Rangoli on water surface step by step
Navarathri , Diwali decorations at home
The rangoli below uses a technique through which we draw double lines with different colours. Rangoli making on water is uncommon technique.
I have made difficult by drawing 2 lines kolam with two colours.
One of the best rangoli designs if you are looking for difficult methods . I have explained how to pick rangoli powder for this technique , in case you want to learn.
If left undisturbed the rangoli stays for a week. We can use to decorate our homes for Navarathri golu, as a Diwali special rangoli , light lamps around it.
Pour water on a clean plate. Choose the plate size according to the size of the rangoli you need to make.
Use a sieve and add rice flour . Rice flour ensures that the rangoli stays above water.and it also gives an opaque background so that the design in visible.
The sieve helps us to remove solid particles ( which otherwise we may have to break gently with a pin )
It also helps to spread the rice flour on water evenly.
Draw the rangoli gently on water , it should be similar to how an insect skims on the surface of water.
Drawing small dots on rangoli comes with practice.
Small white dots make the rangoli more beautiful.
