Rangoli & Mandala Maker
Draw once and see it repeated all around — then fill it with colour, just like real rangoli.
At a glance
- Every line you draw is repeated 4, 6, 8, 12 or 16 times around the centre — with an optional mirror — so even a squiggle becomes a rangoli.
- Fill colour pours colour into a closed shape, like rangoli powder, in every symmetric copy at once.
- Surprise me creates a new design of petals, diamonds and dots in Diwali, Marigold, Peacock, Pastel or Kolam (white) colours — ready to colour or change.
- Choose the floor — terracotta, soil, slate, white or cream — and hide the guides when you’re done.
- Undo and redo (Ctrl + Z, Ctrl + Y), an eraser, and brush sizes from fine lines to thick strokes.
- Download a 1600 × 1600 PNG, with the floor colour or a transparent background — nothing is uploaded.

Rangoli, kolam and mandala
Rangoli is drawn on the floor at the entrance with coloured powder, rice, sand or flower petals for Diwali, Pongal, Onam and other festivals. Kolam (South India) and muggulu (Andhra Pradesh, Telangana) are usually white line patterns drawn around a grid of dots. Mandalas are circular designs with the same symmetry, used in art and meditation. All three are built from a pattern repeated around a centre — which is exactly what this tool does for you.
Tips for a beautiful design
Start with a small flower at the centre and work outwards in rings. Leave closed outlines so Fill colour has a shape to fill — a gap lets the colour leak out. Alternate warm and cool colours from ring to ring, and finish with white outlines or dots for the classic rangoli look. Print the design to use as a guide on the floor.
