Beginner's Henna Workshop

with Sharmila Karamchandani


In this Design & Wine workshop, learn the art of Henna temporary tattooing. 

~ Learn the History and science of Henna. 

~ Tips and techniques on mixing your own Henna that is natural and safe. 

~ A demonstration will be giving on how to fill the cones. You will make a design on either a hand template or you can do it on yourself or both.

~ A takeaway cone will be provided along with design templates to try doing your henna either on yourself, a friend or on the template. 

Henna is extremely therapeutic for both the doer and the one who receives. This will be an evening of relaxation and self-pampering for sure!
