Simple art of henna on the palms of my 5 years daughters favorite doll & art work. It's difficult to express her happiness after getting that done. It's a simple art work not very complicated patterns gives me the feel of longing to my childhood. I enriched the warm tones to add that feel even more.

Use of henna for body art has enjoyed a recent renaissance due to improvements in cultivation, processing, and the emigration of people from traditional henna-using regions. For skin dyeing, a paste of ground henna (either prepared from a dried powder or from fresh ground leaves) is placed in contact with the skin from a few hours to overnight. Henna stains can last a few days to a month depending on the quality of the paste, individual skin type, and how long the paste is allowed to stay on the skin.

Cute! Even now I can only make circular henna designs because the paisley shaped stuff is way out of my league.
