Simple Rangoli — Step by Step Guide

Below is the step-by-step breakdown. The video covers the same sequence in real time.

1. Clear a flat surface and set down your dot grid using rice flour or chalk.
2. Confirm the dot spacing is even — uneven dots are the biggest cause of wobbly curves.
3. Begin tracing from the centre outward, following the curves shown in the video above.
4. Fill the petals and sections with your chosen colours, working one area at a time.
5. Finish the edges with a fine line for a sharp, photograph-ready result.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I draw this rangoli?

Begin with the dot grid — this is the skeleton of the design. With rice flour or chalk, place each dot at equal intervals. Then trace the curves slowly, one section at a time.

Is this suitable for beginners?

Yes — this design is shaped specifically with newcomers in mind. The dot grid is small enough to manage, and the curves are gentle. Most learners get it right by the second try.

What materials do I need?

White rice flour for the outline, coloured powders for the fill, and a clean dry floor. That is the essentials list — you can add a stencil if you prefer.

How long does it take?

A 3 min 25 sec video shows the complete sequence. On paper or floor, expect to spend around a quarter of an hour from grid to finished pattern.

After you draw this, take a picture before the day blows it away. Kolam is impermanent by design, but a photo lets you revisit the version you drew.
