52 Week Challenge - Week 30 - Water Marble Nails

 I always loved how water marbles looked on other bloggers. But when I saw this on the challenge list, I was not looking forward to it simply because it looked like a lot of work and I thought it would be complete fail.

Well, my water marble took several attempts...okay it was 3 attempts for a somewhat successful water marble manicure. This time, the fourth time was a charm...kinda. By looking at the picture, it's obvious that by the time I got to the pinky I sorta had the hang of it. If I ever try water marble manicure again, it'll probably only be an accent nail. There are some obvious errors but I think it came out rather well.
 I used Wet N Wild French White Creme as my base white. Then I used China Glaze Strawberry Fields (thank you Anna!), Sinful Colors Citrine (thank you Brandi!), SC Pull Over and SC Exotic Green for my marble.

Do you think water marbles are worth trying?

  3. I am like you I really think they are pretty, but they are really intimidating. The work involved, plus the fail factor. I don't know how some people make them look so easy :O/
