Navratri is nine nights of garba and dandiya. This 2.5 ft Navratri rangoli has a garbo (pot lamp) in the centre, crossed dandiya sticks and two dancers in flared ghagras. It takes about 50 minutes.
Step-by-step instructions
Step 1
Draw a garbo (a clay pot with holes and a lamp inside) in the centre.
Step 2
Draw two crossed dandiya sticks behind it.
Step 3
Draw a garba dancer on each side, with arms raised and a wide flared skirt.
Step 4
Fill the garbo orange with yellow light dots, the sticks red and green, the skirts in bright pink, blue and yellow, and outline in white.
Tips
- Draw the skirts as wide circles. That gives the twirling look.
