Candy Cane Nail Art

Can you believe that Christmas is just around the corner?!?!  To carry on my holiday festive nail art I reached out to my instagram peeps for inspiration.  Many suggested candy canes and I just knew I couldn’t let them down…LOL!  And I also knew it was something fairly easy that I could do and it not end up being a big flop.

The 4 colors that I used were Sally Hansen Red Carper, Pure Ice Dazzy Me, Color Club Harp On It and OPI Alpine Snow.  For my ring finger I painted 2 coats of the white and let it completely dry.  I then arranged several pieces of nail art tape and painted 2 coats of the red.  And I LOVE how it came out.  Red Carpet is one of my favorite colors because of the sparkle of red glitter in it.  It reminds me of Dorothy’s shoes in the Wizard of Oz.  For my middle finger I used my Sally Hansen Nail Art pen in black to draw an outline of a candy cane, then just filled in with the red and white.  And to jazz up my pointer finger I painted 2 light coats of the silver glitter.  I’ve finally figured out that glitter seems to work SO much better if I paint at least a nice opaque color underneath versus just the glitter color alone.

So what do you think of the candy canes?  All of my Christmas nail art is also helping me get in more of a festive mood.  Now ask me if I’ve put my tree up yet…oops!

    Oooo! I really like this! The glitter on your pointer finger is so pretty and you did an awesome job with the candy canes! And I agree, doing holiday nails makes me feel more festive! Now all I need is to decorate my house as nicely as I decorate my nails (although I make no promises). 😉

        Hahaha! I wish there were elves who just came and decorated for you, in exchange for fudge and cookies (which I’d buy, obviously, as the point is to do as little work as possible, haha!).

    That is so pretty! I love the Sally Hansen Red Carpet. Working on my third bottle now lol. You just reminded me that I still need to get that Color Club polish.

      Third bottle?!?! Now that’s some love! I bet if I didn’t have about 10 different reds I’d be on my 3rd bottle of that color too. It’s so pretty and sparkly <3
