Step by step: how to draw New Muggulu Designs Simple 5-5 Dots Rangoli with Easy Flower Kolam

1. Mark the 5-to-5 dot grid — five rows of five dots.
2. In the centre draw a four-petal flower of thin loop petals on the diagonals, each with a short stem ending in a dot inside it.
3. Enclose the flower in a diamond, drawing a small square knot at each of its four corners.
4. On each of the four diagonals, against the sides of the diamond, draw a three-petal lotus — a central bud with a short line and dot inside and a side petal on each side — with a curved pointed leaf on either side.
5. On the top, bottom, left and right, between the lotuses, draw an S-curve that curls into a spiral at each end.
6. Dust the lotus petals lightly with white and re-trace the outlines.
