First Friday • Henna Tattoo at The Midnight Sun

Do you love body decoration.. with no pain and no commitment? Them you might want to stop by The Midnight Sun this Friday, June 3, 2011 from 4 PM until.......

It's First Friday in Five Points. A great time to see all the new shops! See all the new gemstones and jewels at The Midnight Sun.. and adorn your self with henna tattoo.

The ancient body art of henna adapts well to wester culture, if you just are able to make a few momentary adjustments.

Henna paste goes on wet ( as seen in the picture ) and then dries to a wearable pattern that stays on the skin as long as you are able to keep some care not to brush it off too quickly.

The henna paste available this Friday is fresh ( 2010 crop ) Organic Rajhisthani henna, hand blended by Ann George of Spirit Vision Henna tattoo. In the spirit of Art Walks..... small hennas are $10. The more traditional designs start at $15 an each. Visit the FAQ page FMI. See you there.

It's Henna Tattoo Time! Saturday 3.27.10 at The Midnight Sun

Spirit Vision Henna in Five Points is happy to announce that the weather is finally warm enough to make hanna paste. In fact, a lovely mixture is sitting in the afternoon sun, the dye has released, and everyone can enjoy fragrant, rich color in their first henna tattoo of the season.

Ann George and the artists of Spirit Vision Henna will offer tattoo at 1055 Park Street, in The Midnight Sun on Saturday 3.27.10. Please come by after 1PM to browse pattern books and pick your design. If this is your first henna experience.... please visit the FAQ page for answers to all your first time questions.

We specialize in traditional henna tattoo, but are available for special requests. You are welcome to call 904-993-7466 to schedule an appointment if you like. Henna will be offered Saturday on a first come, first served basis. Henna tattoo prices start at $15. The size and style of tattoo you choose determines the price.

As the weather warms up, henna may also be offered on Fridays by appointment. It takes at least 24 hours to create a good henna paste, so last minute henna requests are hard to fill. Please call ahead for henna on Fridays, or other days of the week.

If you would like to book Spirit Vision Henna for a private party, our artists are available to come to you. This year, we are pleased to announce that Arvid Smith, an accomplished sitar player, will be available to play for you if you would like to provide live music for your henna gathering.

Please note the image above is of henna paste on the skin... so the tattoo appears black. We do not offer black henna tattoo.. there is no such thing. We offer first quality henna paste made with Jamila henna powder, essential oils and traditional herbs and spices. The finished color will be some shade of reddish brown, or as dark as black cherry red if applied to the palms and properly cared for.

Henna tattoo will not look like inkwork.  Henna, or mehandi, is it's own unique art form, and our artists have studied and practiced to provide you a traditional henna experience.

After care information is online at Spirit Vision Henna. We hope you enjoy your visit to the site.

Henna Tattoo from a Bridal Shower - Ankle Bangle

I was very happy to be invited to do henna tattoo for guests at an intimate bridal shower this weekend.
The decorations were fabulous! The mood was so lovely.. and as there were only a few guests present, everyone was able to choose an intricate henna design if they wanted one.
Of course, some simple designs are just as lovely as the more intricate ones.
However, I was very happy to be able to do this bold henna tattoo in an anklet cuff style.
What I invite you to notice is that the bold style of this design is a perfect completment to the clients ankle.
She was delighted... and I was happy to offer this modified traditional design.
For events where it is reasonable to expect that most people will not choose to have henna applied to the hands I often make the paste more liquid.. giving it the greatest opportunity to stain the skin.
I was also very happy to have my beautiful assistant on hand to apply lemon sugar to all the designs as they were drying.
This additional service really seemed to help the guests feel more pampered!

If you live in North East Florida an would like to hostess a henna party, please feel welcome to contact the Studio at (904) 993-7466.
