Drunk Reindeer

These are possibly my favourite nails ever. My drunken Reindeer's. I got the idea from another blog but changed it around a bit. You have the fatty with a bow tie, a reindeer caught up in fairy lights, Rudolph with a bauble hanging from his antlers, a reindeer with his head in a holly bush and the little upside down reindeer. 

I've taken photos of all the different stages of these nails, first I painted the bodies of the reindeer,

Then began adding details like ears

...and mouth and nose

Eyes and outline of accessories next

Followed by pupils and further detail to the accessories

Finally I made it snow :D

I loved painting these nails and will definitely be keeping them on as long as possible. Hope you like them too :)

Love Yas

Polka Dot Bows

I saw this design on another blog and had to copy it, theirs was on a multicoloured glitter base but for once I decided against glitter and thought it would look nicer on a plain base. 

My mum said the bows look like spiders which has completely ruined these nails for me! Probably over did the definition lines... something to work on I guess hah :(

I love bows.

Blue Bows

I have a new Essie (beach bum blu) it's a metallic blue colour, it looks really pretty on it's own but to make it even better I added these blue bows. Incase you hadn't realised yet I really really like bows.

Cheer bow nails

So obviously it's the Hornets birthday party on Sunday so I faffed around for hours putting cheer bows on my nails. I did about 4/5 different designs (most of which I smudged a lot) including gold bows (below) black and gold bows (like our York ones, unfortunately they didn't photo well) pink bows, white bows... 

...Then I got bored

I quite liked the gold bows (they didn't look as yellow in person) but they looked silly on their own and too much with all the nails painted, so I finally decided on French manicure + pink bows...

...now I just have to pick a dress :/

In the end I changed these, again! Just got rid of the feature nail to make it the same as the others. It looked much nicer :) 

Happy 4th birthday Hornets, we are awesome!

French Manicure + Baby Bows 

You Need:

Nude, White, Pink, Silver Gem, Angled brush, Fine brush, Cocktail stick, Top Coat

1) Using an angled brush paint the white tips of your nail, when it's dry apply a second coat

2) Paint entire nail with the nude colour

3) Top coat, this sets the 2 layers together and will make it last longer

3) For the bows paint 2 small triangles facing inwards with a fine brush

5) When they are still wet use a cocktail stick to pick up and place a gem in the middle of it

6) Top coat a thick layer over the nails with gems and a second coat over the other nails.
