No, I don't do temporary tattoos
Remember this (three-way) trade involving Henna Tattoos that I did ages ago, as part of the big 375 T-shirts trade?
Well, it's amazing that out of all the trades that I have done to date, this one has had the biggest echo, if I can call it that.
It has led to me getting phoned and asked if I do temporary tattoo's quite regularly.
I just had such a call right now, where the lady was looking to partner with someone to do temporary tattoos for a big event.
(And now I'll probably get even more calls after writing this post *dooh!*)
The person I keep referring all these inquiries to is Nikita, as she can do some pretty amazing stuff with Mehndhi. And I did trade with her for the tattoo party.
It just amazes me how people keep finding me and strike up the conversation as if I am in the tattoo business. #newcareercallingperhaps?
onematchstick Henna Tattoo Picnic Party
Date: Saturday 1 October 2011
Time: midday till sunset
Where: A spot of grass in the Johannesburg Botanical Gardens by Emmarentia Dam
Street: Olifants Rd. Emmarentia
What:
Help me get closer to my office to help entrepreneurs
By RSVPing to this Springtime Picnic Party
And pre-buying a henna tattoo that you will receive at the Party
Why is the party only in October?
So that it'll be warmer and you can show off your henna tattoo for the few weeks that it'll last!
What's the cost?
Just R75.75 if you want to be one of the 20 people who get a tattoo. Payment has to be made now (so that I can trade up sooner) and it’s a first come first served basis for the tattoos!
What to bring?
Picnic stuff: baskets of nibbles and drinks, blankets to lie on, frisbees, friends, sunscreen, funky hats and good cheer!
Background:
Nikita is a Freelance Journalist, Photographer, Mehndhi Artist and onematchstick fan who has made me an offer for some of my T-shirts, in one of my 3-way trades for my onematchstick project.
She is offering a 20 person henna tattoo party with photographs (which will be saved to disc and given to the host a week after the party and you’ll get to tag yourself on facebook). This means that she will do one henna temporary tattoo per person for up to 20 people at a party.
This offer has a total value of R1515, which is what it will cost for 8 of my Springleap T-shirts, which is what Nikita wants in return for doing the 20 henna tattoos. It’s all part of my tenth trade for onematchstick.
That's a cost of just R75.75 per person!
So let's get ready for Summer and start planning our Springtime Picnic Party
All are welcome to attend.
Only 20 tattoo's though to first 20 people who contact me and pay for their tattoos!
If you want a tattoo then email me on onematchstick@gmail.com or tweet @telana or sms 0837302979.
Otherwise just RSVP here on Facebook and we'll see you on that patch of grass in October! :)
