Hi Samantha, I can sure relate to your lousy weather situation.
Where I live is eqivalent to the very northern tip of the British
Isles... here in Northern British Columbia... and our weather has
been deplorable for the past 3 years at LEAST... doing henna outside
isn't even really an option these days. Last summer I had one
festival that was absolutely amazing, beautiful sunny weather, but
the rest of the summer, when I wanted to go to the local farmers
market every Saturday the weather SUCKED and I didn't bother. Same
thing this year. Lousy weather, no outside henna. I did a Midieval
Fair a few weekends ago, there were about a dozen people only (first
one in this area) I did 3 hennas and made $13.00 (one henna was a
huge dragon on a friend's back - will post at photo site soon) and it
was spurts of cold cloudy & sun. At least it didn't rain, which is
what we all expected. So I can't really help, but I sure can
relate!!! Peace & henna, Jen
