Colour and candlelight...

Last night my henna buddy Shannon and her lovely man came over for dinner.  I dressed the house up in its candlelit finest since Shannon is my tribal sister from way back, and she always enjoys a bit of nutso effort in the decoration department...

Indian lanterns...

Goddess Tara...

Tara, Indian woodblocks, Tibetan Mala beads and one of my henna designs on a river stone...

Nomadic Tara henna candle burns long into the night...

Mr Tara built this entryway into our house (so clever!)...

Dinner table all set with vintage linens and Indian lanterns...

It turned a normal old Monday into something really fun and I even had my hand hennaed (such a treat for me since I'm always hennaing other people)....  I did the glitter one on Shannon's wrist with my new peacock coloured glitter...

I love this design by Shannon - so special!

Phoebe was all worn out from having people in the house - since she's a shelter cat she can be prone to being a scaredy cat when people come over - afterwards she collapsed in her blanket on the sofa and snoozed the night away...

Happy days at Nomadic Tara HQ...
