Passover Nail Art

Heres a fun Passover inspired nail design.

1. Start by applying a base coat and then two coats of a sheet pink as the base for all the nails. 

2. On the thumbs, create two small wine glass shapes on each thumb. 

3. One one hand, paint a small bone with a white striper brush on one nail. Make a small line and then two circular ends on each end of the line(this is supposed to be like the shank bone on the seder plate). On another nail on that hand, take a green nail polish and make small blobs with ragged edges(for the lettuce). You can even take your finger tip and smudge the edges a little bit to help it smudge. On the remaining nail, create a small apple shape with a red striper brush(the apple is for the charoset). 

4. On the other hand, choose one nail and create the same thing with the green polish(the bitter herb). Then on another nail, make a small white oval(for the egg). On the other nail, create a small purple circle (the beginning of the onion). 

5. Paint your pink nails a beige color. 

6. Start adding in the details to each nail design. On the lettuce and bitter herbs, add value with different shades of green. On the apple, add a green leave stem. On the onion use w white striper brush and create white circular lines. In the wine glasses, use a red striper brush to create the wine dripping out of the glasses. 

7. Turn the beige on the pinkies into matza by adding white and black lines. 

8. To finish off the design, choose one hand and write passover in hebrew, and matza on the opposite hand. 

Easter Spring Nail Design

This is an Easter/Spring inspired nail design.

1. Decide which two nails will be your bunny and chick, and paint the nails pastel colors of your choice.
2. On the bunny nail, paint a white circular tip, and then take a striper brush and paint two white stripes coming out of the top of the circle.

3. While you wait for the white to dry, start making easter egg designs on the other nails, leaving one out to be the chick. Using the other pastel colors make polk-a-dots and stripes. For example, on the green nail use pink, blue, and purple. On pink, use purple, blue yellow...etc. Use a toothpick or back of a nail art brush to do this.

4. Using a tooth pick, put smaller pink stripes inside of the white stripes for the ears on the bunny. Make a small pink circle for the nose at the middle of the tip of your nail. Take black, and create to small circles for the eyes. Make two little lines coming out of the nose for whiskers. 

5. Start off the chick by painting a yellow circular tip. After that dries, use a white striper brush to create a half egg shape on top of it, so the chick's head look like it's peeking through. Create a circular line following you nail first, then make small triangular tips to look like a cracked egg shell. 

6. Add two small black eyes and a little orange beak. 

I did this easter look on y friend, but another fun spring inspired design is to just paint bunny tips on all of your nails. I did it on myself and it wasn't hard at all. You can use a pastel as the background, or a sheer pink like I did.
