What is the YouTube silver button price - it is price less for me ! Two years back I shared my experience in posting rangoli on YouTube.   As a recap ,  I am a traditional home maker from India .   After two decades as a home maker I wanted to do some thing, achieve something.  My husband gave me the idea of having a blog for rangoli and my son suggested that I upload rangoli videos on YouTube. I had my first email ( you read  it right , my first account in  2012  )  .  Using the account I started a blog and started posting rangoli.  Then I started posting some amateurish videos on YouTube with rangoli  or kolam as the theme.   In 2015 I received an email from YouTube asking me to share my mobile number because they wanted to discuss with me.   After checking that the email was actually from YouTube I mailed my number.   They were surprised that my Channel was becoming popular though only my hand was visible in my videos.  They were kind enough to invite me to the inauguration of Y
