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.   ...

Deepavali chukki rangoli designs simple

 First chukki rangoli is with 5 dots. In case we are trying first time for Diwali rangoli and are looking for a simple design 

a small version (abridged version as my children say)

This kolam can be drawn independently or as the central design around which we can add free hand designs to get a bigger design

the dot grid is 5,3,1. An easy white rangoli design for the ensuing festival season. The second rangoli is with 7 by 4 chukki rangoli

The third design is 9 by 5 chukki rangoli.  Add colours to the white kolam to make it even more beautiful. 

In my opinion white rangoli are beautiful in their own way. The fourth kolam is with dot pattern 15 dots - 3 rows then 13, 11, 9 up to 3 dots.

The rose buds are important for this kolam the other patterns can be according to our choice

There were a few questions about my "team" because I have many social media accounts for rangoli designs.

My team has only two members Sudha and Balaji :)  i.e. my husband and I.  His inputs particularly for this blog are infinite.

My husband retires from service next year (you can guess my age :) For someone who belongs to a couple generations earlier to the present generation, he is tech savvy.  He takes care of editing of videos and photos, analytics and other technical stuff.  I can also do it to an extent since I was in e-publishing field earlier.  He does it out of interest and also to help me.
