Hi!
I know it's been a really long time since I last posted :( I do post on Instagram a little more frequently though so if you have Instagram that might be a better way to get your Nail Snail fix!
Anyways, I've been seeing the houndstooth pattern around a lot recently, and I thought it would be super fun to try on my nails!

I wasn't sure if I could pull it off -- my freehanding is kind of ish -- but it ended up looking fine! As long as you can draw kind of straight lines houndstooth isn't too difficult.

I originally intended to do the pattern on all four of my fingers, but it took me so long to do the index and ring I was like "nahhh".
Of course, I had to make these matte.

I was so sad when these started chipping, they were really fun to paint and wear!
Thanks for reading!

ReplyDeleteAw, haha thank you!!! Houndstooth is really fun :) I feel like you can almost never go wrong with matte!
Deletewow that's free hand? I thought it was a stamp! amazingness!
ReplyDeleteHaha, it is! Thanks so much! Houndstooth is surprisingly resistant to errors though -- the patterns is kinda busy so the mistakes aren't as obvious, thankfully :)
