I spent this weekend playing around with some saran wrap nail designs. I am a member of a Facebook nail art group and this weeks challenge was plastic wrap art. This method can be done in many ways. I started with a gel polish base of Gelish Mint of Spring, this in my favorite gel polish shade! It is a bright springy green perfect even by itself. I chose several Essie and Zoya shades that complimented each other for this mani. I dapped each of the colors on the nail and then balled up a small piece of plastic wrap to gently dab to mush the colors together. I then repeated with a second coat and dabbed again. The result was splotchy and perfect! I finished with 2 layers of topcoat so there was no more "texture" left. I made a nail art decal using a butterfly stamp that I painted in and then applied to the nail afterwards. I will post a tutorial on homemade nail art decals soon! This was my first attempt so I wasn't sure if I could get it, but it was easy. I love the way this turned out I hope I win this weeks challenge, if not it is fun to see what everyone else came up with as well.
