31 Day Challenge: Day 14 (Flowers)

I saw this lovely floral design on mentalforpolish a while back, which was inspired by this robinmoses video, and I actually just did the manicure on the spot, while watching the video.



I think it looks really messy and sloppy but this was probablt my first real attempt at a more complex nail art design so I cut myself some slack! It actually looks VERY different from the design shown in the video. Ultimately, I really coudn't stand how sloppy and different it looked so I recreated it on my nail wheel, along with a couple of other floral designs!



The design on my nail wheel really looks much better and I'm so much more pleased with it! I also did a couple of Cath Kidston-inspired designs because I absolutely adore her floral prints!





My grandma saw my nail wheel and requested for one of the designs so I took the opportunity to practice painting the design on real nails instead of a nail wheel!



My grandma really wanted to pay me so I charged her $1 for her mani! HAHA! So technically, she's my first paying customer! (:

Delicate print nails next, so see you then!
