Rangoli

Rangoli is an art form wherein designs are made on the floor, generally at the entrance of homes, especially during festivals, using coloured powder or flowers. 

The one above is made using coloured powder and the one below is made with flowers.

A sign that there is an ongoing festival!

Shubh Deepavali!

Today is Diwali aka Deepavali, the festival of lights in India. Like the Christmas markets in Europe  we have in Mumbai the Kandeel gully (Lantern lane) during this festival. This one is in Mahim/Matunga and one can buy or get made to order lanterns of different sizes and shapes to decorate one's home.
