Pre-spring/summer nails.

These nails were designed as a pre-spring/summer (which tbh hasn't really happened yet because of this cold weather). 
The top picture is with my right painting onto my left (easier because I am right handed) and the bottom was using my left hand on my right. I began by painting a clear coat and letting it dry. I used a white, sparkly nail varnish for the tips of my nails (which, recently I found out to be called a lunule). Using a brown coloured nail varnish pen, draw branches coming from anywhere on your nail. I started at the tips and grew them from there. Then add any coloured flower over the top of the branches. I used a pink to show contrast. When the flowers are still wet, add a small blob of the brown nail varnish into the centre. Once it is 100% dry, apply a clear coast so the design lasts longer.
Instead of doing the white tips, apply any coloured background before adding the brown branches.

Well...I hope the weather starts to get warmer and sunnier instead of it being cold and wet. These nails would then be seasonal :)
