Not every home has space for a big rangoli. This small rangoli design is just 1 ft wide, with a six-petal flower and a tiny diya in the middle. It fits a balcony, a small doorstep or the front of a pooja shelf, and takes about 15 minutes.
Step-by-step instructions
Step 1
Draw a circle about 3 inches wide in the centre and six pointed petals around it.
Step 2
Draw a small diya inside the centre circle with its flame pointing up.
Step 3
Fill the petals pink with orange tips, the diya orange and the flame yellow.
Step 4
Add a small green leaf between each petal and finish with a white outline.
Tips
- Use a rangoli pen for the diya so the small details stay sharp.
- A small rangoli looks best with strong, contrasting colours.
