Hey ladies! Before you give up on reading this, I swear this isn’t as hard as it looks. Doing just one of these at a time on a ring finger is adorable, especially for the newly engaged chica!
YOU WILL NEED:
- Toothpicks
- Polish
- Polish remover
HOW TO:
- Choose your colors… I used “Alpine Snow”, “Vodka & Caviar”, & “Lincoln Park After Dark” all by OPI
- I started with a clear base coat, followed by painting all my fingers with the white (I used white so the contrast would be high for photos- you don’t have to)
- Next put a couple drops of color on a surface you don’t care about, a zip lock baggie is perfect
- WAIT a couple minutes to let the polish thicken a bit
- For a heart- Start with two dots, and lightly and SLOWLY drag them into a point, you’ll probably need to dip your toothpick again to add a little more paint and “fatten” up your shape
- For a music note- Start with two dots, and then a top horizontal line above (I think it’s much easier to do the top line first)
- Dip your toothpick into fresh polish as needed, and connect the top line to your dots
- Finish with a top coat
- Easy peasy :)
