Good evening, readers! I have an interesting manicure to share with you today. The nail art prompt for today’s challenge was Half & Half. I asked Mr. Adventures In Acetone for some ideas on the topic and he said wood and metal! So here is my attempt at half metal, half wooden nails.
- I started out with 2 coats of OPI Push And Shove for my chrome metal look.
- Once that was dry, I carefully painted one half of each nail with 2 coats of OPI Icebergers & Fries.
- I used the dry brush technique and added some streaks of OPI Suzi Loves Cowboys and OPI How Great Is Your Dane?
- I topped the wooden half with OPI Matte Top Coat and then added some dots using a dotting tool and OPI Push And Shove on the wooden side to tie them together.
What do you think? I think I would be happier with a more perfectly straight line using tape between both halves, but other than that it’s pretty much how I pictured it in my head. Thanks so much for reading!
