The easiest way to create henna simple designs is to do it yourself. The leaves of the henna plant are dried and then ground into a powder, the powder is then mixed with a liquid like hot water, eucalyptus oil, or clove oil, and made into a paste. The paste is put into a cone or applicator bottle, which is then used to apply the paste to the skin. The longer the design or pattern is allowed to dry, the darker the stain will be.
