Hiya guys. I am so terribly exhausted due to my lovely snoring husband and my little kicking puppy. I really don't know which one of them I was angrier at, but neither one of them will be sleeping with me tonight! Yeah I'll probably give into the puppy dog eyes tonight, but for now I can at least pretend I'll stick to my words haha. Anyway, for today I thought I'd show you guys some quick and easy Easter designs.
I really struggled to come up with Easter nail designs this year. In all honesty the holiday felt like it snuck up on me out of no where. If I have time I'd like to recreate my two main designs from last year that were really popular. But I'll probably end up just doing a repost if I don't have time.
Carrot Pattern Mani
Here's the materials used to create this look:
- Polishes: OPI My Vampire is Buff and KB Shimmer's To Peach His Own
- American Craft Acrylic Paint: Orange, Grass Green
- Pure Color Detail Brush
- Seche Vite Topcoat
I'm not entirely happy with the outcome for this one at all. The carrots were supposed to be a lot smaller, but my good detail brush got a first encounter with my puppy Sophia and did not survive. I definitely recommend aiming for smaller scale carrots if you attempt to recreate the design.
Adorable Bunny Mani
Here's the materials used to create this look:
- Polish: Pure Ice's Happy Hour, Doll Face, and Wild Thing
- American Craft Acrylic Paint: White, Black, Light Pink
- Pure Color Detail Brush and dotting tool
- Seche Vite Topcoat
When I was in the editing process of my photos I noticed I forgot one key element to these bunnies... their whiskers! Ugh, I'm so ashamed! But it's still not terrible, again I wish I had a thinner brush to work with. I attempted to record a video of this, but it was a nightmare angle to work with. I must practice recording!
Which one of the manis is your favorite? Don't forget the other ladies participating in my group The Nail Crazies Challenge on Facebook!
Your nails are so cute. I tried to do an easter egg on my accent nails, but it looks like a blind person did them. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteThese are all so cute. I love the bunnies and the carrots. I need to do something with my nails.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry about your sleep. I have a snorer and it drives me nuts! I do a lot of pushing and shoving at night. Anyway, I love these nails. They are suuuuper cute especially the carrots.
ReplyDeleteThose are so adorable! I especially love the little bunnies. Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute! Bad puppy Sophia for eating your nail brush!
ReplyDeleteOh my word! Now is when I wish I had longer nails to do this type of thing to! How cute. I love the bunnies!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, how cute are those little carrots? I can barely manage to paint my own nails, let alone make designs on them, so you have totally given me nail envy right now! Bringing this post to my salon tonight to see if she can do the carrots on my daughter, thank you :)
ReplyDeleteThey both look great, but I especially love the bunnies and dots! Really cute!
ReplyDeleteThese are super cute and just in time for Easter. I cannot decide if I like the carrots or the bunnies better! I think the carrots!
ReplyDeleteBoth really cute! I love the carrots best.
ReplyDeleteThose bunnies are adorable!
ReplyDeleteThose are some fun designs. You are not alone with a snoring husband. Luckily our dogs does not sleep with us or else, I will become a vampire lol.
ReplyDeletesuper cute!
ReplyDeleteThe one with the littler carrots on it are so cute!
ReplyDeleteThose bunny nails are gonna be the death of me! They are so freaking cute!!!
ReplyDeleteThese are all so cute! I'm not sure which one is my favorite! My daughter would love the creative designs.
ReplyDeleteVery cute. Our daughter has just started painting her nails, I'm pretty sure the really fun stuff like this is not far behind. Have you tried a tripod for recording video? Many cameras have a mount for them now and they aren't all that expensive. Just a thought.
ReplyDeleteThe nail designs with the carrots and the bunnies are super favorites. They're both so cute and photo-worthy, that's for sure.
ReplyDeleteThe carrot nail art is so cute! :D

I think the bunnies look cute enough without whiskers. Both designs are adorable though.
