Twinsie Tuesday: Re-Create another Twinsie's Mani

9:00:00 AM

Good morning polished world! How are you all doing today? I'm feeling a tad better and am happy to be back to blogging. Hopefully I won't be sick again for the rest of the year. I'll hold my breath on that.

Today is Tuesday which means it is time for another Twinsie Tuesday. Today we are re-creating a manicure another Twinsie has created. I have been itching to do a Halloween manicure so I decided to look at all the other Twinsie's Halloween manicures. After much searching, I found this manicure by retired Twinsie Elizabeth from Did My Nails. I haven't done an ikat design in forever so I had to try it!

Let's take a look!

Colors Used:

NYC New York Color - Jacaranda Flower
FingerPaints - Tie Dye Tangerine
Orly - Thrill Seeker
Orly - Instant Artist - black/white

Love, love, LOVE how this manicure turned out. I'm going to have to do some more ikats in the near future. I forgot how easy they are to do! To get the look, I started off with a base coat of whichever color I wanted. When it was dried, with my white striper I went through and I created the center of the ikat. With my black striper, I then outlined all of the ikats. I then went through with my polish and added the center color, and then finished off with a few stripes of the black.

I love the Halloween color combination. I wasn't sure when I saw Elizabeth's if I was going to like it on my own nails, but I really did. I need to start using more orange polish.

What do you think? Fan of this look?
