Deepavali 2012

This year (Diwali 2012) I almost did not make any Rangoli...pretty much decided to take it easy. But it was on my mind... One day i saw my old Rangoi folder with some pictures and design. Seeing them, made me think "Why can't i make one simple design?".. So here it is.

Material : Rangoli Colours / Coloured Sand, Tea Lights or Clay Lamps (optional for decorating around the design.)

Colours : Pink, Yellow, Purple.White.

Shubh Deepavali 2011

Deepavali 2011

Deepavali is the one festival when I attempt to make a rangoli. Mom had given me a few designs, tried looking for an easy one, but none of them could be done in a really short time. Then I found one an easy one online at akashlee.com.

I would love to make a Rangoli everyday if I could.
