Easy rangoli designs - beginners

30+ rangoli kolam simple designs  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.

This is the aarti sung in my maternal side, by my mother for festivals like Varalakshmi Vratham , Navratri and on all Fridays after the Pooja.  I have shared an aarti sung in Telugu by my mother-in-law in a different post.    After all, Mahakavi Bharathiyar said _ "Go in all eight directions and bring the best in art and culture back home " So, we sing these two songs in Kannada and Telugu in our homes.  They are really very simple and beautiful.  When we sing with bhakthi and bhava we can realise the greatness of these songs. This harathi has been sung in our family for more than five decades (to my knowledge) The video is 👉 how to make aarti plate  from my YouTube Channel "Sudha Balaji " and shows how to make a different type of aarthi plate.  This aarthi plate my mother learnt from my grandmother!      Mangala aarthi thandhu belegire  ( Offer auspicious aarti, illuminate Her Face) ambujasana ranige   ...
