If you do much gawking or pinning these days you have bound to have seen the new trend in nails: Nail Art.
Some of it is just too far out there, some of it is just too much for me but attractive on those younger and hipper than me. But I love the artistry of them and all the designs fascinate me! Of course, I had to dip my toe in the pool, or in this case, my finger in the polish. I came up with a design of my own that I think is just right for me.
My supplies: a combination of nail polish and acrylic paint |
I used a fine brush to apply a diagonal stripe of silver acrylic paint to nails prepped with two coats of polish and completely dry. Once the acrylic was dry, I applied two coats of clear polish to seal the paint.
I think it looks trendy and fun without being to much.
I can imagine experimenting with some other colors and designs.
There's no telling how brave I will get! (Yeah, right)

Very pretty! The colors and the design are just enough. Glad you are feeling better!
Beautiful. I do not think there are any too over the top for me. I will try anything on my nails. Tried lacquer and it ruined them. Now I am letting them grow out again.
I'd love to paint my nails if I knew it would really stay put for a while. I always end up with chips. Yours look very pretty, maybe I don't do it properly.
