Description
When my girls were growing up, I wanted them to learn and enjoy the beautiful Indian tradition of making rangoli — but I also wanted something that was easier and less messy for kids.
I regularly made rangoli during Diwali and other festivals too, and living in the U.S., I got tired of sweeping and vacuuming rangoli powder from the floor. No matter how carefully I made it, the cleanup seemed to take forever.
That’s when I created the Mess Free Rangoli Mat — a reusable rangoli base designed to make this beautiful tradition easier for both kids and adults.
This version features a beautiful lotus shape, making it especially meaningful for Diwali, puja, festive decor and Indian celebrations.

Traditional Rangoli Look With Less Mess
Each rangoli mat is made from thick foam that is hand-assembled to create raised sections.
Simply fill the lotus design with rangoli sand or another decorative material and place it wherever you want to display your rangoli.
You get the colorful look of traditional rangoli with defined borders — without having to create the design directly on your floor.

Reusable Again and Again
When your celebration is over, simply empty the rangoli sand, gently clean the mat and store it for next time.
Reuse it for Diwali, pujas, Indian weddings, festivals, cultural events and family celebrations year after year.
Waterproof & Floatable
The foam mats are waterproof and lightweight, so they can also be used to create beautiful floating rangoli decorations.
If you have pets or small children around the house, lightly secure the mat to the floor to help keep it in place.
