Sometimes I Paint My Nails

I am actually sick right now, making my hands super shaky, which is why I went with a single accent nail this time. The design is fairly simple, my only recommendation for anyone trying to do the same is that they draw the lines first, then fill in the colors, it will make the colors less likely to overflow into where you don't want them because there will be a little barrier. Also don't forget to do top coat on only one of your fingers like I did for some reason (bottom hand, middle finger). (Click for better quality).

The flowers were done by placing two dots that are touching with a dotting tool, then drawing two-three lines towards the center with a sewing needle, and repeating until a circle is made. I used the same dotting tool that made the flowers to do the accent dots, starting at the top and moving between the flowers to the tip of the nail, this is done without putting more polish on the dotting tool, so the dots get progressively smaller and lighter in color.

This design is kind of psychedelic! Gives me a bit of a 70's vibe with the bright colors and pattern. The thumb starts in the middle and goes out, pointer starts at the tip of the nail, middle starts at the base, ring starts at the left, and pinky starts at the right, all circling out in a white, orange, teal pattern.

I made some autumn trees for my favorite season

I'm back! Happy Halloween! All of these designs were made by drawing with either a thin dotting tool or a sewing needle. (Click for better quality).

I created this one by using liquid latex around my fingernails, then blobbing on black, purple, and navy blue. Next I used cling film to lay over top of the nail while it was still wet. Then I removed the latex, rinse and repeat until the polish is dark enough. I then painted on some sparkly gold nail polish, dabbing it with some tissue to make sure it was not too thick. Lastly, one last cling wrap layer of just the blue.

Converse nails! These are done by painting on your chosen base color (black and red for the accent nail) and then painting about a third of your nail white at the tip. Then it is a matter of simply drawing on the laces and the line that goes around the front. (Click for better quality)

This design is created by drawing a pinwheel of the colors of your choice, then using a small dotting tool, toothpick, etc. starting at the middle and spiraling out. (Click for better quality)

To make these first make four squares of different colors. Then use a dotting tool to create the puzzle shapes. Lastly, outline all the shapes in black to make them more defined. (Click for better quality)

To create this design, do a small strip at the top (mine is purple) the from the top left of the strip, go diagonal to the bottom right of the strip (light blue). Then, with your third color (dark blue) draw a diagonal line from the top right of the original (purple) strip to just under the start of the second (light blue). Thake the first color (purple) and draw from the end of the last strip (dark blue) parallel to the one previous the last (light blue). Continue the strokes back and forth until you reach the bottom of the nail.

This design was super complex, so I got a bit lazy on the second hand
