Simple Padi Kolam for this year's last Aadi Velli. Aadi is the Tamil month and velli means Friday. We draw padi Kolam for Aadi Velli (Friday), this is a simple Padi Kolam with a touch of kaavi / kempu powder.
Padi Kolam is a traditional Kolam drawn for special functions or occasions. This can be drawn with normal rice flour / wet rice flour. Today's I'm sharing a wet rice flour padi kolam with a touch of kaavi. Hope you all like it!
AadiPeruku means 18th day of Aadi Maasum. This is to celebrate the water rising levels of all major rivers, lakes and water sources of Tamilnadu to onset the monsoon.

I'm happy to share this Padi Kolam with wet rice flour for 'Varamahalakshmi Pooja'. The strokes, cuves, design all depends upon your creativity. Borders we draw with kaavi/ kempu powder which is mixed with little water and used to draw strokes. Hope you all like it.
I'm happy to share this wet rice flour kolam / rangoli for Guru Purnima. For wet rice flour kolam we need to soak raw rice for 2 hrs. Grind to a smooth paste by adding little water. Add some more water to get a nice flowing consistency. With a small cotton dip in wet rice flour and squeeze slightly and start drawing your Rangoli.
Quasi-Kolam is something seems to be similar but it is not...somewhat similar. I am sharing two kolams with same set of dots...Eg 15-1 straight dots.
This was a task given to all the members by a kolam group creator / admin in facebook. Dots were given and we have to draw a line kolam & sikku kolam with own imagination.
Sikku Kolam
15-1 dots
Line Kolam
15-1 dots
Hope you all liked these kolams. Please do provide your comments.
