Dell Venue 7 and My Karva Chauth Henna & Nail Art

Yesterday was Karva Chauth, a festival celebrated by Indian women to pray for the longevity of their husband. They wake up early morning, pray to God and start a 'Nirjal' fast for the whole day - no food and most importantly no water for the whole day. They open their fast after looking at the moon through a sieve. The whole day is spent adorning hands and feet with henna, dressing up and keeping one self busy so that the thirsty dry throat becomes a non-issue.

I was supposed to do a Karva Chauth special nail art yesterday. But I was superly busy applying henna to my hands and was pretty low on energy and hence skipped doing something too intricate for my nails.

But what I did do was use my Dell Venue 7 tablet to click pictures. I know I have raved and ranted about the fact that I don't like the camera on the tablet. But since I was up early it meant I had all the sunlight I wanted to use the camera of the tablet. So I used it for clicking my henna and my final nails. I also edited the pictures on the tablet.

First let me show you my henna (if you follow me on instagram and facebook you must have already seen these)
