: : Okay, so I've been kinda waiting for it to happen... : : I have a floor program to do on campus for a girl who is Arabic. : She : : would like a ten minute presentation before the henna starts : flowing. : : I know little bits of traditions (peacocks, hidden groom initials, : : etc) but I lump that in my "general nifty Knowledge about henna" : : section of my brain. I would like to be able to share more : traditions : : that are specifically Arabic and also not insult her somehow. : : Suggestions? : : Thanks, : : Rosie : Yes there are, Arabic designs that are very bold (lots of henna is : used) floral motifs and vines, or you can do moroccan which is : geometric. In Islam hennaing is allowed. I have seen butterflies on : Arabic designs and verus the dainty intricate Indo-Pak(for short) : designs. Arabic are bold full of life and lots of shading. I hope : this was helpful good luck, Henna won't offend her, she may be more : delighted and you can always ask her. If you want details on Arabic : traditions you'd have to ask Catherine.... blessings, Christine
