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.   ...

Chukkala muggulu with 6 dots ela veyali

This is an easy method to create a muggu.  Using these repeated patterns we can create many designs.  I will share more ideas . 

 After drawing these , we can decorate with motifs and colours to make it beautiful .  

We can draw for festivals  like Sankranthi or Ugadi or use for our daily purpose muggulu without colour. 

The pink or rose patterns can be drawn on floor with tiles ( provided the background contrast is good )

 As a cement floor rangoli also it may be possible.

If you are looking for beautiful chukki rangoli designs or beautiful pulli kolangal this will certainly pass the test.
