Hi Goddesses
I'm only half happy with this mani. I like the bird's nest part, but the eggs, not so much.
This started with 2 coats of Nails Inc Ganton Street, a lovely lush shiny brown that either looks like pooh or chocolate, depending on your preference lol. And ... and I almost shudder when I say this .... I really like it on its own. Meeeee, wearing a brown ?? I know !! Bloody hell, I'll be falling in love with yellow next. No, actually, NEVER.
Ha,ha. So yes, 2 coats of chocolate pooh, and then with a large striper brush I made my twigs using SH Commander In Chic and then a little bit of Essie Jazz, and then a bit more Commander on top.
I really like the twigs actually, and I think I might use this pattern with some other colours - it's striking but unstructured at the same time.
The eggs, wellllll ... I think I was going for a Cadbury's mini egg look, and used Color Club Sheer Disguise (a fabulous grey duck egg blue), OPI Sparrow Me The Drama, CG Lemon Fizz, and Essie Jazz. I tried to make them look like they had tumbled together, but it didn't quite work!
I sponged the eggs lightly with SH White On to give them a speckled look, did a couple of tiny Commander in Chic dots, and then sponged again. Hhhmmmmm, not so fulla love for the eggs!
So there you have it, birds nest nails !!! And before you say it, yesssss, makes a change from birds nest hair - ha bloody ha.
Enjoy xx :)
