: : : I would love some info on how to find stencils to help
: : : with the tattoo designs. I am planning to do this for
: : : first time on a friend for her wedding. I don't know how
: : : good I'll be at drawing the designs freehand. Don't worry
: : : I'm going to practice on myself first!

: : : I welcome any suggestions, especially any product info
: : : for northern California.

: : So would I.
: : I've been experimenting with mehndi for a week
: : now, and I would say it is difficult to control
: : the thickness of the lines. Tonight I'm going
: : to try wrapping the lines with saran wrap in an
: : effort to get them to remain on for more than an
: : hour, to see if they get any darker that way.
: : Mine are moderately dark and fade within a few
: : days.

: Ok, i had this CRAZY idea and it probably wont work-
: but someone should make "Glove" stencils-
: like dr's disposable rubber gloves... u kno?
: and make little rubber foot "Booties" too with srencils cut out
: people can put on the gloves or socks then paint on the henna
: just hafta get them so that they wont leak and cut off the circulation..

: it would be a nice kilda lil thing... if u get what im trying to say :)

Try using a pastry bag with a fine tip and use lemon sugar then be sure to add heat Its the Key
