Description

With only a few tools, I was able to create a unique look.

Instructions

  1. Small 115822 2f2017 02 06 220858 dsc 0009%2b 282 29

    Apply a clear coat and let dry

  2. Small 115822 2f2017 02 06 220907 dsc 0010%2b 282 29

    Fill a disposable cup with water. Drop nail polish in the cup, alternating between the purple and clear. Use a toothpick to swirl the nail polish into your desired pattern. Dip your nail into the design. Use the toothpick to gather the remaining nail polish off the water before pulling your nail back out. Use nail polish remover to remove excess nail polish. You can use liquid latex or baby oil around your nail bed before dipping in your finger to make clean up easier.

    Use another toothpick to pick up and place gold embellishments. Dip the tip of the toothpick in the water so it will hold the gold embellishments. Place them along the lines of the pattern on your nail on one or all of your nails.
