Mandala Monday – Simple Mandala Mehndi Design by Om Henna Om

Our tutorial today is on how to create a simple mandala mehndi design by Om Henna Om!.

According to WikipediaMehndi or “Mehendi” or henna is a paste that is created from the powdered leaf of the henna plant and is made into designs for men and women. Mehndi is derived from the Sanskrit word mendhikā. The use of mehndi and turmeric is described in the earliest Hindu Vedic ritual books. It was originally used for only women’s palms and sometimes for men, but as time progressed, it was more common for men to wear it. 

Mehndi in Indian tradition is typically applied during special Hindu weddings and Hindu festivals like Karva Chauth, Vat Purnima, Diwali, Bhai Dooj and Teej. In Hindu festivals, many women have Henna applied to their hands and feet and sometimes on the back of their shoulders too, as men have it applied on their arms, legs, back, and chest. For women, it is usually drawn on the palm, back of the hand and on feet, where the design will be clearest due to contrast with the lighter skin on these surfaces, which naturally contain less of the pigment melanin.”

Mandala Monday – How to Crochet Mandala Dreamcatcher by Naztazia

How to Crochet Mandala Dreamcatcher by Naztazia is our tutorial for today. This is what she has to say on Youtube about this video:

“Donna Wolfe from Naztazia http://naztazia.com shows you to crochet a mandala or dream catcher with yarn and a hula hoop. This works great as an indoor decoration or outdoors for a yarn bomb event (urban graffiti).”

“This is more of an intermediate or advanced crochet pattern. You will need to know how to crochet the following stitches before starting this project: single crochet, double crochet, treble (triple) crochet (wrap your yarn around twice before inserting your hook), double treble (wrap your yarn around three times before inserting your hook), slip stitch and slip knot.”

I hope you enjoy learning how to create this beautiful dreamcatcher.
