Ikat

Today I have a nail art to show you as part of the Nail Art Sunday going on in Sweden.

This is my first Ikat pattern and there is a lot to improve to this pattern lol. But I still love the way it turned out! I started with the Michelle – B56 that I already had on my nails when I did this and used OPI- My Boyfriend scales walls for the white and OPI- Black onyx for the black. The pattern is really easy to do but you need a smaller brush than I had. I thought my brush was already small enough but I was wrong. Find the smallest nail art brush you have for this pattern, it’s much easier that way.

Have you tried the Ikat pattern yet?

    Jag tror jag tycker det var tur att du valde en “för tjock” pensel!

    Cait (Polish Hound): Thank you, try it!

    Cactus: Tack :)

    Gelic’ nail art: Tack :)

    Pamsan: Det är ett roligt mönster att både göra och bära :)

    Chaosophia: Jag tror jag måste testa med en tunnare också och få lite mer kontroll på de svarta linjerna. Nu kändes det som det var mer penseln som styrde…

    drinkcitra: Thank you! You’ll have to try it :)
