Winter Holiday nails

Getting into the spirit early as we still don't have a tree yet but atleast I have these to express my winter cheer for the coming Christmas Holidays! 











The right hand features a little snowman on a glittery silver and light blue french tip. The rest of the nails are just glittery gold french tips. The left hand features a stripy candy cane on the same glittery tip as the snowman.

You will need french tip white polish for the ring fingers and a metallic gold polish for the other fingers. Silver, light blue and gold glitters. A base and top coat and gold glitter top coat.
Paint your french tips first and let them dry thoroughly, use a dotting tool or the back of a small paint brush to make the snowman and a couple dots for snowflakes, paint the candy cane in white on the other hand. Go back to the gold tips and do a coat of gold glitter top coat on your tip then dip a make up sponge into the gold glitter and sponge on to your tip. do this several times then let it dry thoroughly before brushing excess off the nails and applying top coat. The blue and silver glitter tips are done in the same way but using only the clear top coat instead of glitter top coat. paint the details on to the snowman and the candy cane, let it dry then apply your top coat.


To complete my christmassy nails I painted candy cane stripes on my tootsies!
