Now choose an easy and small rangoli design from the internet. Start the design by drawing a cross on the paper like a plus/cross sign keeping it symmetrical. This will give you four equal quadrants, basically draw something like this.

Step 3:
Always start from the centre and draw on to one half/side of the paper. Now repeat the same pattern on the other half. The plus sign helps to keep your pattern symmetrical. Using the pencil, make light strokes so that you can easily erase it if necessary. Try to keep the design small & simple for the first few times before attempting the complex ones.
Step 4:

Sawdust in different colours to fill in

Step 5:
After you are done filling in colour, add some finishing touches like another coat of white powder on the border. You can write wishes, add diyas or candles to make it even more beautiful.
Some pointers for all Rangoli enthusiasts:
No one did a fabulous Rangoli in one day or on their first attempt. So, girls take it slow and with patience, you will be ready and all geared up in no time.
At times while using chalk in powder form, the lines may appear thick or thin or uneven. Try the following tricks:
Trick 1: The Cone method
conical shaped hrubs
Take a small piece of paper and roll it into a conical shape like a mehndi tube. You can secure the narrow end with some glue or even cellophane tape. As per your design, cut the tip open to the desired thickness. Now hold your finger sealing the narrow opening and fill the cone with white chalk powder/semolina/sawdust.
Your cone is ready. Try doing the lines again. We are sure this time you will get them perfect. Use your fingers to control the flow of chalk powder.
Trick 2: Pinch out method
Take some colour/semolina/sawdust in your hand/fist and position your fingers like you would to sprinkle salt. Using your fingers, gently let small amounts of the powder fall out as you move your hand around the lines.
This method needs a bit of practice but making thick or thin lines will be very easy.
Hope this helps you to add some traditional touch to your decor the next festival around. Don’t forget to drop in a couple of lines and tell me how did your design look or if you have some creative ideas to better our Rangolis.
