Oh d-d-d-dear! (Piglet Nails)

Oh hey there guys!!! I hope you're all feeling fine this Sunday evening. The oh dear is not to the Piglet design, but to my chemistry exam tomorrow. Piglet's phrase is perfect for my situation. Oh d-d-d-dear, chemistry is not my thang. Writing this post before some probable cramming. I decided to do some Piglet nails due to my most popular post (my Tigger nails) done around this time last year. I want to get round all the Winnie the Pooh characters, that being said I have done Winnie the Pooh too!! :)

Piglet's a wee cutie (personally I think this looks better in real life), I think Piglet was my favourite as a child, simply because he was pink. I was a pink gal then, still a pink gal now. I did the same kind of design as the last 2 times, I'm not sure how I came up with this the first time, as it seems to smart for me to have made up. But I'll take it!!

I started with a base of Lovely Me:Ex - White so the pink would show up. Barry M - Strawberry Ice Cream is that light pink.
Then I got my toothpick and Orly - Basket Case to do the nose and ears. The same pinks are used for the bases of the other nails.
On my pinky I added some Barry M - Pink Iridescent cause I need glitter.
Lovely Me:Ex - Black was used for the black details, I originally added some white dots to the eyes but this time it didn't work so I went back over with the black. I freehanded the stripes which I was VERY vary about, to the extent where I almost didn't do this design. But at this point it was too late to back out. But I'm really pleased with how they turned out. They aren't perfectly straight, but they're more than good enough for me!!

Well I hope you enjoyed this post, thanks for reading it and have a great day!!! :)
