    Thank you very much Andal dear for your lovely feedback..
    Yeah it is redsand road.. Hence the white and color powder on that makes the kolam to look brighter..

    wow archana very nice...
    thank you ashwanth...ther kolam i do have...i have made a small one..but today i actually planned for ther kolam but picked this up for god knows what reason..hehee...but planning to make one in margazhi :)
    floor,mmm not cemented actually...big stones(parai madri),joined with cement..actually at the start of this year my house owner had made a neat cement flooring...i was the most happiest person but it was damaged by the govt drainage contractors few months back :-(...a neat floor always creates great interest while making kolam:)..dont you think?!!!
    thanks a lot Aarchana
    try it archana,it ll come with ease :)
    swathi,thank you very much for the encouraging feedback Bow
    but another question.rice flour,wont it give an uneven spread..i mean tippi tippi(in tamil we say when the coat is not uniform) effect???
    thanks ashwanth...small request...but can you please share your kolams in this thread as well...it would be like a common place where all margazhi kolams will be shared!!!
