Amazing work with bright colours (of coconut Poo) and real Poo, Rajammaji. I wonder your creativity and enthusiasm (Kannu pada pogudhamma, Rajamma amma, Suththi poda sollunga, amma).

i also tried to dry the coconut poo after extracting the milk but the crows ate half of it and the rest by squirrels:(

Seriously, is it coconut that is used for the colored areas? It very much looks like felt pieces. Nice decoration with plastic flowers and real flowers. Great idea and awesome coloring! :)

Thank you all for appreciating and expressing it in nice words. Lata, It is coconut poo only, after grinding in the mixie and removing the milk from it, it became very soft and fine. I added indigo liquid food color , but it became too dark. Forthe green, i mixed apple green and royal blue and got this dark green.( I am doing experiment mixing with 2, 3 colors.). Brindha, you keep it in the freezer and it becomes dry,My rangolis also tasted by squrrils and birds. rajamma

wonderful rajammaji....i am wondering...whether they are seals (seen them many in sfo) waiting to play :) or already doing some tricks using the banana flower?
