Today I have an abstract fall nail art simular to this nail art I did before.
You can also find the tutorial at this previous post.
Material for this nail art:
- Fall colors
- Striping tape
- Scissors
- Nail art brush
Start with applying one of your colors as a base.
Let it dry completely before applying the striping tape.
Use the nail art brush to give the stripes a different color.
Swatches, reviews and nail art. All art is made by me on my natural nails. Mostly free hand.

Day 240) Abstract nails (pink, purple, white)
Have you been noticing that I like abstract nails...?
After doing some other nail arts I'm burning to do another abstract.
And here it is:

Day 175) Abstract circles and stripes
For today's nail art I used this image as inspiration:
I like how the circles stand out on their own but also take part in the complete look.
Time to translate this to my nails I think...
Here is my step-by-step:
Step 1: The circles
Material:
- Tape
- Perforator
Take a piece of tape and fold it in two (sticky sides onto each other)
Perforate the piece of tape.
Unfold the tape and there you have two perfect circle stencils (that is...if your perforator is still sharp enough to perforate through tape)
Stick your DIY circle stencils on the desired place on your nail.
Then paint some horizontal colorful stripes on them.
I chose to do this design as accent nails on my index and ring finger.
Remove the tape.
Step 2: Fill up the rest of your nail(s) with vertical colorful stripes (I used the same colors from the circles). Topcoat and done!

Day 167) Nail art Father's Day
Today is Father's Day in the Netherlands.
My parents live in Portugal so I can't give him a gift in person.
But what I can do, is making a personal nail art for him and Father's Day in general.
Dear dad, I love you and when we have our holidays we'll have a drink together!
With love, your daughter.
Thumb: Daughter hugging her father
Index finger: Rosette with number 1; of course my father is number 1
Middle finger: Heart with tie
Ring finger: The word "father" in different languages
Pinky: Abstract stripes in greens
Have a nice Father's Day!
