I usually share traditional rangoli on social media.
There were several requests for rangoli tips for beginners including easiest methods of drawing for festivals like Dhanteras, Bhaj Dooj, Lakshmi Pooja and of course Dipavali.
I started sharing designs with tools available at home bangles, old CDs, spoons. etc. The advantage is we get the simplest rangoli in the shortest possible time.
They are also perfectly symmetrical. Later many on social media started trying their own versions.

The first rangoli makes use of now what is the ubiquitous paper cup. When viewers on Facebook Page and YouTube requested me for easy methods to create rangoli designs since they were not comfortable with the traditional finger technique that we use in kolam. I put myself in their shoes and thus these methods were born. One rangoli video made using paper cups went so viral on my Facebook Page it reached nearly 15 million views!
The next design rangoli makes use of CD and bangles. The photos below should be self-explanatory.

Simple rangoli hacks for Diwali and New Year
This is a fusion of a traditional rangoli, only the circle is drawn with a tool. The spirals and other patterns are drawn free hand. The trick in drawing the spiral is that it should be drawn in a single stroke to get a beautiful and uniform pattern. If we draw in two or three steps it will be non-uniform with joints.

quick rangoli designs for Diwali, easy and fast rangoli, unique too you may try one of the ideas shared here.
Most of the ideas and techniques shared here do not involve the use of the traditional rangoli making methods using fingers. They are made directly with tools available at home. Only where circles and squares are needed at the centre, I have used white rangoli powder. I liked both the patterns created using paper cups.
Continuing from the beginning of the post, a rangoli created using paper cups (not the ones shared here) became so viral that it crossed one million views with a few hours and 10 million views in a couple of days. One crore view for an Indian rangoli video going viral throughout the world was really excellent experience may be because of the uniqueness in
easy way to make rangoli.
I have the principle of replying to all comments on social media. I may have missed a few due to any reasons beyond my control. For this video there were hundreds of comments and my hands ached replying to each one of them.
The interesting fact was that unintentionally I had given my YouTube channel link in the description for this video (nowadays once monetisation has been enabled by Facebook, adding links in the description is not advisable) and as a result a few videos on YouTube became viral too:)
