How to draw an apartment kolam

  1. Get ready

    Measure the spot with your hand, then pick a design from this page that fits it. Sweep and sprinkle a little water so the powder holds.

  2. Draw the design

    Keep the design inside the width of the door. Draw the centre first, then add only as much border as the space allows.

  3. Finish and enjoy

    Close every line, add colour if you like, and step back to enjoy it. Draw the same design again tomorrow and it will come out faster.

Good to know

  • Most designs here take 3 to 8 minutes. The first few are the easiest, so start there.
  • Practise on the printed dot sheet first. The hand learns the turns on paper, then the floor is easy.
