Can you believe Christmas is just 2 days away?!?! And not once did I attempt to try to recreate Santa and his Reindeer like I did last year. Not sure how in the world that happened but here is a cute one that I did last year! I kept telling myself that I’d redo that one to see if my skills have improved. Oh well there’s always next year…LOL!
So as many of you know I own A LOT of polish. And by a lot I’m sure it’s well over a 200 bottles now. SMH But the great part of that is that I always have the right color on hand to attempt just about any nail art that I come across. This week’s nail art is inspired by a picture I stumbled across. I immediately feel in love and couldn’t wait to try to recreate it! For the creamy peachtone color I used Sephora by OPI i Give Peach a Chance , NYC Black Lace and the gold polka dots are Pure Ice Bite Me! On my inspiration they used gold beads but I knew they would turn out looking crazy as hell if I even attempted to place them on my nails in a nice pattern. No need adding more grey hairs so I just made gold polka dots! The swirl design and stripes were drawn on using my Sally Hansen Nail Art Pen.
This was my first time using the nail art pen to create this kind of design and I think I’m hooked on those little pens! They make everything so much easier. The only problem was the black polish bleeding on the sides so I have to remember to apply Vaseline on the sides and cuticles for easier clean up next time.
Linking up this week to Glitter and Gloss, Well Shut the Front Door!, Lipgloss & Binky & LA Lynn.
Girl this is so beautiful!!!! I’m gonna need to borrow some of that talent you’re hogging over there!
Thanks Lolinda! We are going to have to get together and share tips over lunch soon!
Girl, that was supposed to be for last week. Had me all nude by myself.
I didn’t have the inspiration for this mani until this week…so there ya go! LOL
I’m not messing with you. LOL
Your nails look amazing!! Your polka dots are perfection! I don’t own any nail art pens, but I absolutely should.

Thank you so much Bailey! If you don’t own a dotty tool bobby pins and match stick ends work great! I lucked up and found the Sally Hansen Nail Art pens on clearance so I bought them all up! LOL They def make it easier to attempt more designs.
Your nails are so pretty! I never do anything like that, I don’t have the patience!
Thanks Roni! It’s like my own therapy. I love doing it now and always trying to think of new ways to improve my nail art. Because I suck at drawing. Hahaha
