Description
Diwali is the most celebrated holiday in India – the Celebration of Lights. Families decorate the front door stoop with Rongoli – patterns of colored sand and flowers.
Event Details
These Rongoli are like Mandalas created to signify wholeness. Mandalas can be simple or complex patterns, emanating from a central point.Paper Embroidery involves creating complex looking designs similar to string art. It’s a perfect medium for beautiful mandalas. We’ll use embroidery floss which allows an extraordinary range of color combinations for gorgeous designs. And, unlike the sand Rongoli, our paper embroidery mandalas provide long-lasting beauty.
