About Margazhi dew drops Kolam contest - 2008-2009 : PRINT

This kolam is drawn with rice flour with 19-10 dots (Oodu pulli). On top of that colour powders are used.

Just a small description about umbrella:
Umbrella means (shade) "a screen used in hot to keep off the sun, and in others to bear off the rain; "a kind of broad fan or screen, commonly used by women to shelter them from rain; also a wooden frame, covered with cloth, to keep off the sun from a window."
Its mainly used in all god utsavams to take ustasavars. So the umbrella has many possible uses.

"Are you at ease? Now is your heart at rest?

Now you have got a shadow, an umbrella,

To keep the scorching world's opinion

From your fair credit."

Children will like your kolam.
There are loly-pops, cone-ice and panju-mittais around!

One more possible use for the umbrella - if somebody threatens,
one can beat the person with it Smile You must ask Mary Poppins
for other uses! I like this concept quite a bit. All the
goodies of the summer are available there (even though it is
snowing here)! The centrally placed sun is quite nice. You
could have used the colours in a symmetric fashion. That
distorts the over-all beauty (yes, it is very beautiful) of
the rangoli. Best of luck and regards! - mohana
