Henna Hands

Imaan invited her mum to come into our class and do Henna on the girls hands. We all got different designs on our hands and they all look really cool. The reason that she came in is because in our class, we are learning about India. All the henna looked really cool. When she was putting it on us, the Henna paste was very cold. After it was put on us, we had to wait till it was dry. For me, it took about 1 and a half hours for it to dry and then for it to fall off. When the brown paste fell off, it went bright orange.
Here is an image of it when it was brown and wet.
