Mehendi In Winter, Mandala Pattern

A mehendi during cold months is not the best idea, coz of outerwear. But if one is ready to stay in the mall for 30-50 min before the design gets dry, then why not 😊

Puchaechum (부채춤) Mehendi

Fancy mehendi by my friend's sketch. My friend is a professional artist and is very much fond of Korean culture, particularly dancing. Her source of inspiration was traditional Korean fan dance puchaechum (부채춤). So mehendi is mostly made of half-mandalas resembling open fans, design of those fans is made by me.

  

Latest Mehendi

I've been training myself a lot on making mehendi. The first one is a total copy of Sonika Verma's design in Instagram where I tagged her and got a very nice positive feedback.)) Others are mine. I've been also trying white henna "Golecha", just for a change.

     

            

     

 

Mehendi For My Friend

I've been a bit busy these days, disappearing in the garden mostly and doing some housework. On one evening my friend and neighbour asked me for a mehendi. That was, um, almost night but still I fulfilled the wish and applied mehendi on her hand and leg. ^_^

Mehendi Sketch

That's what I do when I just want to practice mehendi a bit. ^_^ I take a big sheet of paper and make an outline of my own hand. Then fill this shape with mehendi design. ^_^

Mehendi Just For Practice ^_^

This set is made to see how the new mehendi paste would behave. ^_^  I deliberately tried it on foot because skin is soft and thin there, and usually mehendi is pale and doesn't last long. But seems like this one won't say good bye too soon. ^_^

1. Right after application
2. Two hours after, henna is peeled off, and mustard oil is thoroughly applied above the pattern which immediately gave bright pumpkin colour.
3. Two hours more, and the stain seems good. ^_^

These days I was making simple and light summer mehendi designs for feet and hands. Those are also for training because I've been having a long break...

Sangeet Mehendi on My Hand

My mehendi hand. As far as I remember, this is called sangeet design. I actually recreated Indian henna artist Sonika's design (Instagram: @sonikashennaart). She's brilliant and is getting lots of bridal orders. Was very happy to get a repost of this piece and positive feedback from Sonika. ^_^

Mehendi

This mehendi is applied with henna cone made by me, and it's not my invented design, it's a copy. Any beginner should copy things first to make his own pieces. ^_^

I'm deeply satisfied with the outcome, really. Even though it's not totally my creativity, anyway I've done it using henna cone made by myself.))

Palm. Quilling by Yulia Brodskaya

A wonderful quilling work by my fellow-countrywoman Yulia Brodskaya.
To me, it resembles mehendi a lot. ^_^
