Admittedly I'm not very good but I adore doing it! I find painting my nails so relaxing. Here are a few of my recent ones...

This was my first attempt at wet marbelling

Just a bit of glitter. With this I used red nail polish and crafting glitter. I found it have much more of a shine than just using glitter nail polish

Wonky lines 😉

Hidden rainbow - I used Matt black on top for a different effect. I let the polish dry for to long, hence why it went so messy

I had so many ideas with this one that I decided in 3 designs

I love doing my nails and try to make the time to do them once a week (although that'll probably go out the window when baby #2 arrives!) I don't have many pictures of what I've done though, only these ones...

I'm very into my painting my nails but no time for nail art! My sister loves it though and does nail art part time. She's always doing cute things to her own nails too...

Your colours you use are cute! I like the orange and purple polka dots. You can get smaller tools to get more intricate detail into your nails, I'm not sure what they are called though. I can ask my sister if you like.

Thanks. Your sister is amazing!
I do have some smaller tools but I'm so unsteady, I naturally shake quite a bit so the lines never look straight :haha:
 
Haha, I'm the same scamp, my sister definitely got the steady hands!
 
Nut shake your sisters are amazing! Such a talent!!

I love doing my nails and have so much polish it is getting ridiculous! I haven't taken photos for ages though so these are old photos. , I used to take photos of everything I did on my nails. I have got so much better with practice too, these look a bit rubbish Compared to now, I have got a lot neater!
