Simple Floral Design

For a beginner, it will be wiser to begin with a simple floral design. First, draw a small circle in the middle of the palm. Place petals around it, and include imbricated leaves growing from the flower. This design is basic but beautiful, and elegant, and can be worn for any occasion.

Leafy Vines

Make a vine pattern from your wrist and extend it to the fingers of your hand. From the central head draw a curve and on either side of the curve draw small leaves. This design is relatively easy to create and in particular, is quite pretty on the back of your hand.

Mandala

Mandala is an expanse of a circle and it means a universe. First start with a tiny circle in the middle of the palm. Paint layers of petals around this space as well as dots and lines over it. This design is complex but can easily be modified to suit the newcomers into quilting.

Heart Pattern

Draw the shape of a heart over your palm or your wrist. It can be filled with small dots, lines, or floral-like patterns for instance. This particular design is appropriate for occasions where romance and affection are desired and have to be displayed.

Peacock Feather

First, the work begins with the creation of a tear-drop: this forms the base of the feather. These features will include lines and curves to create the appearance of a feather. This design is perfect and is best when you want to give your mehendi a delicate feel.

Geometric Shapes

Cut triangles, and arrange them along with squares and circles to form geometry of some sort. This design looks elegant and trendy; thus, appropriate to wear on any casual occasion.

Bracelet Design

Scribble around your wrist with a bracelet-like pattern. Add small flowers, leaves, or geometric shapes for more glamor of the whole design. A  good way to ‘accessorize’ oneself without having to put on charms and trinkets.

Finger Tips

Draw two to four small dots, linear shapes, or small flowers on your fingertips. It is among the easiest and fastest methods to create and the style is perfect for those in quest of minimalist look.

Paisley Pattern

Drawing with teardrop begins from the center and draws complexity inside of it. Paisley as a design has always been prevalent and hence, is one of the most sought-after mehendi designs.

Butterfly

Draw a butterfly on the back of your hand or wrist using a mehendi cone. Add details of the wings and the body to make it look as real as possible. This design is casual and quite appropriate for a day of fun and enjoyment.
