This past week was so busy that I haven't been able to do much
with my nails. About the only thing I had time for was an occasional lotion
application. Halloween night turned out to be murder on my nails and I ended the
evening with four broken. So, it's time to start over. I trimmed down all
my nails. I think these are probably the shortest my nails have been since the
beginning of the year.
This is the first nail art I've done in weeks but it feels like
decades. I decided to do a fall inspired nail art design because it is the
season and it's going quick.
Material
Base and top coat
Orange and brown polish
Makeup sponge
Glitter polish (optional)
Brown acrylic paint
Small thin brush
I started this design with China Glaze 'Stop That Train' (from the
All A lard collection) and I accented with China Glaze 'Boundary of Memory'
(from the Giver collection) on my ring finger.
Then with a makeup sponge I sponged the tips of my orange nails
with China Glaze 'Lug Your Designer Baggage'. I choose this for its gold
flecks. I feel it adds an interesting texture.
I then used brown acrylic paint and a small thin brush to draw
leaf shapes on my orange/brown nails.
I performed some clean up and applied my favorite top coat. This
is a really simple nail art design. Free handing the leaf shape is simple and
allows beginners to practice without the design being too complicated. You can
do the leaf pattern with or without the sponging and you can do it for an
accent or as a full hand nail design. I hope you enjoyed this nail art design,
thanks for stopping by, see you next time.
