another option is buying good crystal rhinestones and putting them on
with a skin safe adhesive. I also find it fun to use holigraphic
sticker paper and paper punches to mak my own bindi shapes. After I
punch them out I use a good hobby glue to decorate them with tiny gold
plated glass balls(and I mean tiny!) and teeny tiny rhinestones. I
have tons of fun and my nieces think I'm a pretty cool aunt!

: Hi everyone, I haven't been hennaing since summer ended, but I have
: been playing around with different ideas, and have a question. Does
: anyone incorporate diamond bindis in their work regularly? I have
: tried some that come in a package with a strip of sticky tape on the
: back that I cut out of the pre-formed design and used individually.

: They generally stay on me the whole night, if I remember not to
: scratch them off! I take them off before bed and reapply the next
: day. I apply them the day after the henna is done, usually ontop of
: a dot of henna. So, anyone know where I can get a long strip of
: these things at wholesale prices rather than cutting up a package
: that I buy retail?? I'm sure they can't be very expensive. I don't
: want the fancy bindis, just the tiny diamond dot that normally are
: white but sometimes come in colors too.
: By the way, should I refreeze the half bag of henna powder that I
: have left over from the summer? It already has been frozen once.
: Thanks!
