Chevron Nails

Hello!
For my first proper post, I'm going to show you the nails I've made for my mum to wear for a family wedding. These are the same as a set available in my shop, but I did them on custom sized nails for a perfect fit :)
So I started by painting the nails with a gorgeous bright orange by Nailsinc called Porchester Place 


I then taped the chevron design on the thumbs and accent nails and filled in the gap with BarryM Foil Effect Gold polish







I then outlined the gold with black striping tape (the very fiddly part where I ended up with striping tape stuck all over my fingers!)


Et voila! A gorgeous set of nails for a summer wedding, tailor made to match my lovely mum's outfit!
I'm also making a matching ring for her to wear...





 ... Obviously not finished yet but it will be set in an antique bronze flavoured ring to make a lovely matching statement piece.
Now I'm off to create some more awesome nails for my shop :)

Until next time!
