I know I'm supposed to be a "big girl" because I'm 21 and all but I love doing fun things on my nails, I will never be "too old" to not enjoy myself with things like cute little owls on my nails.
I know in all the pictures but the last one my ring finger is purple but I accidentally smudged it on the last step and had to start all over on that finger and accidentally switched the colors and didn't notice until I was done. Oops (:
Also I'm going to put the polishes I used at the END of this tutorial because I used a LOT of colors.
I used Nailene Perfect Tips stickers (I got mine at walmart for like 2 bucks.) Put them so you can see a tiny sliver of your nail at the top. When you have the stickers placed where you like them and made sure they're pressed down. Then you can start painting the main color of the owls.
Once you have you main color done (Mine took 2 coats for most colors 3 on some) and dry you can start the stomach color for each owl. I took a tooth pick to draw the outline of the stomach then filled it in all the way with the nail polish brush. I was going to put dots of the main color on the stomach but it was late at night and I got tired, but I think they would look really cute with dots on their stomachs (:
Once you have their stomachs done next you can do the eyes, I used the rounded end of a sewing pin to make the dots. You could also cut the tip of a tooth pick off and use that. then take the opposite end of the pin or tooth pick to make the black pupil. Once that is done you can take a new tooth pick and make a small triangle beak with yellow nail polish
Once that's done all you need to do is let it dry and add top coat and your cute owl nails are done (:
