Chubby Owls with their Zig-Zag Chevron Eggs

Haha hello there!! My title is so hilarious but a friend gave me some insight on this design so we are rolling with it. As you can guess it's another nail art day and these are my favourite. Oh yeah forgot to tell you that I've now swatched everything. There's me making a big deal counting down and then when it happens I forgot to say. Very standard me. So all days will be nail art days til I get more polish (who knows when that'll happen, I mean really).
Just wanted to say I've been rocking to some Latin jazz while editing and it's been great, also since I haven't been playing the piano as much and I have more free time in school I have more nail time. Being real this'll probably end cause I have serious things to get back to but it's nice while it lasts.

Aw chubby owls are cute and I like the colour scheme. Gradient chevrons are v fun too. I was going to paint something on my thumb but then I liked it without cause that polish is really pretty. I think th design works well, like pink, blue and green are great. The egg idea is sweet too.

I used the brush of the nail polish quite a bit, like for the blue and the zig-zags then I went in with the toothpicks for all the other details. I wasn't really fussed about proportioning here cause it's meant to be cartoony.

Valentine dripping chevron nails

Hello there guys!! I hope you are doing well, unfortunately for me I'm back to school tomorrow which is a sad time not gonna lie. I would've been back earlier but I'll explain why in another post. School is always full steam ahead and I have so many things I have to do -_- As I always say, after a while you might not see me much haha. I know it's much too early for Valentine's things but this colour scheme evokes those thoughts.

I was so taken with dripping chevrons the last time I did them that I had to do them again but with a different colour scheme and chunkier chevrons. I'm not impressed, I really need to revise that colour scheme cause it doesn't work and the thinner chevrons look much slicker and better. Overall I'm still pretty happy with this design cause the concept is cool but nothing special.

I did the chevrons randomly with toothpicks in a zig-zag fashion. I added the drips after finishing all the chevrons. I made the mistakes of putting colours too close to each other beside each other so I had to add sparkles in some form. This is matte again, I've seriously matted everything now that I have a proper matte topcoat and everything looks so much sweeter when it's matte.

Floral + Geometric + Zig Zag Nails

Hi there guys!! I've never had a zig zag pattern on my nails before so there's a first for everything. I found a picture with a bunch of prints and I wondered what they would look like together. I obviously made the colour combination all crazy cause that's what I do. And I'd first like to start by apologising for my cuticles, they are shocking and I'm really sorry about that, but they were not getting any better :/

More sorrys for the cuticles

As eclectic as this is I really like it, probably I like eclectic. It's a big old jumble of flowers, shapes and zig zags. I like all the crazy colours too, crazy has always been a bit me. I think it all fits together in a weird way, as do the colours. I don't know, this is just really fun. The orange ties everything together (kind of, in my mind anyway :)).

 I started with the flowers, I got the red and pinks and used my toothpicks to paint the flowers then dab little dots of the different shades. I went one shape at a time then for the zig zags (which took a long time) I painted the lines, waited for them to dry properly before adding the next lines. But it was worth it, the outcome is really cool.
