Bhogi muggulu design step by step images
I am sharing step by step pictures of the muggu I created for Facebook. Add kaavi colour to get a traditional look, decorate your house for Bhogi festival. It will give an auspicious aura.
This is based on padi kolam theme of Tamil Nadu. There are two schools in padi kolam. In one of the two , we start with square base. The lines are even 2, 4, 6. This is not a classical padi kolam
How to make muggu pindi at home
For those who are coming here for the first time, I use a mixture of white muggu pindi and rice flour. The ratio is for 3 parts muggu pindi I use one part rice flour. Mix both thoroughly. If there are any coarse particles in the muggulu powder remove with a sieve.
One of the main issues in drawing muggu without dots is how and where to start. Obviously, we know where to start, it is invariably at the centre. How to start - we have to decide what pattern is to be drawn at the centre. So, one of the many designs namely, circle, petals, triangles, square or spirals.
I have used square many a time - this variety is called the pond rangoli, since the centre represents a pond and the four sides or approaches are represented by patterns of our choice. The pic below shows how we can start with a floral design at the centre. Please note I have not added steps since I feel the picture may be self-explanatory.
If you have read many posts of this rangoli blog, you may find very little information is repeated. However, I repeat some information, I feel is to be repeated for the benefit of those who come here for the first time. I am referring to the term "pond rangoli" here.
So, if you feel there is repetition of information, please bear with me. I assure you that it is occasional only.
