Freehand Flower Kolam
Small Freehand kolam with a flower as the base design. As usual after the base design got struck and some how managed to move on with some common extensions which are prominently seen in my previous k.

Trace Concentric Guidelines on the Floor
Anchor a piece of thread at your center point and lightly trace 3 to 5 concentric circular guidelines with faint chalk on the clean floor.
Place the Central Core Flower
Position a magnificent whole lotus blossom or a tight, dense rosette of vibrant yellow marigold petals at the very center as the visual anchor.
Layer Concentric Petal Rings Outward
Fill each concentric ring with contrasting fresh petals (orange marigold, pink rose, purple orchids, and white jasmine), packing petals closely for a rich velvety texture.
Crown Perimeter with Oil Lamps
Surround the outer floral rim with dark green mango leaves or bilva leaves. Place glowing brass or terracotta oil lamps (agal vilakku) at cardinal compass points.
