3D Christmas Tree Nail Art

Nothing to Disclose

 
Hi all! I have a bit of a nail art fail in my eyes, but people in real life were mesmerized by it so I thought I would show it off still! In my head, I wanted to do abstract pine trees and add rhinestones as the ornaments. Check out my post for more details.

I started with a base of China Glaze Glittering Garland, which is one of my favorite dark greens. Then I used a variety of green shimmers and made the branches or the trees.

While the polish was still tacky, I added a star at the tip of my cuticle as the tree topper. Then I added random "ornaments" all over the tree like you would a Christmas tree. I then added two coats of top coat to secure in the rhinestones.

It was difficult to see the art in sunlight, but you can see the defined tree shape in the shade.

I've been moving away from the typical holiday nail art, trying to be more abstract. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't!
