DIY Nails Abandon Ship Nail Art


Press Sample


So you saw my review of DIY Nails decals a few days ago and here's some nail art with them! As soon as I saw these decals, I knew I wanted to go for a rustic look. I've been hooked on anything mildly piratey since I played Assassin's Creed Black Flag! I tried to mimic the paper that you always see treasure maps on in the movies. Anyone remember in school whenever you had to do a history project - you'd stain the paper with a tea bag and burn the edges (under the close supervision of an adult, of course) to make it look old? That's the look I was going for!
I used a few neutral Barry M polishes with the
Textured Saran Wrap technique for a very subtle mottled effect. I would have mixed a bit of darker brown in there too but I wanted to keep the canvas nice and light so the decals would stand out. How cute is the purrrrppy?! He looks like a real sweetheart but you know he's got your back if you find yourself in a tavern brawl after too much rum!
