A Step by Step tutorial, just in time for the upcoming holiday here in my country- 1st of March - 'Baba Marta'. We have a tradition to give and recieve martenitsi on that day so here is one idea of making a nail decoration in this spirit.
Here is what you`ll need:
- base coat, white polish, top coat, white, black, red, light and dark green acrylic paint, regular and detailed brush.
Now let`s see the steps:
1. Apply the base coat and make the french in white.
2. When it`s dry start painting the leaves of the four leaf clover with light green paint. Make the leaf heart- shaped.
