Easy rangoli designs - beginners

Though I have drawn all the designs myself personally I am thankful to my family for the inputs, information and help in drafting all the posts so far.  I have used the terms kolam  rangoli quite freely in all the posts. Probably there would have been differences based on classical (!) explanations in the past but today kolams can also be colourful like rangolis both in the free hand and dots type  I find that even the terms rangoli kolam and kolam rangoli are used at  present. The only area where I think kolam are different are in sikku kolam and arisi maavu kolam. Both are beautiful, challenging and can be intricate . Rangoli is muggulu in Telugu and so this post will be useful for those in search of small and simple muggulu for beginners.  This post   may have answers  kutty rangoli /kolam designs The rangoli in the image below is one of the basic designs that can be used for learning.   Form a star with two inverted triangles.   ...

Yellow rose petal garland images

Yellow rose decoration using petals - we need yellow roses and craft thread. I have used golden colour to match with the colour of the flowers.

Remove the petals from the flowers gently.  Take four or five petals such that the outermost is the biggest.

Again form a loop with string and tie both sets of petals together.  i.e the first and second.
When we place the third set of petals tie the 2nd and 3rd set of petals.

The top view of the petals as shown.  Make it as long as possible to make a garland.  Such garlands can be used for Pooja .  We invariably use yellow flowers for Guru on Thursday.  So we can make this yellow rose garland for images of Sri Raghavendra Swamy or Sai Baba or other Gurus in our Pooja room. It can also be used for Varamahalakshmi Habba decoration

Alternatively we can make a semicircular garland and use it for hair decoration - for bridal hair decoration for weddings or festivals like Seemantham and Valaikappu.
