I love wearing Indian ethnic wear on special occasions or festivals. A Saree is one of my favourite ethnic attire to wear during Puja or family get-togethers. Again in sarees, I have a soft corner for handloom sarees. The beauty and feel of these handwoven slow crafted sarees are truly mesmerizing. It was Durga Puja time and Diwali is also approaching in few days, hence I thought to buy a beautiful handloom saree to celebrate all these festivals with extra joy. Huts and Looms Tissue Silk Saree In case you are wondering what a handloom saree is, then let me tell you in brief. Handlooms are basically handwoven fabrics made on a weaving machine called a loom. Hence, the name comes from HandLoom. It is a slow-crafted process, as it needs the utmost patience, creativity, and physical strength to create a masterpiece. Handloom sarees are generally priced because of this reason. I feel every woman looks graceful, powerful and amazing in a saree. Handloom sarees are representing our cultur
Watermelons are best friend of summer.. I love water melons but hate the tiny seeds which comes while eating.. There is a rhyme in my Son's playgroup book...
"Watermelon Watermelon
On The Vine , On The Vine
Sweet,Red & Juicy (2)
Please Be Mine (2) "
While having my piece of watermelon ,an idea came in my mind that to draw a watermelon art on nails.. And this will be the perfect summery nailart.. isn't it? Girls I am going to do a series of fruit arts in the coming months.. So stay tuned...
Now come to the tutorial ..
Products I need :
1- Pink-ish red ,black,green, pista green , neon-ish green nail polishes
2- Top and base coat
3- Small dotting tool, a wide brush..
4- Tape
Steps:
1- First put the cello tape in a manner to form a cone shape on nail excluding the ring finger and thumb.. See the picture.. Then apply a transparent base coat to protect nails. Now Apply the pinkish red shade.. Here i have taken pinkish red shade because the inner part of water melon is not pure red ..
2- Then put off the tape carefully.. Now apply a pista green shade on the outer edge of nails to form like a French mani..
3- Then when it will dry apply another layer of dark green polish like shown in picture.. In between paint the ring finger and thumb with dark green polish.. Here we will make the peel of watermelon ..
4- Now it's time to add some details to the peel.. Take the neonish green shade and draw rough lines on the peel through a wide nail brush.. Remember the lines should be rough and improper..
5- Now continues the same process to other nails as well.. Here i haven't any neonish green shade,so I added a pista green shade to a green shade and got this required shade.. Now time to add seeds to the watermelon.. Take the small dotting tool and draw three to four seeds on nails as per your choice..
6- After drying out everything apply a thin layer of top coat.. Finish..
Hope you all liked it.. Stay tuned to get more tutorials like this... Bye..
