SPARKLE AND COLOURS: THE ART OF RANGOLI
Hindustan Times Delhi
|October 19, 2025
Whether it’s a warm glow or a dazzling scene, the fusion of pattern and light is what makes a showstopper rangoli. Priya Chakraborty writes
-
Diwali is the festival of lights, but it's also the festival of first impressions. Your entrance is the first glimpse guests get of your festive spirit, and combining rangoli with inventive lighting can transform a simple doorway into a dazzling welcome.
THE CANVAS OF CELEBRATION
Rangoli is more than decoration, it's an invitation to positivity, prosperity, and good vibes. Traditionally crafted from coloured powders, flower petals, rice, or sand, rangoli patterns range from simple geometric shapes to intricate floral designs. Think of it as the stage on which your lighting will perform. Modern interpretations allow you to mix classic motifs with bold, contemporary twists, perfect for creating a festival entrance that’s uniquely yours. But why just limit yourself to colours and patterns when your creative flow can accomplish so much more.
