Deepavali :) The best among festivals. When we were young - on other days we struggled to wake up in the morning, for Diwali waking up at 3.30 am or 4.00 am was not a problem.
