The Deathly Hallows! Harry Potter Nail Art






Anyone that knows me knows I am a huge Harry Potter fan! I was inspired by my visit to Levesden Studio tour to do some simple HP nail art! Sorry again about the poor quality of photos.

Colours 


  • Black 
  • White 
  • Red 
  • Green 
  • Blue 
  • Yellow 
Method 



Deathly Hallows symbol - 

Paint your thumb completely white, when this is dry use a narrow detail brush  to create the triangle, circle and line of the symbol. If, like me, you aren't very good at drawing circles it helps to do it in sections. The good thing about this design is if you make a mistake its simple enough to just start again.


Robes -
Again a base coat of white, doesn't have to be perfect as not much will be seen. In the 4 colours of the Hogwarts houses, red, green, blue and yellow paint a little triangle in the middle of the tip of the nail and a line running down the nail for the tie. Then using black, might want to use a detail brush to outline the edge to prevent mistakes, leave a gap between the tie and the robes and paint the rest of the nail black for the robes, and there you have it, black robes, white school shirt and the house tie.

Hope you liked this design!  :)
