Start out with two coats of pink.

To create a small flower in the upper-right corner of my nail. I did this with a small detailing brush.
Then use a small doting tool to make dots coming of the petals of the flowers. And your done!!! Hope you enjoyed :)

These are some floral nails I did a while ago!

Welcome to Pocketful of Polishes! Thank you so much for visiting my blog! If you can't already tell, this is a nail art blog! On this blog I will be posting nail art that I do on myself! Some of the nail art I will post on this blog will be original, but some of it will be inspired by nail art I see online. I am also only in seventh-grade so I am obviously not a professional.
