Karthigai Deepam kolam designs

Use 7 by 4 dots , draw the lines connecting the dots, draw lines between .  Add patterns in and around the kolam.  I have used lotuses.  We can use lamp designs also for Karthigai Deepam festival  

When I start is appears very simple and the final image is totally different and is a pleasant surprise - this is the feedback from regular followers on Facbook, Instagram.  If you notice I have used 6 lotus patterns for 6 Faces of Lord Muruga. 

Use of small dots and shading will make beautiful even a very simple rangoli as is evident from the final step of this rangoli.  Decorate with colour patterns outside.  Also the dots can be placed with rangoli colours.  The quality of the colours and white kola podi should be that they obey our command
