Navrathri - Rangoli

Beautiful rangoli Deepa! I'm glad you thought about ikolam for sharing your rangoli for this Navrathri too. The focal point seem to be the dark brown color of the coffee granules that you've used in your rangoli. I, too, have done that in the past, due to lack of rangoli powder here in the U.S. Using coffee granules isn't easy, since the texture is a little coarser (verses coffee powder). At the same time, decorating with different materials is the most fun part in the whole rangoli-making procedure. Isn't the end result so rewarding?
