Easy rangoli kolam designs with colours

Important Rangoli tip  Filling up rangoli with colours of our choice or suitable to the motifs or patterns used.

 Filling rangoli with rangoli powder also comes with practice because care should be taken to ensure that the colour of

 one pattern or design does not spill into the other. 

 However, if it happens, it can be corrected.  For example if we fill a rose with pink colour and we inadvertently

spill green meant for the leaves, on the pink petals, that can be corrected by adding pink again over the spilt green colour.

Drawing  neat and beautiful curved lines makes the rangoli very attractive though it is a very simple rangoli design. 

Colourful curved lines parallel to the white design can be drawn to  get a colourful design. Or leave it plain and simple.

These rangolis can be used as apartment kolams as they are called in Tamil Nadu. 

Apartment kolam are small rangoli designs drawn at the entrance of apartments due to constraints in space. 
                       
Some designs in here may be suitable for kids too !

These designs are created by me.  However I share some common rangoli with chukki too on Facebook too, reluctantly.  I was pleasantly surprised by the feedback I got .

"beautiful design .... I had almost forgotten this design, the number of dots.  I could quickly reload the memories of making this rangoli on Fridays in the 1990s " 

So I have decided to share even common kolam , some one will definitely be benefitted .

"Where do you purchase rangoli colours , they are beautiful "  this is a common question viewers ask on social media .  I purchase from Koradi near Nagpur.  In Tamil Nadu , we lived near Salem when I was young.  In  Salem awesome colours are available.  Copper sulphate blue in Salem is the best in my opinion.   Salem is also famous for colourful sarees.  May this is one of the reasons  awesome colour rangoli powder is available there.  However in Tamil Nadu kolam are filled with colours only for Diwali , Pongal , Bhogi and New Year.  Daily kolangal are with white kolam podi.

9 dots or pulli kolangal

I f you have come to this blog post in search of  9 dots kolam , 9 to 5 chukki rangoli , 9 chukkala muggulu  or 9 dots rangoli designs you may have come  the right place. As my mother used to say ''manolayam'' - concentration on the task in hand and thinking of nothing else.  Easier said than done.  In fact I find it difficult to stop a kolam at any step ( practitioners of kolam I think will agree ) but time and space are constraints. After viewing these kolangal designs please also like my Facebook page Rangoli sans dots  As they say regimentation and creativity do not go hand in hand.   The choices can be limited only by our imagination.  Each will be beautiful or awesome in its own way. So we must allow our imagination to do its job and the probability of getting an acceptable kolam design is quite high!  Now for some pulli vecha kolangal with 9 dots grid or 9 dots muggulu or chukki rangoli designs First a simple 9 pulli 5 varisai deepam kolam for our Margali, Ne
