What is irony? Drawing trees on paper…
For the Earth Day which happens to be today, I painted trees on my nails. Well, not the whole trees, just branches with green leaves :)
Classic and pure colors of nature for the Earth friendly nail art – green, brown and yellow. I painted my nails green with Orly Green Apple (3 coats). I haven’t swatched this green yet and I doubt I ever will, as I don’t like it on my nails solo. The color is beautiful, and that’s why I bough it, but it’s just not for me.
Over the green base I sponged some yellow. The tree branches and green leaves are painted freehand. Here’s the design a bit closer:
The products list for the Earth Day nail art:
- Orly Green Apple – light green base, the color does remind me of green apples!
- Orly Lemonade – pastel yellow for sponging
- Acrylic colors for the tree branches and green leaves
- Clear top
That’s it :) Thank you for reading and have a happy Earth friendly Monday!
Lovely tree branches for Earth Day! I love Orly Green Apple on you!
Thank you Ina :) I don’t often wear green, but when I do it feels refreshing, especially with such a cheerful color as Green Apple
It is so lovely, and I think that Orly might need to be in my collection too :)
Oh I’m sure Green Apple willl make a great base for your floral nail designs!
Lovely!
Thank you Natalie!
It’s some pretty nail art even though I don’t like green (and like to repeat that I don’t like it ^_^)
Thank you dear :) yep, I remember about your special love for green and brown ;))
I think by now everyone remembers XD
hehe it may well be :P
I really love your blogs, so beautiful and colorful! How often do you change your nails?
Hello Sabia and thank you! Usually I paint my nails 3-4 times a week, sometimes more often.. or if I like a color I can wear it a bit longer :)
Very pretty and sweet! Perfect for earth day :)
I’m glad you liked the design :) Green is the color of spring and nature, so I thought it would be perfect for the Earth themed nail art.
