Strawberry Fields Forever

My first nail post in my new blog! How exciting! 
So today I was surfing around google for strawberry things, and I found this amazing fabric and thought I NEED THIS ON MY NAILS!!! so here we are.

These are the polishes I used
NYC extra shiny top coat, NYC french white, Sally Hansen 85 diamonds and rubies, wet 'n' wild 455A totally rad, ORLY lemonade... I also used wet 'n' wild black but forgot it when I was taking pictures.
So I started with all black nails & a red ring finger
Add red spots for strawberries
Green bits for your berry leaves
five small white dots make berry blossoms! You can use a toothpick for this if you like.
toothpick on some yellow dots for seeds, and yellow and green dots to fill the center of your blossoms
clear coat and let them dry, take a hot shower to get any polish that got on  your skin off and you're done!
some details
all together now!
Send me picture if you try this! I'd love to see what you all come up with :)

  7. hey kelly!

    when i saw this post, i knew that i really wanted to do nails like these, but i just didn't think that my skill level was up to par. so i decided to try my hand at just the strawberry, rather than the pattern. i think they turned out pretty good. i posted a picture of them for you below! please let me know what you think :)

  14. yours came out great. i tried it and it was VERY hard to do. i think because i didn't let the red polish dry when i tried to put the yellow dots in them--the yellow dots were probably the hardest part the colors kept bleeding.
