*~Phase One Henna Tattoo*~

Uh Oh, don't think this is going as planned. I read the directions, spent hours looking at designs on a site that offered "free tattoo designs" only to find out in the end it's free to look but you can't print out the designs without paying top dollar so then I spent another hour or so drawing out my own designs deciding on butterflies and vines for their simplicity in drawing out on my own.
The henna kit came with a squeeze bottle applicator but it comes out so thick that I decided to use a fine paintbrush instead when I started the design on my foot. Didn't think it went on thick enough so I decided I must have to use the applicator and the thickness must be necessary but now I have a globby mess on my wrist.....I'll post pics when it's all done but I honestly think this isn't going to be what I had in mind LOL.  I have no control over the detail that I wanted.


 These could work..............

 Okay, this doesn't look ANYTHING like the design I put on paper!!  LOL
 Globby & Goopy
 At this point I don't even know what the heck to do with this thick glop....Can you tell I have OCD and wash my hands probably 100 times a day, couldn't use any lotion prior to application though.
Not the delicate lacey floral design I had in mind!!

I got some emails from some of you for info so keep an eye on here for the final pictures & results. We'll learn this together!!        ~Kriss~
