What kind of henna do you like best?

I have a henna offering for many of the special events, changes and celebrations in a woman's life and Henna for fun. I love abstract, asymmetrical - symmetrical designs, as well as objects, like trees, animals & nature. Ideally when creating a design, my subject & I partner in selecting various elements, how they interact and their significance. When looking at the body of my work it is east to see similar parts or flavors between past design, it is un mistakenly clear, each is completely unique & personal.

The place to start is where (on you) and why are you getting tattooed; click on a picture (below), a panel will appear below, see what designs women created and get more details, plus a link to signup for your own (or someone you love's) Henna Pampering & Commemorative Photos, with SarahKate.

  • Pregnancy Henna

    pregnancy henna tattoos ~ custom body art created spontaneously for mothers to celebrate pregnancy ~ art and photography by SarahKate Butterworth

    Making the decision to become a parent is a wonderful choice to be celebrated!

    A henna pampering session honoring pregnancy begins with selecting design elements that move you, and I will create an original design spontaneously for you. If you let me know your design ideas ahead of time, I am happy to do some artistic research to find some unique ways to represent the elements you have in mind. Recline in my special chair in my home studio to be adorned with sweet smelling henna, with medicinal properties that include being soothing to your nerves. The process usually takes about 2 hours and includes photographs when you are freshly painted as well as when the henna is peaking in color ~ 2 or 3 days later.

  • Postpartum Henna

    Postpartum Henna Pampering can stand alone or be part of a Pregnancy + Postpartum Henna Pampering package.  For mamas of new babies, we are happy to come to you for the Henna pampering and photographs.    Postpartum Henna Pampering starts, with the development of your design and where you are going to want me to paint you. Women who've had Pregnancy Henna with me, often wish to continue a design, or we work together to create a new special design, just for you.   Postpartum Henna is normally for the hands, hands all the way up, as a sleeve and we can do your feet which feels great and is really fun.  When it comes to painting shoulders or near breasts  I have an offering Henna Papmering for Nursing Mamas which is more suited for a little older babies who can go without nursing for more that 3 -4 hrs while the henna dries.

  • Breastfeeding

    breastfeeding body art ~ full chest henna tattoo designs ~ art and photography by SKB ~ SarahKate Butterworth

     Breastfeeding Henna Pampering is a fun way to celebrate the special bond developed during this brief time.   Nursing is a unique relationship, shared between mother and child(ren), it is clearly obvious that this relationship is at best misunderstood by some people.  For mamas of new babies, we are happy to come to you for the Henna pampering and photographs.    Breastfeeding Henna Pampering starts with the development of your design and where you are going to want me to paint you.  Women who've had Pregnancy Henna with me often wish to continue a design motif, or we work together to create a new design. The painting takes about 2 hours, and then the paste needs to sit on your skin for 4 to 6 hours ~ without being picked off by your baby. Breastfeeding Henna is more suited for a little older babies who can go without nursing for more that 5 hours while the henna is applied & dries.

  • Parties

    henna party ~ body art to celebrate ~ tattoos and photography by SKB ~ SarahKate Butterworth

    Henna parties can be a tremendous amount of fun! It's an opportunity for women to gather together and celebrate ~ pregnancy, bridal showers,  birthdays, coming of age, etc. What a great party favor! I am happy to host gatherings in my home of up to 10 women, or travel to your location to adorn the guests in your home. Henna parties last 2+ hours, and in 2 hours I can adorn 3 girls arms (such as in the photo to the left), or I could do small designs for 50 people. When I go to a baby shower to adorn a mama and her friends, it can take 2 to 3 hours, depending on how many guests and the size of the tattoos. Henna parties include 2 hours of adornment. Women are welcome to return for photos 2 or 3 days later when the henna is peaking.

We can't thank you enough! My time with you was some of the most precious I've taken for myself during this pregnancy. It allowed me to take time to surrender and really savor what is unfolding. Your ability to capture our story, in the beauty you did, was something I will treasure for a long time. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your translation through art. ....Thank you for including my family. Sunny has been in awe of the henna from the moment I came home with the mini lotus blossom. It really is such a gift that you are able to adorn women in this way.
