Step by step: how to draw Put Easy Method Front Door Kolam
- Mark the 6-to-6 dot grid — six rows of six dots.
- In the centre draw a four-petal flower with a small circle at its heart and a pair of short dashes on each petal.
- Around the flower draw four straight lines on the diagonals so they form an open diamond frame.
- On each of the four diagonal lines build a fan of four large rounded petals opening outward toward the corner.
- Inside each fan draw lines radiating from its base, each ending in a dot.
- In the four gaps between the flower petals and the frame draw a spiral curl, then re-trace all outlines in white.
