About Rangoli competition : PRINT

My sister Uma works with LIC Bombay. They had a rangoli comptn in their office. These are some of the entries, her entry being the one with green and pink squares. I will ask her to become a member of Ikolam.

superb border, and nice coloring also using mirrors to decorate, looks wonderful....i see these kind of rangolis more in Maharashtra, Sanskar bharati rangoli is also similar, but comes full circle, so any other special name for this kind?

The Rangolis in Maharashtra are like, they spread the base colours, then draw designs with white. Here, the outer red border is done with stencil I think. Even though it is a semi circle rangoli, with the reflection, it gives a full circle effect. Yes, decorating with mirrors is a good idea.

Decorating using mirrors, and drawing such a rangoli in front of a mirror, combination of both with minimal colors makes this look so grand!
Thank you so much for these goodies Jayanthiji and Umaji.

Subhashiniji, this was not put by my sister, but by her colleague . Pls read the write up. Will convey all your comments to the respective persons through my sister. Thanx. Again the partition in the picture is looking like a glass door and not a mirror.
