Step by step: how to draw New Year Flower Easy Chinna Kolam

  1. Mark the 6-to-6 dot grid — six rows of six dots — and treat it as four 3×3 blocks, one for each corner motif.
  2. In each block draw a small spiral at the corner nearest the middle of the grid.
  3. From each spiral fan out four large rounded petals towards the outer corner, and inside each petal draw a short stem ending in a small teardrop loop.
  4. At the outer tip of each motif draw a tiny sprig of dots.
  5. In the empty centre between the four motifs write the numerals 2022 in large white strokes.
  6. Dust the petals lightly with white and re-trace the outlines.
