Ganesh rangoli designs: Ganesha face, modak plate, dot rangoli

Ganesh rangoli is the floor design drawn at the door or before the idol during Ganesh Chaturthi, and often a contest entry. These nine are seen from above: Ganesha's face with a spiral trunk, a plate of five modaks with durva grass, and a dot-grid Ganesha with a swastik. Each comes as a powder design, a flower design or a chalk outline. Type a different motif, such as a peacock, and the same three forms carry it.

• a doorstep design for the festival days
• a school or housing society rangoli contest
• a flower rangoli workshop for children
• a chalk outline to trace before a class

Frequently asked questions

Can I lay one of these in powder or flowers?

Yes. The powder version has flat color fields divided by a thin white line. The flower version uses rings of petals and leaves. Both are seen straight from above.

Is the chalk outline easy to trace?

The outline is a thin, uniform black line on white, with no fills and no shading, so it can be traced directly.

Can I change the design?

Yes. Type a different motif in your own words, such as diyas around the border. The result is a request, not a guaranteed match.

What shape are the designs?

Each is a square image, which suits a printed sheet or a phone screen.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
