New Years Look: Fireworks Inspired Nail Art

Hello lovelies,

How was your Christmas Day everyone? Well mine was horrible and lovely at the same time. The Christmas itself was lovely, my fiancé’s family great, we got nice presents and ate good food BUT late in the Christmas Eve I started to develop a cold...really bad cold. It kept me up all night and I felt really crappy and it just didn't get any better during the Christmas day. The fact that I didn't get more than half an hour of sleep didn't help either :( And to top it up - when I got home I broke off a corner of my nail on the car door! Lovely... I wonder what will happen today...

That's enough of me ranting, let's talk about today's nail post. Christmas is not completely over yet but New Years is just around the corner. So this is the first in a row of New Year's nail art posts and I hope you'll enjoy them!

New Years Look: Fireworks Inspired Nail Art

This nail design is very simple to do! Start with painting your nails with dark sparkly blue nail polish. I have used one coat of Color Club Williamsburg over OPI Incognito In Sausalito.

When dry, use silver stamping or metallic polish and either freehand or stamp thin short and long lines coming from cuticles. I have used Bundle Monster BM-319 stamping plate and A England Excalibur.

The next steps are to add some silver dots using the same silver polish and dotting tool and seal the design with top coat.

It was inspired by those waterfall fireworks and I really like how it came out. What do you think?

Sorry to hear you had such a crappy Christmas Day. I can sympathize as I've had this wretched winter virus for 2 weeks & 3 days now!!!<br /> Feeling much better since yesterday, but still have irritating cough.<br /> This is a lovely design. The colours work so well together.<br /> Hope you have a better day today, xx
