Glittering Greens

The soothing green color is found in abundance in nature. It represents compassion, purity and harmony. It increases our sensitivity and has a calming and healing effect, in its natural and herbal form.

Gulmohar, spinach, coriander or mint leaves can be dried and ground to get a rich green gulal.
Crush the tender leaves of the wheat plant to yield beautiful green Holi color.
Experiment with different shades of green by mixing henna powder with equal quantity of any flour.
To get a green solution, you can mix two teaspoons of mehendi in one litre of water and stir well.
Henna paste leaves more long-lasting stains and is good for hair.
