Burr!
Baby it's cold outside!
With all
the snow finally on the ground, it feels like winter is really here! My little
brother was in the backyard with his friend and they actually built a snowman!
What does this have anything to do with nails? It inspired me to do winter
themed nails! What comes to mind when you think of winter? Well, for me, it’s
snow and snowmen, penguins and coldness. But when I was thinking what to do for
my nail art design, I thought to use blue and white, to draw snowflakes and maybe
a little snowman on a nail or two.
First, I started
searching for nail art tutorials on snowflakes. I noticed that a lot of
them had a gradient base going which I really liked! I found a really cool snowflake design on YouTube by Simple
Nail Art Designs, you should totally check it out! Here’s the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIDU0T7k0R8
I tried it out but instead of
doing the gradient design for the base, I just decided to make my base a nice
royal blue. Then I got my white nail polish and a thin brush to
paint on the snowflakes. It took a couple tries, but I finally got it! I just
did a simple design with big snowflakes on my thumbs and middle fingers and
little white dots on the rest (made some dots bigger and some smaller to make it look like snow). Here’s a photo, let me know what you think J
I wanted
to paint a snowman and a penguin but I felt like it was a little too much for
this design. I’ll definitely try it with another design though.
