Janmashtami Kolam



A Welcome for Little Krishna – Janmashtami Kolam at the Doorstep


This Janmashtami kolam at the entrance is more than decoration — it's an invitation.

The design features Lord Krishna's most beloved symbols: the bansuri (flute) and the mayil iragu (peacock feather). The flute represents divine music and love, while the peacock feather on Krishna's crown reminds us of beauty, humility and joy.

Tiny white footprints and flowers. These are Krishna paadam, the little feet of baby Krishna. The tradition is to draw these from the doorway leading inside, as if Bala Krishna himself has just entered the home, bringing blessings, happiness and prosperity.

Free hand kolam. Create even circle using a large bowl or plate.
