Gilding - Glitter Body Art - Gilded Tribal Design


It is exciting to be able to offer dazzling temporary body art for those who want the beauty of henna designs without the commitment to a one to three week experience.

In addition to gilding, there is cocktail body art & embroidary body art as alternatives to henna tattoo. What I like about these art forms is the fluid style of henna is recreated with other mediums.
Here's a gilded tribal henna tattoo for the fingers. (Sometimes it's hard for people to choose a full hand tattoo.) The henna is the reddish brown stain, the rest is gold body powder, crimson body powder, black body paint & silver gel glitter to make the little diamonds.

This design stays right on the skin! The henna is the temporary stain, but the rest of the products (gels, paints & powders) are theater quality, so they will last until you wash them off.

Henna starts Saturday, April 21 at Midnight Sun.

It's finally warm enough to make a good henna paste on the porch, warm enough to show some skin, play in the sun & get some henna. Thanks much to all my good friends at Midnight Sun for welcoming me back this year. I will be doing henna most all sunny Saturday afternoons at 1055 Park Street in Jacksonville, Florida. (Historic Riverside District.) I usually start sometime after noon. My first day will be Saturday April 21.


You are welcome to stop by the shop and walk in for your henna, but it is a good idea to call first to be sure I'm in. As well, if you want a large design, or traditional henna, it may be better to make an appointment. You can reach me at (904) 993-7466.
I have lots of pattern books to choose from... but feel welcome to bring your own design.


Namaste, Ann George

Henna - a pregnant belly tattoo - tribal sun style

tribal sun tattoo in henna for pregnancy

Here's a photo I meant to post awhile ago.
I am so fortunate to have so many henna clients who choose wonderful designs that sometimes it is hard to know what to publish.


Here is a tribal sun for C ... and of course, her new baby. I mix a special henna paste for pregnant women.
It is basically the same as all others, but I double check the essential oils I have to be certain that none of them are contra indicated for pregnant women.


A few I avoid are cajeput and clove. I have seen many sites that suggestion that clove oil not be added to henna paste, but in my 5 years of experience.. a drop or two has not yet caused any problems.
