Rangoli Designs to Liven that Diwali Vibe
A Classic Round Rangoli
No matter how many different types of Rangoli designs come in trend, but nothing can match the class and beauty of a classic round rangoli.
A vibrant round rangoli in the center of the house is all you need on the very main day of the festival. It is the best way to make a rangoli. Circles after circles filled with different colors and bordered like a mandala are the most perfect way.
Lighting diyas around it after sunset makes it look even more beautiful. So, if this Diwali you are clueless about the rangoli then this is the idea for you. If you are not very sure about your artistic skills then go for it. A round rangoli requires minimal effort and looks completely beautiful. Remember that classic things can never go out of trend. Check out this video tutorial on how to make a basic but endearing Rangoli design!
Use the Beauty of Flowers
If you are bored of making rangoli with colors every year, give it that simple but classic beauty with flowers.
Flowers are undoubtedly one of the most beautiful supplies to use in Rangoli designs. All you need to do is gather flowers of different colors and set them in a rhythmic pattern. In some cases, leaves can also work if you want to include green color in your design. And it is perfect if you are not very artistic or creative because it is not very tough to get it done. It looks super beautiful and traditional, perfect for the festivities. It is definitely one of the best Rangoli ideas for Diwali.
Patterned Rangoli Ideas for Diwali
If you are good at drawing and making lined patterns then this is the type of rangoli for you. All you need to do is draw beautiful patterns in a rhythm with different colors. You can do this thing in any way you want. It gives you a lot of scope to implement your creativity and imagination. As one can use any color, draw any pattern, and follow any rhythm. Start by spreading different random colors on the floor and then draw patterns with white color on them. By this, the white color will appear more beautifully on the vibrant background. Putting a few candles or tea lights on your rangoli can notch it up. So, what are you waiting for, go and make one such rangoli of your own!
Decorate Corners With Rangoli Colors
Most of the time we end up making rangolis in the center but what about decorating the corners of the house. Rangoli in the corners is a new trend. In this colored designs are made in the perpendicular corner or sticking to the wall. A peacock patterned rangoli is the best choice for this. One can get completely creative while making this because there is a lot of scope for creativity. By this, you can add a festive spark to the sad and boring corners of your house. A thick border with the wall also works well. You can place painted earthen pots or lanterns on it to make it look even more beautiful. So, how about making a rangoli like this, this year.
Abstract Rangoli Ideas for Diwali
We all have made rangolis from colors, semolina flour, flowers, and leaves. They can be made from beads and earthen pots. Abstract rangolis are not core rangolis but can work for it. It can work as a corner showpiece for Diwali as well. It is very simple to get it done, put three downwards facing pots, and arrange layers of beads. Show it like flowing water and your design will be good to go. Paint pots in beautiful vibrant colors and decorate accordingly to make your rangoli look even more beautiful. Add water to the pot and put flowers on it to give it a floating rangoli effect. It is something that you will not see at someone else’s home. Do give it a try!!
