Rangoli for diwali 2013

Rangoli for diwali 2013
November -2013 
Bangalore


This diwali I had lot of time as compare to my previous diwali's. Diwali is full of colors, decoration and lots of preparation of sweets etc. This time I wanted something to be made by vartika.. she is growing and love to do activities.
So I tried to make a rangoli from patters which vartika can make and can be placed in any form. Got the idea from craft kit. So I made the shapes from cardboard and asked vartika whether she want to make it. She said yes and want to make it at that time itself.

Steps to create beautiful pattern rangoli which can be used again.
1.      Cut the shapes are per the design. I have choose one in which there is one square piece and 4 heart shapes and 4 mango shapes.
2.      Now it’s time to color the pieces there are many ways which you can do it. I applied glue on one side of the pattern and asked vartika to sprinkle the rangoli color on top of it.
3.      Once it got dried up take a newspaper and turns the shape upside down so that extra rangoli fall down.
4.      You can use different colors for different pieces as you want your rangoli. Here’s your creativity comes.
5.      Once it got died up now you can further decorate you rangoli with glass and crystal stickers. You can put some glitters too.
 Now your pattern is ready. You can use it in any way with some flowers around it or with diyas.
