MINNIE MOUSE NAILS WITH BOW STUDS

Hey everyone, boo it's Sunday night, I have a full week of uni to look forward to! I'm planning a trip to Sally's though tomorrow so hopefully I can find something nice for there.

Anyway so a little while ago me and the lovely Sarah did a little swap and in the package she included a little bag with some gorgeous nail studs, decals and other embellishments she sells in here store She Sells Seashells. The store stocks loads of different nail art accessories for a really good price and it's based in the UK which means that you'll get your order in only a few days aaand shipping is a very reasonable £1/£1.20 for orders under £25 and free for anything above £25!

Ok, so that's a bit of background into the shop, now let's talk nails!

I decided to use the 3mm bow rhinestones* in black and silver. I thought they'd work really well in a Minnie Mouse inspired design, so I started with two coats of OPI Big Apple Red, then used OPI Alpine Snow and a dotting tool to create the polka dots.

To stick on the rhinestone I applied a small dot of top coat where I wanted the rhinestone to sit on the nail before applying a generous amount of topcoat (which smudged some of my design)
