Seche Vite Top CoatLOVE THIS & it’s so easy to do! So purdy
After failing several times at painting this design on my nails, I finally gave in and bought some feathers. It’s easier than expected to put them on your nails and it looks soooo pretty.
These are actually real feathers from a pheasant. I found these on ebay. But I guess synthetic feathers for crafting would work also.
My base colour is 95E from the Manhattan&Buffalo line. I’m not sure if a base coat is necessary but I thought it might look prettier with a nude colour as base.
A few tips in case you want to try this too:
- I figured small feathers work really well. Also less waste!
- Always use a sharp pair of scissors to cut off the edges.
- Put on more than one layer of clear top coat. I did 4 coats.
