: Dear Carrie, : Thnks for the follow up stamp info I cant wait to try it. But whats : the rubber band trick. I take it you put a rubber band around the : wrist. Is this so you can have a guide to mark with pen or do you : leave it to make an impression on the skin. What a cleaver thing .I : must have missed this one before.Please let me know any helpful hints : so I dont cut off anyones circulation! : Thanks, : theadora Take the rubber band and put it around the wrist or ankle, about 1/4 inch CLOSER to the end of the extremity than where you want the design. I will either do a row of henna dots around the wrist/ankle, or if the band isn't too tight, I might leave it on until I'm done with the whole thing. If the band is closer to the fingers or toes than the henna design, you just pull it off. If you make a mistake like I did the first time and put the band higher on the arm, you'll have a real fun time trying to get it off over the wet henna paste. This can be done with little teeny bands on the fingers as well, though truly it is not near so difficult to get rings to line up correctly, except maybe around the thumb. Carrie
