Dot rangoli for Varamahalakshmi festival

One of the biggest and auspicious festivals of India , Varamahalakshmi Pooja is celebrated in Sravan month.   We need lots of rangolis to decorate the mantap, in front of and around the mantap and of course the entrance of our homes.

 We may be comfortable with free hand or rangoli designs with dots.  This post is for those who prefer simple dot rangoli for decoration.  

Let us remember that kaavi decoration of the kolam or muggulu is mandatory for festivals
