For over 5,000 years, the people of Africa, the Middle East and India have practiced the beautiful and mysterious art of painting on the body with preparations using the henna plant. This artform is called henna art, or mehendi.

Traditionally, henna and the Mehndi artform is an important part of wedding ceremonies. The hands and feet of the bride are decorated by professional henna artists. The intricate and beautiful designs cover her hands and feet in a lacy manner. It is common belief that henna brings good luck. Ornamenting the bride's hands and feet with henna is believed to bring love, health, prosperity, safety in childbirth, protection from harmful spirits and assure happiness in death as well.
