Hello Everyone!!!
Today I am gonna share houndstooth nails that I actually made for ABC Challenge. But for some reason  didn't like it back then and settled with Half moon. The manicure was just sitting somewhere in my computer so I just decided to share them and be done with it. I find this pattern very bold and beautiful. There are plenty of tutorial in YouTube. I followed one of them.
Remember I once shared a cute teddy bear bottle nail polish? I used it as a base coat. (its really annoying to have a nameless polish) Once the base coat is completely dry, with a  brush, I created the Houndstooth shape pattern using  acrylic paint. Now as I look at it. Its not that bad. What do you think? Let me know on the comment below.

Hello Everyone!!!
Day 26 Challenge "INSPIRED BY" PATTERN. Didn't we just had pattern challenge for more then week or so? Pattern again? o.O  Oh well anyway I am quite out of idea. I pour all my pattern idea on last week and its nearly empty. I don't remember any specific pattern to do for this challenge. But I did came up with something nice. I don't know what to call it. Let me show you the pic!!
Whatcha think?!?  This does consider as pattern right?!? Colors I used are Street Wear Glazed green 19 and Charm Limit black with Mode Love Top Coat.
 I love the Glazed Green and I totally adore the fact that Black is best complimentary color for it. I painted my nails Gazed green and let it dry. And with my trustee toothpick I created square and rectangle. And more square intersecting each other. A causal bag inspired me for this Mani. I saw it somewhere in downtown. It had color circle pattern. I choose to do square with just one color. I love the final product. It looks so chic in person. I hope you like it. Let me know on the comment below (:

Hello Everyone!!!
Thanks heaven I still have power and internet connection. Power station so ruined my plan. But anyway Day 6 challenge was to do something with the color Violet. I was kind of confused with the color. -Violet and Purple is same isnt it? o.O I hope so. Well I took the best purple I had for this Mani. The idea i had for this mani was simple disco light design. But the frustration was overshadowing me and the Mani keep going wrong and wrong. That why i came up with some other design that doesn't involve Taping. Let me show you the design!

 I know the lines are messed up. I tried my best to keep it straight but my hands were shaking like never before. I just create a pattern.  I don't know what exactly it called but  I have seen this pattern on shirts and bed sheets. I go inspired by lots of wired things tee hee :P

 I used Camieo Purple, Cairuo #16 Blueberry, Charm Limit 06 White And 07 Black. I Loved how the baby blue color contrast with purple but make it look beautifully eye catching at the same time  eye catching.
I painted my nails with purple and waited it dry. then with the brush from polish bottle I drew straight horizontal and vertical thick lines intersecting each other from blueberry. Then with black striper I just out line the before thick lines. I am still happy with this design even it doesn't look perfect. I am still in learning process! I hope you like today challenge. Let me know on the comment below (:
Please check out my previous challenge. I have put lots of effort on them Its sad I couldn't post them on time.

Hello Everyone!!! Hope your weekend is going awesome as you all are (:
Argyle print are very cool and fun way to manicure your nails with. You can find this print on socks, sweater but this print reminds me of the skirt that I used to wear to school (School uniform). This is a very colorful mani that you can get it in few steps. Although Argyle Print looks easy to make, it can be quite tricky. You need really steady hand to work with stripers or brush.

 What do you think?? I love the final product though my lines went quite thick on some finger but however  the color combination covers up all the mess. Its bright and so full of alive color. I used Charm Limit White 06, Cairuo #16 Blueberry,Caiuro #15 Orange, Charm Limit Black 07 and Mode Love Top Coat.

 I started off with white base, after 15 minutes of wait I drew triangle from Blueberry and Orange then with black stripes drew lines to give argyle print look. I made triangle directly from the brush of nail polish bottle. You can eihter use stripers or scotch tape to create a straight lines. I hope you like this Mani. Anyone want a tutorial?!? then let me know on the comment below. 
See Ya!!

Hello Everyone.
How is weekend going? I am here again with another DIY design.Quilted Nail design - It is basically creating dent effect on your nails.  It look simple but its kind of little tricky and need  practice and patience. Funny how I stay careful not to make any dent on my nails after each manicure but never thought even those dents could be form of art.  This Mani is also called Fish net. This design looks from  fancy to gorgeous!!

 
Looks simple and beautiful isn't it?!? I know the dent doesn't have straight perfect lines that because I am someone who cant even draw straight lines even through help of ruler JK!! I used Elegance Blue. I applied two coat of polish and let it dry for 10 minutes then applied one more coat and waited 5 more minutes. With the help of thick wire I  gently pressed the polish diagonally from both side to create the dent / fish net effect.

 
I have this beautiful blue beads so I place them on my ring finger where the dent intersects  each other. you can add rhinestone or any other accessories. I think adding beads gave this main more expressive and stunning look.

 
 For this Mani you need to have thick polish so apply twice or thrice coat of it. Thick polish helps to create the dent easily. And one more thing you need to keep in mind is don't let the polish dry complete or dent wont be formed. I will come up with tutorials and share some more ideas there.
Hope you like this design. Please do share your creation with me (:
Until then...

Hello There ^^
To be complete honest I was in no mood to do any nail art but kiddos do have the knack of ragging :| so i simply came up with this design. Black and white with some random dots is enough . This mani is very simple Beginners can give a try.



Painted her nails with black then added some random dots from my trustee toothpick .simply added some more dots inside the previous one with white. You can try it with more cheerful colors. It will look stunning!

Hello Everyone
Ever wondered how people get perfectly geometric nail art without a trip to the salon, well it is because of something as simple as cut-up Scotch tape. With the execution of scotch up you can make some striking designs.



By simply using a  scotch tape I made different shape nail art. You can use any colors you want and make random yet cool shapes on your nails. You can even use the color of your dress that you are wearing and make shapes - a Little matching things again. I never thought "Geometric" shapes could be this much FUN! This nail art  is easy to do but needs more patience as you have to wait to let every color dry. I ma not quite patience so my went a little messy -.-" never mind.
If you try this technique in home then do share a pic with me.

Hi Everyone
This Nail art is inspired by the T-shirt I am wearing ATM. Its a quick post about pattern nail art in others words. You can paint different designs and pattern according to your dress. Its cool to have prefect matching nails for your dress sometimes no? 




I think the design came out pretty beautiful and little mix match is fun. I have used scotch tape to create straight diagonal lines. I am so loving my nails right now. I hope this mani gives you some idea about how to create fresh design with looking at things around you. Everything thing has got pattern, all you need to do is look around and hand print it in your nails ;)
