The pic below shows how to draw a deepam kolam with 5 to 1 dots
The kolam below uses a 3 by 3 dots
Two of the constraints that we face at present are time and space . Many live in flats and particularly if the entrances of neighbours are very close space to draw our daily rangoli becomes a premium. Similarly time is also a factor in many homes because both husband and wife are office goers. So a few very small rangoli designs in this post for our vasal kolangal
The next image shows a collection of small small rangolis that we can add to our inventory . Some of them can be used to decorate the periphery of an already drawn design
