...Of course my designs were MUCH more simple than yours! I had each
of them hennaed on the back of the hand then had them hold their
hands still on top of a desk. That helped them hold still while the
paste dried enough that I could either wrap it or put New Skin to
hold the henna on for several hours. It was warm enough in the room
that we did not need supplimental heating.

I go back to the school tomorrow to give a lecture on the history of
henna and to demonstrate the application of henna paste for grades 4-
6th. I will give several recipes for them to try and how to care for
the stain once it's done. Wish I had fresh henna leaves to show them!
