Valentines Day Manicure #2: Pink Ikat Print

Two days in a row? I am on a roll! I am really trying to make an effort to paint my nails every day - no promises, though.

Today's V-Day themed manicure is a pink Ikat print. I used Kayla Shevonne's tutorial to help me out:


It was surprisingly easy to do! I used China Glaze Designer Satin and Seduce Me for the pink, and the white and black was done using Finger Paints striping tools.


It's not perfect, but that is the beauty of Ikat print - it doesn't have to look symmetrical!

Would you rock this for Valentine's Day?
