This was made for the Karthigai deepam function. The 8-petal flower is the basis for this design. I have drawn many inputs from ikolam.com website!!
Flower Rangolis
Here are the kolams and rangolis in this page:
- Karthigai Kolam
- Flower and Fish kolam
- Free hand Rangoli
- Kolam
- Karthigai Rangoli
- Karthigai deepam rangoli
- Peacocks
- Rojapoo kolam
- Poo Kolam
- Rangoli using Crossandra flowers
I have been drawing such kolams only from the last 2 months!! I am still an amatuer compared to all the talented ladies contributing to this wonderful website!!
This kolam was made with the basic 5-petal flower design as the base. I used many ideas from iKolam.com for this kolam. Please give me your valuable suggestions to help me improve.
This rangoli is made up of Samanthi flowers and Rose petals. This rangoli comprises of many star designs.
This rangoli was made of Samanthi and rose petals. This picture was taken immediately after lighting the Karthigai deepam.
This rangoli was reated by Bharathi, Lakshmi and Pinky (Bharathi's co-sister). Here is the dots sequence:
25x5
23
17-9
7x3
5
It is a dotted kolam and the dot count is 15 to 8. I used gel pen for the filling. The name of this kolam is Rojapoo kolam but it looks like Rangoli.
First leave all the flowers in different plates...select a design with the available colours of the flowers and then draw the design on the floor using chalk...apply a paste on the floor so that the flowers stay in its place, in spite of any breeze on the top floors....apply the paste on a particular part and immediately scatter the flowers on the sticky part and proceed similarly!
