Nail Art: Owls In Love

Earlier this month, I asked you on Facebook what animal I should hand paint on my next nail design. There were a few choices and the one that garnered the most votes is owls ! And so when I finally had time to do my nails, I doodled a few owl inspired nail art designs before I decided to do a couple version!

Friends, please welcome Oliver and Olivia, the owls!

My first male and female version were penguins. I didn't think of naming them back then. But when I did my whales nail art, I figured it would be really cute to name them. I decided to do so ever since. :)

I wanted a dark blue base color for this design and I was deliberating between 2 polishes and decided to wear 2 coats of China Glaze Midnight Passion simply because it has the word "midnight" on it! What could be more appropriate for these nocturnal animals, right? I had no problem with the application and I think the subtle shimmer is perfect as background for this nail design.

All designs were painted using acrylic paint.

I painted the owls identical to each other except that I added a pink ribbon on the female one. Perhaps a few eyelashes would look good as well. And to denote that they are a couple, I freehand red hearts on the rest of my nails.

I hope you liked Oliver and Olivia. I'm having a blast doing animal designs. I think they're adorable and would make nails really interesting to see.

  12. Hi, Jette Fromm!
    Thank you! I enjoyed doing this design as I can relate with owls because I consider myself nocturnal. I am more productive at night. I don't have big eyes though. :P
