Kundan rangolis

The latest fad is rangolis made out of kundan stones. How could I not try my hand at it? here's a step by step account of how I made my first kundan rangoli. Hope you enjoy looking at it, as much as I enjoyed making this.

Things needed:

1. OHP sheet
2. fabric glue
3.Kundan stones
4. gold coloured beaded chain
5. half pearls



1. Draw the desired shape on a OHP(transparent) sheet.

2. These are some stone used in the making of this rangoli. Different combinations can be used. I drew the design on paper first to get a feel of how it would look.



3. use fabric glue to stick the various pieces as per the design.

similarly the petals around the centre piece is crafted
I have made 6 such petals
Ta da!! the kundan rangoli is ready!!
