Allo polish Pals!
Are you ready for fall/winter
2017?
Coming to a high street near you this
season, stock up on your winter knit wear and cosy apparel. Be ready
to rock the cold and shimmy away those shivers.
All geared up? Not quite. Don't forget
your nails, who needs cold nails this winter?
Baaaha you guys, I had this idea in my
head and I really wanted to make it come true. Before the comments
come in about how disgusting this is I just want to remind you that
this is really more of an extreme 3D nail art, I would never wear
this on a daily basis or for casual wear! I wanted to create
something that was simply interesting to look at.
This turned out to be much simpler than
I had first thought it would be. My initial idea was to stick the cut
up yarn on top of a semi wet top coat but that was really,
really messy.
On my second attempt I made some DIY
decals and on the final layer I gently lined the cut up yarn on top.
I was so surprised that the next day I could easily peel the decals
off of the ice cream lid I had created them on. Honestly, I thought
that the wool would come off or the decal wouldn't peel off in one
smooth piece.
I applied the decals on top of my OPI
Nail Envy base coat and used remover and a clean up brush to
carefully smooth out the sides and along the free edge of my nails. A
tiny splodge of top coat was used to help shape and seal the bottom
of my nails.
When I told my mum about my idea she
was sceptical, thinking I wouldn't be able to get it to look exactly
how I wanted, needless to say she was shocked when she came home from
work and saw my fuzzy knitted nails, haha. Now I am looking around
the house seeing what I can stick on next!
What do you think of this
extreme look, could it become one of those bizarre trends?! What's
the craziest nail art you've worn before?
Thank you so much for visiting, Don't
forget to say hi in the comments below, I love to read your thoughts.
I'll be back again on Saturday for some more nail fun.
If you can spare the time, please share
this design! I'd like to create a buzz..or fuzz.. with it!
Love,
Ithi
Hahaha, what a cool idea! :D
ReplyDeleteHi sweetie!! What a great idea you've had and it has turned out super well!!! This is a winter manicure for sure!
ReplyDeleteSmuack!♡
I really hope this becomes an obnoxious trend, they are so addicting to see pop up! I love this idea. I hope there will be all types of spins on this!
ReplyDeleteI dont get to crazy with my nails. The most I'll do every once in a while is a junk nail. If the cat doesnt approve then it's a no lol, cool creativity though.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely Bizarre, but fun. Great for maybe a halloween costume! I barely do my nails, so I can't say if it will be a trend or not.
ReplyDeleteThis is definitely unique and something I have never seen before. Not something I will try but 100 points for creativity.

Hehe, this looks so funny! I'm already thinking of making tiny knitting works using thin yarn that you can stick on your nails as well... the ultimate sweater nails ;) (nope, not going to try it myself... my colleagues are convinced I'm crazy just for wearing green neon nail polish)
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha.. This is so hilarious. Your 3d wooly yarn nail art looks so cool and unique.
ReplyDeleteHa ha ...looks very funny :)
ReplyDeleteWell at least it was fun to try. And I do love the color, so there is that :)
ReplyDeleteI have never seen yarn sweater nail art before! It looks absolutely gorgeous! Hope to see it trending soon!
ReplyDeleteHaha... It's gorgeous but I can totally see how it only survive 10 minutes because of the fraying and the feeling when it gets wet! I wonder if there's actually a way to keep it waterproof!
ReplyDeleteBwahaha, that's hilarious! I love the fact that the cat wasn't impressed :D
ReplyDeleteThat is hilarious! It reminded me of this Very Special Manicure from some years ago -- do you have a pet? ;-) http://www.vampyvarnish.com/2014/04/cat-fur-manicure-tutorial/
ReplyDeleteOkkkkkkk, now this is definitely ummm, unique. I normally like your creations. But this one, I'll have to pass on.
ReplyDeleteReally awesome nails. I wouldn't have thought about using yarn as a nail art.
ReplyDeleteThis is totally different and unique. Looks like it took a lot of time too!
ReplyDeleteI love your manis more when I see your craziness in it. Can see your efforts. Even though it's a short time wear Mani it will rock for a long here on social media. 👌
