It has now become a tradition to decorate the surroundings, lit earthenware lamps called diyas and make beautiful rangolis. Rangoli is basically a colorful pattern drawn on floors and then filled with either flowers or rangoli powder or colored rice. The rangoli made with flowers is called Pookalam and is very popular in Southern India. The Rangoli made with rice flour is popular in West Bengal now called as Poshchim Bongo. In Maharashtra the rangoli is made using the bright powdered color.

To decorate the entrance and veranda I can not think anything better than rangoli. Colors are an important part of India and Indian culture and tradition. It is one such creative expression which is found in all parts of the country. Used mostly during festivals, Rangoli is an art of making attractive, innovative designs on the entrance of the house - as a symbol of welcoming guest.

Now-a-days, it is very simple to make rangolis, even if one is not an expert. Plastic moldswith ready made designs are available in all kinds of stores. Designs like motifs, stars, flowers, birds and all kinds are there in all shapes and sizes. One can combine 2 to 3 designs together with the molds and create a Rangoli pretty fast. You only need to put some sand powder over the mold and press it on a floor base.

So next time, you feel like making a Rangoli is too much work, think again. Besides, once you get the hold of making Rangolis, the creativity simply flows in and the designs start taking its own shapes.
