The gudi is a bamboo staff wrapped in silk and topped with an upturned copper kalash, raised at the window on the new year. The rangoli shows it at the centre of the design.

Can I copy these on a floor?

Yes. Each picture is a flat top-down design on a plain ground, so it can be laid in powder or petals or traced from the drawn chart.

What is the difference between the three styles?

Coloured powder has soft grainy edges, flower petals shows each petal as a small shape, and the drawn chart uses bold flat shapes with thin white lines.

Can I ask for a different motif?

Yes. Type the motif you want and it is drawn in the same three styles, though the result is a sample, not a promised design.

A rangoli for the doorstep on Gudi Padwa, the Marathi new year on the first day of Chaitra. These nine show three designs: a round rangoli with a gudi at its centre, a copper kalash inside a lotus, and a rising sun with neem sprigs. Each is drawn in coloured powder, in flower petals, and as a clean chart you can copy by hand. Type a different subject, such as a peacock, and the same three styles carry it.

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.
