Step by step: how to draw Easy Rangoli Designs for Diwali With 5 to 5 Dots

1. Mark the 5-to-5 dot grid — five rows of five dots.
2. In the centre draw a square with a small eight-petal flower in its middle, and fill the square around the flower with four curved bands of dashes edged with dots.
3. Midway along each side of the square draw an almond eye shape with a spiral inside — four in all.
4. On each of the four corners draw a four-petal flower with rounded petals, each petal marked with a line and a dot.
5. Behind the two outer petals of each corner flower draw a half-moon shape and shade it with fine strokes.
6. Link neighbouring corner flowers with an outward-curving arc on each side.
7. On each arc at the top, bottom, left and right draw a five-petal lotus with a dot in its middle petal.
