Allo polish Pals!
How are you all doing today? I hope you
had an amazing weekend! Let me know what you got up to or what was
the highlight of your weekend.
I've set
myself some goals for this week. I've not been as active as I was –
the odd days at work really throw me off but I figure on the days
when I am not working I've no excuse not to slip
in a work out.
You guys might have noticed by now.. I
kinda like painting food! I don't enjoy eating all the food I paint
(in real life, not literally trying to eat the food I paint on my
nails..hurhur.) but there are some foods that look so pretty! Today's
nail art is a good example of pretty looking food I don't actually
eat myself.
I really don't have a sweet tooth at
all!
Actually, one of the main reasons I
like painting food is because of all the bright colours, different
shapes and the challenge of trying to mix the different colours with
highlights and shadows. That's my kind of fun!
For this design I began with my usual
base coat of OPI's 'Nail Envy' and once dry I applied two coats of
Staycation, a beautiful warm soft brown from ORLY's 'Breathable'
collection. I then added a thin coat of my Pro-FX top coat and again
allowed to dry. I then moved in with my Pure Color brush in a size
#10 and my acrylic paints. Once I had painted my sweet treats I
sealed them in with another 2 layers of top coat and eventually added
Barry M's matte top coat for a nice smooth and even finish.
I also added little confetti triangles to each nail using the main colours of the treats on each nail.
I am rather happy with how these turned
out. If there's any more food you'd like to see me paint just let me
know! Painting food is all the joy without pesky calories, haha!
What is your favourite sweet
treat to have? What do you think of this design?
Thank you so much for visiting today,
its totally acceptable for you to go grab a doughnut or cupcake right
about now. I hope you have an awesome day! I'll catch you again on
Wednesday.
Love,
Ithi
What an adorable design! I love the little cupcakes that you've done on these nails. The colours are just fantastic!
ReplyDeleteOMG- that is so creative and artful... my problem is, I would try to eat them! Great work on those nails.
ReplyDeleteI love this art a little more - I have given up sugar, so while I can't eat sugar I sure can wear it!!! The donut art is my favorite here.
