Hi All,

First want to say I'm soooo thankful for the henna site and the forum. I have been doing henna on and off for about 15+ add years. I have always done henna as a hobby and as activity that I enjoy. But recently, I wanted to try it out as business and I came across this site which was very informative as well as gave me a path to follow if I wanted to do henna as a business...

So, with all that said, I'm doing my first henna festival on Aug 15 for the Festival of India. I have never done anything like this!!... After reading almost all of the content on the henna site. I do have paste made. Have plenty of small and mid size henna patterns ready for the festival. My goal is to at least make the money I'm putting out for this festival, like the booth fee, henna material and time. So I'm excited and nervous. Expected turn out is to be 6000 people for the festival. Can anyone give any pointer on what I should consider for the festival like this?

I have look at the various festival list for the items to take. I will have 10x10 tent with booth inside. I have to take a look and see how to decorate the booth. Any suggestion on booth decoration would be appricated too..There are going to be 2 other henna artists offering henna services at the festival beside my self. What can I do to stand out? Any insight would be greatly appreciated...

Thank you again for providing this forum and access to henna info. Much appreciated and can't wait to get certify...

~ in love and in light ~
