Fall Tree nails



Moderately simple fall trees.



These were my tools. I used Finger Paints Art Nouv-Yellow, L'oreal Boozy Brunch, China Glaze White on White, and Essie Little Brown Dress. Other tools used were: fine nail art brush, torn make up sponge.


Start with a base coat and two coats of a white polish. ( mine was China Glaze- White in White)


I tore off the thinner end of the makeup sponge and then tore the wide part in two. 


I used a sheet if paper to put a bit of polish on and then dipped the torn side of the make up sponge in it. I used yellow first because the orange I used is very thick and the yellow would have been wasted if I used it second.


I used Finger Paints - Art Nouv-Yellow for this. 


Next, I did the exact same thing with the orange. 


I used L'Oreal- Boozy Brunch for this. 


Can't really see it but after the orange I went back and did a bit more yellow. 


For the last step I used my fine nail art brush and a dark brown polish. 


I used the dark brown ( Essie- Little Brown Dress ) to draw in trees. This was most difficult for me. My brush is not the best and doing this on my right hand was seriously a pain. But they turned out pretty good. 


Add a top coat and clean up and it's done!
