    Hi Friends..

    Before marriage, I used to help my mom in just coloring the rangolis. But after marriage, I thought of drawing kolams.. And believe me, my first kolam was pathetic and not a single line come properly.. :-( :-(

    Then, I started searching about kolams and started practising it in notebooks. And my IL friends started encouraging me... One fine day, I tried in my house.. Though the initial days are not much speakable, slowly started picking up..

    These are my attempts..
    Please pour in your suggestions to improve my kolams.

    Hi Roopa,

    Thank you so much.. I'll post the kolams in this thread soon.. Thank you so much for the encouragement.
    You can also look into ikolam website. I got the small kolams from that website.. And I tried some from swaran's padi kolam's thread..
