FingerFood Theme Buffet: Retro

Hello lovelies!

I have my FingerFood Theme Buffet post for you all today! I decided to move these posts to Wednesdays so I won't have to post on the weekends. 

Let's get to the nails!

I know we're only halfway through the week but I'm really happy with the nail art I did this week!

Here's what I used:

Today's nails are my recreation of this pattern. I've had this design pinned for so long and I finally got the chance (and nerve) to paint it!

These nails started with 2 coats of Did You Ear About Van Gogh? I then used the other polish colors to paint some rectangle-like blobs (the pinkish color is acrylic paint). Then using light brown acrylic paint, I painted some lines and little stars on. Over that I used black acrylic paint to add the shape outlines. Everything was sealed in with HK Girl.

I really liked these nails! They're not my usual color picks but the design is nice, and I was able to paint this on both hands. A lot of people at work commented on them! (:


Thanks for reading guys!

    I just LOVE retro patterns like that. One of the two gorgeous vintage curtains I have tucked away in my storage looks very much like this. :)
    Great job! The colours you used are perfect. I'm going to be staring at this one all day :D
