Antique Nails

Hello. I'm Olivia, a young girl who loves nail polish. I wanted to share my obsession with all of you, and bring easy and nail art designs.



For today's design, I chose to do "Antique Nails", combining the plastic bag sponging method with some nail art. Enjoy!


First off, take a plastic bag,  and fold it in half, like so. Do that twice. After folding it, push it down with your fingers and crumple it into a small ball. Then, using a gold, paint the tips of the plastic bag.

Viola! Look at the ring finger to see what it looks like.

Next, take a white striper or toothpick to create white stripes going down each nail. If you want, add a antique silhouette, with a small dotting tool or toothpick and a white polish.

Nailed it! Thanks for coming, stay tuned for more nail art! Also, if you recreate this look, I would love to see it! Post a comment with a link to it.
