Ikat Print Nail Art

Good Morning! How are you doing on this first day of Spring!? Here in southern Ontario you wouldn't know it's Spring today. We have a wall of fog so thick that I can't quite see out of the window from my desk!

I have some ikat nails to show you today in a St. Patrick's themed colours. Ikat has been all the rage in fashion and its been popping up everywhere on various nails in a variety of colours and patterns. I chose to do mine in a chevron pattern.

I started with a base of China Glaze White on White. Then took a striper brush and created a chevron in quick short strokes with Ardene's Neon Green. Then I did the same with Essie's Vermillionaire, then again with Neon Green and finished off the tip with Vermillionaire. Then I took Wet and Wild's Black Creme and created two more chevrons to give the pattern a little more definition.

I really like how this turned out! I got a lot of compliments on it, or maybe it was just the neon colours :)
What do you think of the ikat print?
