taamboola taTTe (plate)

Submitted by anirudh on Thu, 02/23/2012 - 05:39
taamboola for all the contestants :-) Did not want to break the tradition fully, so its again on terrace :) with rangoli powder Had designed this to make all the fruits & flowers to be drawn with dots, but due to time constraint, just uploading the plate...adding fruits & flowers using photoshop. Dot count 54 dots of three lines in oval shape. Corners quite tricky, had to add extra dots inbetween in the third line and 3, 1 to the last. full PC version on the way :-)

Anirudh, wonderful Thaamboolathattu kolam. A very innovative idea to keep the dots in the form of a plate and creating the plate with chikku kolam.The inner flowers, coconut, elai adikkae and fruits are very neatly arranged . The thin stylish chikku kolam ezhai is looking very beautiful! ( Any engagement ceremony in the near future? All the best)

thanks soo much for all the inspiring comments. Keeping the dots was quite painful, first i drew a thin oval line using chalk, then put dots on it, then followed the first line for others, but the other lines the distance between dots increases, and that too at the corners went way beyond, hence added in-between dots and made up the corner design. Wanting to try something with maavu paste....so this design would be the list :)
