Sketch it in, preview for aproval before you henna!Posted by Catherine Cartwright Jones on August 2, 2001 at 14:34:19: In reply to: Re: Stabilo posted by Lisa K on August 1, 2001 at 23:12:08: The great designs are in book #1 ... its just that the printing runwas sub-par. A perfect print run will cost more .. so it's not a bad idea to take advantage of this little printer's blunder! Several more pattern books are in the works, too! There'll be a Chinese Calligraphy pattern book and a masculine pattern book! If you can't find Stabilo pencils, get Farber Castel colored pencils ... the sort that you can draw on paper then brush a bit of water onto for watercolor effect. These are just colored pencils that are a bit water soluble. Sharpen up your pencil .. dip it in a little cup of water ... and draw directly on your henna client! Shanon used the stabilo's to draw directly on a client, then handed them a mirror to show them what their henna would look like ..and if they thought it was cool, she went ahead and hennaed, or changed something if they requested! Since the caj paste is a "no mistake" zone, sketching a pattern in first is a pretty damn good idea! With a fully matured paste (48 hours past mixing), it stains the SECOND it hits the skin!
