Chanukah Nail Art: Chanukah Ornaments

Nothing to Disclose

Happy Chanukah! Tonight marks the first night of Chanukah, so to celebrate, I've decorated my nails in traditional Chanukah colors! Many celebrate Chanukah with what we call a "Chanukah bush." While it is not traditional, it's a spin on some Chanukah fun. I've adorned my nails with ornaments you may find on a Chanukah bush!

To create my ornaments, I started with a base of Cupcake Polish Menorah-ty Opinion (I don't understand the name at all or the play on the word minority--I wish it were a bit more understanding of the culture and just called Menorah Lights). That aside, it is a beautiful blue holographic polish with silver flakes. 

Using KBshimmer Sun and Games and Different Dimension Big Bang, I painted on lines and dots. There's no rhyme or reason to the pattern. The more random the better. I wanted to paint gelt on my nails, but it usually looks like gold dots, so that's what I was thinking with that. This was ultra glittery so it needed two coats of top coat.

This is just my first look for Chanukah. It's always a little difficult to create Chanukah nails, so I like to represent the colors of the Israeli flag and the candle light that shines so bright. I'm off to fry some latkes!
