to

donation.

: Lurkers welcome. I'll put your designs in anonymously if that's
what

country,

: Does this sound possible?

Instead of a design book how about a calendar, a henna artist's work
is featured every month and double duty as you keep track of your
bookings at the same time and there are companies that do calendars
for charity or organizations and businesses, I would look into that.
It is possible. I think a calendar is much more useful, everyone
needs a calendar. hallmark, banks and local business been doing this
for years, why not a henna artist calendar. Just a suggestion. good
luck... Bright Blessings, Christine
