Mehndi is a form of body art and temporary skin decoration usually drawn on hands or legs, in which decorative designs are created on a person's body, using a paste, created from the powdered dry leaves of the henna plant. It is a popular form of body art among the women of South Asia such as India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal, Maldives, and Sri Lanka, and resembles similar practices found in North Africa and the Middle East. This kind of body art is called Mehndi Design in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nepal. Whereas, in the West it is called Henna Designs. If you are attending a traditional Indian wedding or any other such occassion, or if you simply want to stand out in a crowd, these stick-on Mehndi items in glitter and various colors is a must in your collection.
I have enjoyed your paintings very much and with reasonable prices.
