Water Marbling.

Today I got an email from Raychul asking if I knew how to water marble my nails.  She had seen a YouTube video and linked it to my Facebook account.  So I watched this video and it came out kinda awesome on the girl, so I thought I would give it a whirl.  All you need is a cup of cold water, some nail polish, and a stick.  Also have LOADS of remover on hand as this gets all over your fingers!  I did all ten nails in less than an hour and trust me you have to work fast with this stuff because it will set up a skin on top of the water and that means its almost dry.  Be sure that you aren't near a fan or open air as this will speed the drying up.  So I used too many colors to mention but feel free to tell me your fave nail!!!

So first I will show you as you can see my fingers...truly hard to get off...however, I suggest putting the top coat on your nails first so you can do a bit of careful removing while not harming your artwork.
My left thumb was the last and hardest to do, however, it is my favorite as ugly as it is.  All this takes is a bit of practice and patience and you have a hundred dollar manicure done at home.
