So here’s more of the nail art that I’ve copied from my ‘willow pattern’ vase. I think they work. Well maybe not the brick thumb, but everything else yeah? This will be the last blue and white nail art you see for a while! I’m kinda bored of seeing them now.
Love these! Do you use a striping brush or nail art pens?
I just use a striping brush! I do have a black and a white nail art pen, but I find that the polish from them tends to crack on top of the base colour, which looks baaad.
I’ve noticed that with the pens too. I’ve bought quite a few brushes and none of them seem to work for me. Maybe if I bought a real striping brush instead of art brushes from Walmart. Thanks for the reply!
Haha yeah probably! You can get them cheap off of ebay usually. I’m glad I’m not the only one having problem with nail art pens then. I thought I maybe wasn’t shaking them enough or something.
wow!!! great inspiration, love the nail art
Thanks! It felt a bit weird copying a vase seeing as it has nothing to do with nails!
I lose this! Beautiful work! Looks like it’s time for me to get my brushes out. Thanks for the inspiration!
Haha, erm… I’ll assume you meant ‘like’? I felt cheeky stealing it from the vase in the first place, but I think most of them worked alright as nail art. It’s always time to get the brushes out!
Beautiful!
Thanks, I enjoyed painting them. I usually start off like ‘oh hey, that’ll be a good idea’ and then wanting to punch myself in the face like an hour later when it’s not worked out. But not this time!
lol, usually when I spend so much time on a mani I have a hard time taking it off.
Lol, I can totally relate to that punch-myself-in-the-face feeling. I’m always: how hard can it be? BEFORE I begin, in the middle of doing it punching myself seems like the best solution. But I guess that’s how we learn 😉 Love this mani and your inspiration too.
Haha I suppose so! Why do we get lured into doing such ‘easy’ looking, but totally difficult designs. It’s all for fun ae… Glad you like it!
Great idea! They look amazing!!!
Thanks, it was pretty fun to do!
