Posing with my umbrella, as you do |
I enjoyed doing these, they were all just sort of freehanded on. To make the water I just put a small amount of each colour on a paintbrush and painted to see what came out of it. I quite like the fact that there's a real mix of colours in there, and each raindrop is slightly different to its neighbours. Unfortunately this mani didn't last long, because my grey-dients were already in a state when I put this on, so I probably took it all off about 12 hours later. It was fun while it lasted though!

Such fun, and very thoughtful.
ReplyDeleteNice job, Jenni! :)

DeleteThat was a really clever idea! I would much rather see rain & umbrellas on someone's nails than see all the rain we've been having.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I agree! Hoping the weather stays as nice as it is at the moment!
DeleteThank you =)
I really need an umbrella!!!! Here in North Italy it's been raining since a month! :(
