2012.11.22 - slender nails and flowers

Here's some of my recent nail art.



For Halloween this year, I decided to do something that had been trending more recently: Slender Man. I started out by making a simple gradient of grey on my nails. Then I added the dark silhouettes of trees, and finally I added Slender Man reaching forward to grab his victim. I got this design from thissss video; this wasn't an original idea. c: She is super talented though and it was really fun duplicating her art.  


This was the first design I did at the University of Washington. I decided it was finally time to do my nails again, but I didn't have time to look up any cool ideas. I ended up doing a really simple flower and vine pattern, but I rather liked the way it looked. It reminds me of the holiday season for some reason...


Lastly, this design is actually from a while ago. I believe I did this one over the summer. Those flowers would probably be much more impressive if I had painted them, but they are just pressed flowers. I got the idea from a youtube video, went out and picked some tiny flowers, pressed them for a week or so, and plastered them to my nails. I didn't think about the fact that they would brown after a while, which they did. After having them on my nails for around a week, the edges of the petals began to brown and I was forced to remove this design! It was definitely worth trying though and would be a great way to get a beautiful design in no time at all!

Hope you all had a lovely Thanksgiving and I am thankful for all of you coming to check out my page. Come back soon to see more nail art and outfits!
