Holiday Nail Art - Christmas

Christmas is just around the corner and I thought of painting something Christmassy on my nail to get me in the mood.



I used Gcocl's green (No 6), red (No 1) and Be Yourself's Soft White for this nail art.


First, I paint my thumb's nail the green as base coat and did french manicure on the other four nails. To make sure they are straight lines, I used cellotape as shown above and when dry, remove them.


As for the dots, I used the end of a hairpin I don't use anymore...


Red and White dots on my thumb's nail...just like the Christmas tree. =)


...and then red and white dots in a straight line for the other four nails...


Leave it for about 15 minutes. Make sure it's really dry or it'll smudge when you paint the top coat over it. I used Cutex's top coat for this.

Finished! I hope you like this simple nail art design for Christmas.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone! =)
