Nail Art - when things go wrong.



I read about doing gradients using sponges so I decided to give it a go! I bought some sponges and pulled out my brightest pinkest polishes. I ended up with a sponge full of polish, some bottles of nailpolish which where much emptier than when I started and some fingernails covered in little flecks of sponge. So... yeah. Took it all off and started again and just did some pink stripes.






For this next design my idea was to just do some thin vertical stripes on a neutral base colour. Some of them kind of smudged a bit and started to come off when I did the second stripes... so I just went with it and embraced the dirtiness. It turned out really well even if it wasn't what I initially started out doing.
