Office Supplies Nail Art Three Designs You Can Do At Your Desk Ernest Hemingway once wrote, “When spring came, even the false spring, there were no problems except where to be happiest.” Clearly, Mr. Hemingway never suffered through a it's-finally-warm-again sunburn.

Nail Art Gallery Owl Nail Art Tutorial For this design, you will need several colors of polish, I used OPI San-Tan-Tonio, Color Club Almost Famous, Color Club Twiggie, Sally Hanson Lacey Lilac and a Black and white. YOu will also need dotting tools, or your prefered method of making dots. I used a small detail brush for some elements, but you could also just use the dotting tools or a toothpick. I started with a base coat of San Tan Tonio, this color is prefection and a must have, in my opinion! I then used a large dotting tool to add two large circles connecting in the middle, this will make the mask for the owl, I used the same color and a detail brush to add the wings. Next I added in white with the large dotting tool. The Usinga smaller tool, I added in the black to finish up the eyes I used yellow to add the little feet and a beak I finished up using the detail brush to add some lilac v’s, if you don’t have a detail brush, you could also just add some polka dots.

Nail Art Alert: How to Get a Real Feather Manicure at Home (So Pretty!): Girls in the Beauty Department I bought these feathers a few weeks ago and I knew they'd make a gorgeous mani. Here's how to recreate the look. It'll cost you waaaay less than what you'd pay in the salon! You will need: A base color. Before you start, prepare all of the feathers you plan to use by cutting off the ends. Paint on your base color, let it dry, then add a coat of your thick clear top coat. While the clear coat is still tacky, carefully place the feather on to your nail. When that's completely dry, apply a few coats of your fast drying top coat. Once that's dry, use scissors or cuticle clippers to trim off most of the excess feather hanging off the end of your nail. You can remove what's left with a nail file which also leaves you with a nice smooth edge. I like to clean up around my cuticles with pure acetone and a small paintbrush, especially after piling on all that top coat! And here's the result... What do you think of this manicure idea?
