Maternity Henna

Here's my beautiful cousin Becka!  She's due in August and I love the design she chose for her prego belly.  This was mine and Becka's first maternity design and there are some things I must remember for next time: 1) Have the mommy lay down or sit on a couch so you can work from all angles 2) Always, and I mean ALWAYS be aware of where the baby is kicking 3) And don't let anybody make the mommy laugh!  This design took me about an hour and forty-five minutes.  Good luck Becka!I can't wait to meet Mason.  He's lucky to have a momma as lovely as you are.  I hope you enjoy your henna and had a wonderful baby shower.  I love you both!

Henna Placement

The meaning behind henna designs is why I fell in love with henna.  From my very first tattoo I was hooked!  I would spend my time trying to find the meaning of the tattoo I had picked!  Not only do the different pictures have meanings, placement does as well!  According to Mehndi Mama palm designs are usually images of opening and offering, back of the hand designs protect us, and feet are a place through which we receive "divine contact."  My favorite henna placement is my palm.  I've always loved the way I feel with palm henna.  It can be hard to decide where you want your henna so I hope this helps and doesn't make the decision more difficult!!!  Where's your favorite henna location?

"Back of hand~acts as a shield-closing, defending, clenching, symbolizing protection."

"Palm~designs invoke images of opening and offering (usually sun, flower, mandala)"
"The feet are recognized as a point of divine contact, considered a holy junction, where Human being and Earth meet."
