About Festive & Occasion Mehendi
Why I Love Mehendi
Mehendi is more than a design for me - it's a way of celebrating the people and moments that matter most. I always say, "Darker the mehendi, deeper the love," and honestly, seeing that deep stain after a day or two? Bohot maza aata hai (it's so satisfying).
Custom Mehendi for Every Occasion
- Baby Shower Mehendi: I really enjoy doing baby shower mehendi designs that tell your story. Portraits, tiny baby feet, even your favourite cartoon animals - kuch bhi chalega (anything goes). Once, a client wanted the Eiffel Tower, and we did it!
- Karwa Chauth & Teej: For Karwa Chauth portrait mehendi, I often draw scenes like looking at the moon through a sieve, or do couple portraits. Teej festival mehendi patterns get a bit more traditional with elephants, lotuses, jaal work, and playful name hiding.
- Diwali & Other Festivals: Festive mehendi doesn’t have to be OTT. I can do elegant floral patterns for Diwali, or simple traditional motifs if you want something quick yet festive.
My Style
- Custom Portraits: Drawing faces is my jam. From a glowing mom-to-be to your whole family, I love capturing people in mehendi.
- Traditional Details: Peacocks, paisleys, domes - I can go as classic or as quirky as you want.
- Your Story, Your Style: I always listen first. If you have a symbol or theme in mind, let’s make it happen, no matter how hatke (unique) the idea.
I’m happiest when you see your idea on your hands and love it.
