 Best rangoli for competition no. 1 

I have used just two colours to shade.  Please note that I draw free hand designs without any aids.  I do not draw the pattern first with a piece of chalk.  If we practice regularly we can get better at symmetry.  

Best rangoli for kolam competitions no. 2

I just love the orange colour used in the periphery.  Actually this is what makes the rangoli stand out in what is otherwise a simple pattern.

Best and easy rangoli no 3 

A very popular rangoli on social media particularly YouTube few years ago.  Making use of the square base at the centre is an easy way to create a rangoli for festival.  I have not used any colours.  What we have to observe is the absence of any joints in the curved lines.  If we draw without joints the beauty of a rangoli is enhanced manifold.

Best simple rangoli designs for Diwali no. 4 

There should be at least one rangoli with diya or lamp patterns since Diwali is after all a festival of lights.  It is probably one of the easiest and simplest diyas rangoli with dots.  Hope you will try it.

Best small rangoli no. 5        

                   

The image above may be useful for beginners who are trying traditional method of drawing for the festival.  It is a small and cute design.   Mast rangoli is a common comment on my videos on Facebook.
