Gorgeous Eid Mandala Mehndi Design for Foot

An intricate eid mehndi design tailored for the foot, featuring ribbon weave and feather stroke. Rated as Expert, this pattern is perfect for a wedding.

The soles take henna as well as the palms do, while the top of the foot stains lighter. Stay seated and avoid walking until the paste has dried completely. This is a detailed pattern usually done by an experienced artist; allow plenty of time and work in small sections.

On Chaand Raat, women and girls gather at home or visit market stalls where artists apply quick designs late into the night. Because many people get their mehndi done in one evening, Eid designs are usually quicker and lighter than bridal ones.

Application tips: Keeping the skin warm while the paste is on helps the colour develop. Apply Eid mehndi the evening before so the stain has time to darken by morning.
