If you are all about geometric designs and sectional bifurcations, and also giving every little element their due, then we have got just the right design for you. Karwa Chauth mehndi designs like this one that starts with swirls on top of the fingers, an independent yet stunning design on the pinky that meets a unique chadar design in the centre, and finishes with a geometric pattern which wraps around the wrist are a head-turner for sure.
There is a little bit of everything in this design, but they all come together to form a stunning henna design without taking centre-stage individually.
Play Around With Swirls And Dots

Yet another absolutely gorgeous henna design from our list of top Karwa Chauth mehndi designs, this pattern is perfect for someone who loves playing with swirls and dots. The beautiful use of bold and light strokes makes this mehndi design all the more interesting.
And we cannot help but agree with the artist's vision of using the swirls in a different manner than what we commonly see in most of the designs. The freehand swirl bel design that starts from the ring finger adds oomph to this already stunning design. The floral motif in the centre brings together this bel and the pattern that covers the edge of the back of the hand beautifully.
The Arch Of Swirls And Sheer Beauty

With a plethora of henna designs that focus on arch designs, this one from our list of Karwa Chauth mehndi designs comes with a slight twist. While the usual designs are all about adorning the inside of the arch, this mehndi design has taken an inverted approach and covered the fingers with lots of swirls.
(Seriously, lots of them!) The swirls and dots are the only two elements used over and over again in this design, but instead of making it look boring and repeated, they only add to the sheer beauty of this design.
A perfect example of tradition with a touch of modernity design, this is a great option for the women who want to get something unique done this time. Oh, and the best part is that your bangles and Kadas won't even interfere with the henna design. So go on and add some extra hand accessory.
