Demonstration on
Making Natural Holi
Colors
On the nineteenth of March, middle school attended an assembly
on eco-friendly and healthy Holi colors. The main presenter,
Suparna ma’am, took us through the process of creating a warm
yellow color, which was made from a variety of ingredients
which gave the powder it’s sunshiny color. From marigolds to
sandalwood oil, all the delicious aromas were amazing to smell.
We were allowed to purchase these fragrant powders in
packets. Red- made from rose petals, orange and yellow, which
possessed similar ingredients, green- spinach water, and pink, for
which they used soft flowers of the same color. Reflecting on
this, it will be nice to play Holi with no fear of rashes or colors
‘acidentally’ splashing on my eyes. These powders also don’t
have that chemical-y, powder-y smell. It smells nature, and I
honestly prefer that better.
