Paisleys & Swirls Design Workbook

Practice your henna skills with 18 pages of original Paisleys & Swirls designs, created to help you build confidence, improve precision, and have fun designing!

The workbook features a removable sliding binding, allowing you to easily turn the book into loose leaf pages while you practice. When you’re ready to put your workbook back together, simply slide the binding back on!

A plastic sleeve is included with your workbook. Place the design of your choice inside the sleeve, grab your henna cone, and trace the design directly onto the plastic.

Please note: Henna cones are not included with the workbook. You can purchase henna cones separately from our shop if needed.

After tracing, please wipe the henna off immediately to help prevent staining. If using a chemical henna cone, the stain may set into the plastic or potentially seep through onto the paper underneath. Please use caution when working with chemical henna. Please note: all henna sold by Paisleys and Swirls is natural; formulated by Naqiya without any dyes or chemicals.

The workbook contains 18 pages of designs, with many pages featuring 2 to 3 designs per page. Each page also features a unique decorative border that is itself a henna design! You’re encouraged to use these borders as additional practice, giving you another level of henna elements and styles to explore.

Why practice this way?

Henna practice is a wonderful way to step away from scrolling and spend time creating something hands on. Instead of constantly looking at a screen and trying to follow someone else’s design, this workbook gives you the freedom to trace, experiment, and discover what works naturally for you.

Repetition helps build muscle memory, allowing you to become familiar with different styles, strokes, and design elements. With practice, you can take what you’ve learned and begin putting your own spin on them, eventually developing a henna style that’s uniquely yours!

This workbook is designed to help you learn and practice a variety of beautiful henna styles and pieces so you can build your skills, get creative, and wow your friends and family with your designs!
