I love the idea of decorating your baby bump with henna--I mean, you can't hide it, so why not flaunt it? This is an increasingly popular [baby shower activity](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-honey-pot-products) that celebrates the beauty of a [pregnant woman's body](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/well-people-pregnancy-safe) without harming baby.

This kit contains everything you need to apply your own [henna tattoo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-tattoo-creator)--except stencils. I would suggest you might want to enlist the services of an artistic friend.
