Ooooh It's Good To Be Back...'Wow Wah Wee Wah!'

   Hellooo all! Wow, It's been a while! I must say...I've missed this and It's sooo good to be back!!! Im sure you can feel the electricity of my excitement through your keyboards, better still, from my excessive use of the exclamation mark! To mark this happy occasion I have titled this blog as my hubby-to-be and my most memorable quote from the man himself, Borat! And yes, i said hubby-to-be! I'm getting married! Hence the lack of attention to two of my greatest passions, henna tattooing and blogging about henna tattooing (I'm not blaming you sweetie I promise!) :)
   Ok so moving away from Borat and all things not relevant to henna designs whatsoever, I have created a new henna design...see below!!!
 

Ideal for Bridal Henna...
  
Special Occasions...

Ahh who needs an occasion to wear henna!?
   You may have noted I mentioned earlier that I'm getting married! Now this will sound a little cliche, cheesy, 'filmy' or whatever you may call it but yes, I've found the one and we're getting married this summer! :) It is the most exciting, uplifting yet bitter sweet moment in my life...moving on to a new beginning with someone so very special yet leaving behind my most treasured posessions of all, my family and friends. This phase in any woman/mans life can be full of tremendous emotions. I know how I'm feeling at the moment and that is the need to have my treasures around me at all times leading upto the big day...rather a dull feeling If I'm honest! However, one ornament which brings heaps of colour to an asian bride is henna! I look at henna on a bride as an ornament, It decorates and enhances the beauty of an individual in it's own very unique way.
   Traditionally, a bengali bride is said to have her hands adorned with henna by her sister-in-laws. As the art of henna is very dear to my heart It's only natural I will only have my hands adorned by someone who is also very dear to my heart, my best friend Rumena Begum. She is also a very accomplished henna artist and the added bonus is that it won't cost me a penny! :) Jokes aside, having my best friend adorn my hands with henna would be so very personal to me, as I'm sure it would be for many women out there! 
   I would love to have henna tattooed all the way upto my shoulders on both arms however I'm sure Rumena would think I was slightly absurd and will be there for days!! So I think I will be going for a design simillar to the one i've designed above..Let me know what you think guys and as ever it was lovely typing to you! Adios for now! Bip xx
