5 Weeks out!!!
We are all so excited :)

We're putting word out now to sign up for a henna party and/or appointment! We'll come to your room, meet you in a central spot, do it up in the art room...whatever! We'll be staying in a host hotel this year so we can go as late as needed. We'll have sign up sheets at our bazaar table and we'll post our cell phone numbers as the date gets closer.

To see some of our designs, go to our henna images page.

If you're allergic to eucalyptus oil, you're probably out of luck. Many henna artists use eucalyptus in their henna paste. What you CAN do is a little test patch. If it starts to burn, itch, etc, wipe it off immediately before any harm is done. If it's something you can stand for 30 minutes, then give it a try.

That might be terrible advice. LOL

Doing a patch test is generally good advice. However, I am allergic enough that I'm not able to handle the leaves or stems of the plant, so I think it's best for me not to attempt this. Bummer! Thanks for the info and quick response!

Do you know if you're allergic to tea tree oil? I can make a batch without eucalyptus oil. It's main and most common purpose is for smell. Henna + lemon juice = nasty odor.

And I've been told I'm crazy, so take that with a grain of salt. ;)

As far as I know, I'm not. That would be awesome!

And about the crazy, you're in good company here. Sanity is boring.
