How to draw flowers on nails: disassemble step by step

When the question arises about the original and feminine manicure, many girls think about what subjects to choose for design. You can stay on the latest trends or prefer the good old classics. Flowers on nails - an invariable pattern of new collections in each season. Where without them, because the theme of the drawings is diverse and multifaceted, can be used in a variety of situations. And even a novice craftswoman will be able to realize her favorite drawing in plant subjects.

To create a beautiful design of nails, you can use stencils, stamping or even ready-made stickers. But if you want to create not only relevant and bright, but also a unique design, then you should use hand-painted. Creating a drawing using this technique is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance. It will take a minimum of funds: two varnishes of contrasting colors, a final fixing coating and the tool itself. For painting, you can use a professional brush or dots.

In the absence of the possibility of their acquisition, you can use a needle, a toothpick (or hairpin instead of dots). First, it’s worth practicing to create the simplest dots, curls and lines. From them you can draw monograms, petals and other more complex figures. You can train on paper and on tips, smoothly moving to real nails. Simple drawings in a well-chosen color scheme look no less advantageous than complex professional painting.

First you need to select the type of drawing. You can create a pattern of forget-me-nots or chic roses on your nails, draw delicate tulips or bright sunflowers. The choice of colors is huge, so finding a design to your taste and style is easy. The most general recommendations of the masters say that for short nails it is better to choose small plain designs (for example, repeating motifs like on fabric or wallpaper). On nails of medium length or long, large exotic flowers look better: 1-2 pieces per finger. Moreover, it is preferable to make a pattern not on all nails, but only on accents.

Draw forget-me-nots.

• We apply the main coating as a background. It can be, for example, pink, white or light yellow. It will take 2 layers, each of which is made thin and carefully dried separately.
• To create a picture, we use dots or a hairpin with thickened round ends. We draw a little blue paint on the tip and put 4 dots next to it. We make several such flower blanks on the surface of the nail.

• When the petals dry, with yellow paint we put 1 point in the center of each. It will be the middle.
• Draw the petals in green. We also make them from the point. You will need to take a little more paint to stretch the point in the leaflet.
• To create additional image volume, you can walk with milk varnish on the petals or leaves, making highlights. Rhinestones can also serve as an additional decoration.
• Allow the drawing to dry well and apply a layer of clear topcoat.

With the advent of gel polish, the possibilities for creating a creative manicure independently have grown significantly. Gel polishes not only have a huge base of color variations, but also persistent. With proper observance of the application technology, the coating will last 2-3 weeks. You will also need a UV lamp to realize a unique pattern on the nails at home.

According to professionals, gel polish is even easier to work with than regular varnish - it has an optimal consistency. You can create drawings both on the dried coating and on the wet layer. This unique tool allows you to use many techniques to create a spectacular coating. Each season, nail art masters release new collections and create fresh ideas that can be implemented independently at home.

A popular combination of pattern with floral motifs, made on the basis of gel polish, with other techniques. This can be a gradient, decoration with rhinestones and glitter addition. Often, completely opposite techniques are combined in manicure: extravagant and delicate, feminine. Try one of the most popular patterns - roses using gel polish. It will take at least 2 colors. The most spectacular combination of white and pink, black and red, indigo and fuchsia.

We draw roses.

• So, the nails are well-groomed, fat-free and covered with a base for gel polish. This option usually has a denser texture. Therefore, one or two layers will be enough to create the background of the pattern. We make them as thin and existing as possible individually under the lamp for at least 3 minutes.
• Some believe that for a better drawing, you need to remove the adhesive layer from the varnish. Others do not recommend this. It is best to paint with the thinnest brush (size 00). It allows you to create the finest details and transitions. Although you can start by using the dots, as the figure is assumed straightforward and without unnecessary details.
• Take a little gel polish on the brush or on another tool, put a point in the center of the future flower and make a tail out of it in the side, like a comma.

• We draw the next “comma” a bit larger next to it. We place them around the first in one or different directions. We get the petals of a dissolved flower.
• We put another small dot in the center of the rose with varnish of the same color and glue on it a golden, red or transparent rhinestone. You can immediately a couple.
• Draw the same smaller rose next to it. Dry the picture under the lamp for 3-4 minutes. You can add a little shining transparent glitter to the petals.
• We fix the pattern well with the top and dry it under an ultraviolet lamp. Remove the sticky layer from the gel polish clinser. A fashionable rose pattern is ready.

Drawing on gel polish can be created with acrylic paints. This is especially recommended for beginners. A good way is that a curve or an incorrectly made picture can be easily washed off with water and corrected to the desired result. There are thousands of colors and shades of such materials. For work, it is not necessary to use special materials for manicure. Conventional stationery inks are also quite suitable.

Ready-made paints in the packaging are thick, so they will have to be diluted. To get a lighter tone of the same color, you do not have to buy several different jars. Just use universal white color. Adding it in different quantities to the desired tone, you can get different color intensities. Acrylic paints are used for a variety of types of manicure. They paint the base of the strip on the jacket. It turns out a very delicate non-trivial design of the usual coating for every day. Outlandish tropical flowers of the most fantastic shades are also painted with them. You can also create a gentle manicure for the bride using acrylic paints.

Volume 3D-manicure is very popular recently. Nail design strives for realism. This is facilitated by images on various subjects, which seem to be about to "jump" from the nails. Flowers are most often performed using this technique. They can be supplemented with "dew drops", rhinestones and other decorative elements.

Such a manicure looks very impressive. Despite this, not only professionals can create it. To perform volumetric colors at home, you will need a dots of small or medium size, a special gel, a lamp for polymerization. It is advisable that the hands are dexterous, because all movements will have to be done quickly. Material almost instantly sets in the air. The volumetric pattern looks great on long and medium length nails. It is allowed to use this technique on short nail plates. In this case, the volumetric elements are selected small in size. Not all fingers are decorated with them, but only a pair of accent nails.

A 3D pattern is applied on top of the dried main coat with gel polish. Each element is performed and dried separately. A small amount of substance is taken from a jar of gel dots and a small ball rolls with your fingers. A rounded petal with a pointed end is already formed from it. With the tip, it sticks to the nail plate. There are several such petals. The middle is made out with crystals. On the sheets themselves, emphasis is often made to match the main color, so that the figures are even more natural and voluminous.

First you need to learn how to make elementary drawings from simple shapes: dots, lines, curls. You can practice drawing first on paper, then on plastic nails, gradually moving to your own. Choose a simple but original design. You can add something of your own to the design - such a manicure will look even more impressive. You can start the first drawings on a regular varnish. They are often made with a needle or a toothpick, which gives thicker lines. With the advent of experience, you can begin to work with a brush.To begin with, it is not necessary to buy all the professional tools and materials. Enough of a couple of high-quality tools, like a brush and dots, and the rest should be replaced with improvised means.

What is definitely not worth saving on is the coatings themselves. It is not necessary to choose the most expensive professional gel polishes, but they must be of high quality. The lamp can choose the most ordinary low power. Have to spend a little more time drying. But the appearance of the future manicure will depend on the quality varnish of the desired consistency. Some beginners complain that they are doing everything according to the scheme, but the result is not as expected. This happens when coatings of the wrong density are used for a particular type of design or several types of coatings from different manufacturers are used in the same manicure: for example, varnishes, clinser, base and top.
