Cloudy with a Hint of Sun ~ Nails

Gray and light yellow are my new favorite colors! I absolutely love the duo together. Since I have been drawn to the weather I thought I would do another post about it. Gray skies with a hit of sun :)

Ingredients:

• Gray and Light Yellow Nail Polish
• Clear Top Coat
• Toothpicks

First a gray bottom coat.

It would have been much easier if I had a yellow stripe brush, but alas, I do not own one. So I used toothpicks to make the sun rays.

 

I even overlapped a couple rays onto the next finger. Next create the body of the sun.

Pretty awesome. It might be better to do the sun on a different finger, but I like putting the big designs on the thumb. Enjoy!

Rainy Day Nails

The gloom of winter has finally caught up with me. It is raining, snowing, and windy here. The darkness of the days makes me a bit more gloomy than usual. So, in keeping with the mood of the weather, I painted my nails to look like the rainy day outside.

I like how messy you can be with this design. Don't worry about smudges or drops that are different sizes.

Ingredients:

• Gray, Light Blue, and White nail polish (I used a white art deco bottle with a long skinny brush)
• Toothpicks
• Clear Top Coat

First put on a couple coats of gray.

With a toothpick add drops of light blue on the gray.

With the white add streaks of white and small white dots.

Put on a top coat and you're done! You can alter this design to fit your own weather :)
