Nail Art Studio: Yuletide Wreath

1. Apply CND Shellac Fieldfox or nude color of your choice and cure. Paint a circle using a liner brush and Wildflowers Gel Paint in black. Cure.

2. Paint leaves using a liner brush and Wildflowers Gel Paint in green. (You can custom-mix green with a little blue for a darker green.) Cure.

3. Add berries using a dotter tool and Wildflowers Gel Paint in red. Cure.

4. Add detail to the leaves with black gel paint and cure. Use white gel paint for berry detailing and cure. Apply Wildflowers Tack-free Gel Topcoat and cure. Line the edge of the nail with top coat and do not cure. Sprinkle Wildflowers Palace glitter onto the top coat for a sugaring effect, then cure. Gently brush off excess glitter.
