I have started really loving abstract nail art designs. So, for the week before Xmas I decided to take a risk and do an abstract Xmas Tree design with a range of different xmas tree colors, and of course, the classic green. I used a sparkly purple, silver, gold, black with sparkles and a green that dries like a glitter (and feels like leaves).

I first painted two coats of bright red. Once this dried I cut one inch long segments of striping tape. I used about 4 for each nail so that amounts to about 40 pieces. I laid two pieces to form the basic shape of the tree, then from those took two others and made diagonal lines. I painted thick coats of nail polish on two nails at a time and quickly removed the striping tape segments. The result is a cool basic xmas tree design with what looks like red garland.

Let me know what you think!
