Hello Cuties~ I'm feeling super inspired this week! I really want to make another pair of nails! Now I know what you're thinking "you haven't even worn the last set you made". And you're right, but I feel as though those nails aren't the "everyday" nail for me. I could only possibly wear those in kurogal, ora ora, rokku and agejo. They're much too flashy for himekaji and that's currently the style I do the most (๑･▱･๑), thus started this need to create.
I've been looking at so many pictures to base my design off. My mom took a look at my sketches and said "looks like a lot of work". Lol (・∧‐)ゞ Nevertheless, I was eager to get started! I've pulled aspects from all of these pictures:
However, once I gathered all of my material, I had to step back and thought "maybe I'm way in over my head".
Many times my ideas or mental images are grander than what I can create. So I was a tiny bit hesitant going into this. I'm not even sure why, seeing that my last set went fairly well.
I finished the set last week! Well I still have to top them off with mod podge for high shine, but I'm basically done. What do you think of them? I made one mistake and it's going to bother me FOREVER. I forgot how silver flat back rhinestones react to e6000 glue; it creates this cracked look. I should have just used the mod podge only. But this is the type of "trial and error" I need to encounter so I can perfect my craft and one day open my deco shop. This was also an excuse to try out using mod podge as a glue, so fingers crossed these nails don't fall apart~ (; ﾟ▽ﾟ)/
Until next post~
~ Love you! x Amiman ~
