Design Ideas
Before creating such a manicure, you first need to decide on the colors, the images of which you want to cover your nails. It should be based on their own preferences or symbolism.

In order to give the image of charm, you can decorate the manicure with sunflowers, to create a sweet and playful mood, draw daisies, for a noble manicure choose roses.
Since French floral manicure is a pretty popular option for nail design today, which is in demand among girls and women of all ages, nail service masters offer many options for its execution. Consider the most interesting of them.
- Small flowers. This embodiment of the French manicure is very popular among brides. Girls prefer the design of nails in the style of a classic french (using the basic color scheme), which is complemented by small neat flowers.Moreover, they are applied under an accent strip located at the end of the nail. Most often, flowers are also performed in white (to match the wedding dress).
If you liked the general idea, but the color palette seems too boring, you can experiment with colors and shades by painting your own nails according to your taste.
- Bright and catchy. Girls who choose this design are not afraid to be stylish and extravagant. This option involves the image of a large bright flower over the entire area of the nail. To perform such a manicure, you can use catchy tones for the base and print, or contrasting ones: the base is in pastel shades, the flower is in saturated.
- Mirror reflection. With this design option, the flowers are a reflection of the accent strip at the end of the nail and are drawn at its base. Stripes and flowers can be in the same color or in contrast in contrast.
- Flowers as an accent. In this case, color images are used instead of an accent strip at the end of the nail. Drawings can be applied in one or several shades.
How to perform at home?
Despite the fact that any beauty salon or a separately working master of nail services will offer you to make French manicure in its various manifestations, you can make a little of your own efforts and arrange your nails yourself. First you need to fully prepare the nails. To do this, they must be freed from obsolete design (if any), then trimmed manicure, care procedures (cuticle treatment) and cover the nail plate base.
After that, the main area of the nail should be painted in the selected color. Then apply the accent line inherent in French manicure on the tip of the nail. There are two ways to do this:
- by hand (however, only experienced professionals possess such skill);
- using stencils (in many cosmetic stores you can buy special stickers, using which you can draw a clear and neat line).
Only after this should you begin to create flowers directly. You can arrange them in a strictly defined order or arbitrarily. Floral print can be done in tone base or be contrasted. In order to draw flowers, you can use the means at hand - a toothpick or a needle.
For example, if you want to create an abstract image of a flower, then you should drop varnish on the nail, and then with the help of a pointed object give it the form of impromptu petals.
Flowers can be drawn more carefully and realistically. To do this, use stencils that can be purchased in almost any specialized store. Another option for creating a flower is to translate a drawing. To do this, you can use various options: stickers on a water or sticky basis, foil, etc. Flowers may differ in texture from the main coating. Matte prints on the glossy surface of the nail and vice versa look very impressive.
For the design of flowers, various options can be used, for example, rhinestones, glitter, small crystals, sparkles. They can be used both to create an ornament in full, and for its partial decoration.
After the manicure is finished and the varnish is completely dry, do not forget to apply the upper fixing layer, which will provide a longer process of wearing.
Thus, you can perform a stylish, modern and very effective jacket with flowers not only in expensive beauty salons, but also on your own, without resorting to the services of professionals. Do not be afraid to experiment, then the result will not disappoint you!
