Captivating Eid Checkered Fill Mehndi Design for Full Hand

A captivating eid mehndi design providing full hand coverage, featuring geometric grid and petal arrangement. Rated as Expert, this pattern is perfect for Eid.

Full-hand designs run from the fingertips to the wrist, so allow extra time for application. Work from the wrist towards the fingers, or the other way round, so you never rest on wet paste. 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: Choose a design you can finish in one sitting; a single trail or tikki takes 15 to 30 minutes per hand. Keep the paste on overnight if you can, wrapping the hand loosely so the design does not smudge while you sleep.
