Cherry Blossom Fest- Cherry Blossom Nail Design

Hello everyone! Today on the blog we will be creating a cherry blossom flower nail design. When I was trying to think of a spring design to create I thought of/ got inspiration from Pinterest. I looked up cherry blossom nail designs not really knowing that cherry blossom season is from March to April I think even May. So this design ended up working out for this time of year.

Apply a top coat to clean dry nails, let that dry. 

Polish-
All of the nails polish with a shimmery pink polish (Nails Inc- Dream Dust) and then apply a scattered holo for an added shine (Holo Taco- scattered topper.)

Let that dry.

For this design we will be creating it on the thumb, middle, and ring finger nails, the index and pinky nails will have no design on it unless you would like to do a design on all the nails.

To start this design we will first make the branches. Take your thin stripper brush with brown paint on it, and make some branches on the nails, like the photos above.

For the flowers first we will make a pink paint (unless you already have one) take a white paint and more red paint and mix though together. 

To start our flowers take a linear brush with white paint on it and make one petal, then right away put pink paint right over the white to try and blend the two. Then make two petals on the side then two more under that, also repeat the blending steps for each petal. Also for this design we will make a few flower buds as well which is just a small dot. 

Do this for all of the flowers that you want to make on the nails. Most of the nails I made three full flowers and a few flower buds. 

For the last small details for your cherry blossom, make a small brown dot in the center of each flower, then with your thin stripper brush with white paint on it make very tiny dots over the brown dot, with some of the brown still showing.

Once you are happy with your cherry blossom design, apply a top coat to seal in your design and to help it last through Spring. 


Here is the practice design.

Hope all of you enjoyed this cherry blossom nail design!

See you next time for more nail fun!
