In reply to: Henna basic carry box... posted by Denise on May 13, 2001 at 17:56:33:

The gel pen idea sounds interesting. Somewhere, I can't remember
where, I saw the suggestion of using a very soft art pencil. I tried
using that to trace over drawings on regular paper, and rub them off
on my skin, which worked ok, but not great. If you have tried both,
which do you think works the best? I also read somewhere that
someone used tracing paper, or tissue paper? Does that work better
than regular paper? I would love suggestions, I've just started
doing henna on myself and it's fun. I just am better at drawing on
paper with a pencil than with paste on my skin... Thanks in advance
for any suggestions. :)
