The first thing for choosing a rangoli design for an occasion is that we have to think of the elements which relate to the event. In the picture below, we see Lord Krishna’s flute, which is an easy and nice idea for this festival. It is teamed up with two peacock feather designs which accessorize the design here and are also related to the element. First, outline the flute and the design.

There is a flute in the middle, feet depicting Lord’s Krishna feet and also there are many stories of Lord Krishna, who used to steal makhan during his childhood also known as Makhan chor. So the rangoli in which a vessel has fallen and is dripping with some liquid also depicts lord Krishna. The spilling of liquid butter, along with his flute and feet makes an amazing rangoli design.
