Show and tell

I thought this would be a fun place to put up practice pieces or pics of what you just did. Just to get your ra-ra's going or get a critique if you like!

I'll start it off with mine from tonight. I'm warming up my hand for a gig, so it's not at "perfect" as I'd like and seeing how my old henna works for practice pieces. If it stains well, I'll put up photos of it once it's "developed".



Who's next?

Did this last night on my arm!

My hummingbird is gone

Must do something new!!!

Both are beautiful pieces!

I did this tonight after having a crappy night with a very cranky daughter. I'm not terribly happy with it, but it's certainly better then the face painting practice I've done today. (JUST got my very first paints today!)

Well Vampkat, I think it's awesome!!!

I agree with Linda!! Looks great!!

Thanks guys! I'm actually playing with this new henna powder. Last night I just could NOT sleep with this on so instead of leaving it on over night like I normally do I took it of after about 4-5 hours.

LOL!

That is usually when I henna myself! Late at night when I can't sleep! I'm sure that since I slept late this morning, tonight will be a late night! So hopefully I'll have a photo to share tomorrow!!! I'm thinking a peacock? Maybe.

Done yesterday on a friend. She chose the design from a tattoo website.

I did this peacock on my leg a few nights ago. Found the design on the henna page.

WOW! I have got to do some Henna!!! I have some in the freezer, maybe i'll pull it out and have a go!

That peacock is AMAZING!!!!
........just beautiful.....

Thank you! I'm wishing I had made the lines thicker, because of placement (my thigh) it's not very dark. A friend saw the photo and now wants me to do the exact same one on her back. Which made me swoon! I've been dying to do that design and now I have someone signing up for it! So once I get it onto her back, I'll share the photos here! My stuff always looks so sloppy when I do it on myself, so I can't wait to see it on her back!

SQUEEEEEE!

Sloppy.........hmmmm.....I see no "sloppy" at all lady!

Why....Thank You!

Done tonight on myself. Sooooooo wish I could do my right hand too!

Very very cool

Dixie,
That's REALLY pretty!!!

i have been checking these out and some sources online. how does one learn, find resources, stencils etc. did you all just get a book and give it a go?

is a great resource!

they have a "henna school kit" that is what I started out with, just to see if I could even do it! it comes with a disc that has numerous designs to start you off. along with most of the other stuff you will need to give it a go.

Dixie, I love the design!

I'll have to get some pics & post them here. I've done more henna this summer than ever before! Yippie!

Here's one I did recently (on myself). Really do wish I could get more henna gigs!
