Easy rangoli kolam designs with colours

Important Rangoli tip  Filling up rangoli with colours of our choice or suitable to the motifs or patterns used.

 Filling rangoli with rangoli powder also comes with practice because care should be taken to ensure that the colour of

 one pattern or design does not spill into the other. 

 However, if it happens, it can be corrected.  For example if we fill a rose with pink colour and we inadvertently

spill green meant for the leaves, on the pink petals, that can be corrected by adding pink again over the spilt green colour.

Drawing  neat and beautiful curved lines makes the rangoli very attractive though it is a very simple rangoli design. 

Colourful curved lines parallel to the white design can be drawn to  get a colourful design. Or leave it plain and simple.

These rangolis can be used as apartment kolams as they are called in Tamil Nadu. 

Apartment kolam are small rangoli designs drawn at the entrance of apartments due to constraints in space.

These designs are created by me.  However I share some common rangoli with chukki too on Facebook too, reluctantly.  I was pleasantly surprised by the feedback I got .

"beautiful design .... I had almost forgotten this design, the number of dots.  I could quickly reload the memories of making this rangoli on Fridays in the 1990s " 

So I have decided to share even common kolam , some one will definitely be benefitted .

"Where do you purchase rangoli colours , they are beautiful "  this is a common question viewers ask on social media .  I purchase from Koradi near Nagpur.  In Tamil Nadu , we lived near Salem when I was young.  In  Salem awesome colours are available.  Copper sulphate blue in Salem is the best in my opinion.   Salem is also famous for colourful sarees.  May this is one of the reasons  awesome colour rangoli powder is available there.  However in Tamil Nadu kolam are filled with colours only for Diwali , Pongal , Bhogi and New Year.  Daily kolangal are with white kolam podi.
