Personalized Storytelling Mehndi Designs

A special design for the Karwa Chauth festival. This client wanted to include a scene of the moon sighting ritual, which I drew on one palm, with 'Happy Karwa Chauth' written on the other.

A close up of a groom portrait on the bride's hand. Capturing likenesses in henna is a special skill that makes any bridal design truly one of a kind. I teach the fundamentals of portraiture in my advanced workshops.

This video shows the process of creating a bridal figure, from the initial outline to the final shaded and detailed portrait. It's a great example of how a simple sketch transforms into a piece of art.

The back of the hands can tell a story too. This design features two figures in a decorative frame, surrounded by floral patterns. It's a beautiful way to add a personal touch.

I was honored to create this piece for a client's 25th wedding anniversary. We included the text '25 Sparkling Years' in a special band on her arm, surrounded by celebratory elephant motifs.

Another sweet design for a baby shower. This one features tiny baby footprints in the center of one palm and a 'Mattu to be' design on the other, surrounded by delicate floral mandalas.

This engagement design includes the couple's initials 'A' and 'N' in a decorative diamond shape on the arm. It's a subtle but meaningful way to personalize your henna.

This bridal arm band features a bride being carried in a palanquin, or doli. This is a very traditional and emotional scene from Indian weddings, and I love capturing it in henna.

A themed arm band design for a bride who is a classical dancer. The central motif is a pair of ghungroos, or ankle bells, inside a decorative circle, showing her passion for dance.
