Fruity

I tried my hand at nail art last night.

I started with my accent finger.


and then I though what do I do with all my other fingers, I painted them white, but I wasn't sure if I was just going to have white fingers or if I should do a stamp. So I looked at some of my bundle monster plates and saw some that had other fruits. I thought, I could free hand that,  maybe. So I took a shot at it.


And this is what I came up with. Cherries, Strawberries, grapes, and a lime. I tried doing grapefruit on my thumb but it didn't turn out the best, Also my right hand definitely doesn't look as good as my left, which I think turned out alright for my first try. All I used were dotting tools.



 MASH 5 X 2 Way Marbleizing Dotting Tool Pen Set for Nail Art Manicure Pedicure
These are the dotting tools that I have, I found them on amazon.com They are Mash brand and were like $4

I'm not a huge fan of this mani, I think it is going to be a one day mani. But it was fun to try something new and different.

 I have a disposable pallet from an art class I had which is great for putting nail polish on for dotting, or trying out swatches, or I even use it for stamping. It feels kind of like wax paper, but is a bit thicker.

 
The brand of my is Utrecht, which is an art supplier, but I'm sure most stores that sell art supplies would have something like this. (i.e. Hobby Lobby, Michaels)
