  • After applying your favourite undercoat apply a pale green polish, I used ‘Mint Green’ by Barry M.

  • Then using some black polish and my striping tool I created the branches of the cherry blossom. (If you don’t have a striping tool you could use a thin paint brush).

  • Once the black nail polish is dry use a medium dotting tool and some pale pink polish (I used ‘strawberry’ by Barry M) to add blossom to the branches.
  • I then used a smaller dotting tool and added a bright pink polish (I used ‘GNP 8’ by Barry M) on top of the pale pink dots to add dimension. If you don’t have a dotting tool you could always use a tooth pick or clothes pin.

  • To pull the look together I decided  to add pink gems, which I bought off amazon, onto my other nails and finished it off with my favourite top coat.
