Monster High DYI Nail Decals

Tuesday, March 26, 2013



Hello beauties! A quick post to share my nail of the day. I was in a playful  mood so I tried out my new Monster High image plate. I created nail decals by using the Messy Mansion method. 


For the base colors I used Sally Hansen Presto Pink and Brisk Blue.  For the accent nail I used WnW White  then topped it with the nail decal while wet. 


Here are the steps to make the decals. If you're familiar with stamping it's pretty easy.  Stamp the image and allow to dry. Then paint directly onto the stamper, allow to dry, peel off and apply to your nails.  Messy Mansion has complete, more detailed, directions on her website.  A helpful hint is to make sure your stamper is completely clean or the polish will transfer onto your decal.

To fill in the image I used Born Pretty's nail art brushes.  If you don't have a nail art brush, you can also use a toothpick but the results won't be as precise.

I hope you enjoyed this mani as much as I enjoyed looking down at my hands today :)  

Thanks to Messy Mansion for sharing this method. I see a lot more DYI decals in my future.
