Kolam by Sudha Balaji

 Try this different padi kolam for Sri Krishna Jayanthi.  You have to believe it , I created this instantaneously.  Lotus patterns are most welcome for festivals .  This is where I thought for a while before adding them as shown in the images. Dots , spirals , shading always add more beauty to the kolam .  White rangoli is also beautiful , we can display it without colours as is usually done.  You can also try it for Sankranthi geethala muggulu new designs  These without chukki rangoli drawn mostly with lines are intricate  Old fashioned rangoli designs are among the top rangoli .  We can try once for Diwali , Dhanteras. Decorate with kaavi or draw with wet rice flour for the festival

Few small kolam designs for Avani Avittam festival.  Decorate with kaavi border .  The images above give us some ideas for  ( festival ) decoration with kolam.   If my memory serves me right all the 5 designs have been created by me.  All are based on line rangoli designs .  One is a very traditional padi kolam The first rangoli with lotus patterns can be drawn as a simple without chukki rangoli for Varamahalakshmi Pooja. Now , this white kolam is also classy , simple yet unique.  The steps , I have shared elsewhere on Rangolisansdots  A very traditional padi kolam ( rangoli with lines without chukki are called so ).  We can also draw it for Dasara kolu This is based on Krishnan Dindu ( bolster used by Lord Krishna to rest on )
