Frosty the Snow Man Had a Jolly, Happy Soul...

Good morning readers! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday if you celebrate it. We sure did! I've been busy since we got home and therefore am just now getting around to writing a new post for you all. Hope you didn't miss me too much ;)

Anyway, since it's finally December(yay!) I wanted to post my first holiday mani for you! It's not actually "Frosty the Snowman" but I thought it would make a cute title. This is just a generic snow man but I really love how he turned out!

I received China Glaze Snow Globe in a secret santa gift swap yesterday and instantly knew I wanted to do this kind of mani for you! The snowflakes didn't come out as cute as I'd hoped, but this mani was really all about the snowman anyway. :)



This is a shaded picture so you can see the true beauty of Snow Globe!

I used: Base Coat of OPI Natural Nail Base Coat
2 Coats of China Glaze Secret Peri-wink-le
1 Coat of China Glaze Snow Globe
Snowflakes: OPI Alpine Snow(such a fitting name!) and a striper brush/dotters for the snow flakes.
1 more Coat of China Glaze Snow Globe over the snow flakes.
Snowman: OPI Alpine Snow, Sinful Colors Black on Black, OPI I'm Not Really A Waitress(scarf and flower), OPI In My Back Pocket(nose)
Top Coat of Poshe

What are your thoughts? I plan on doing some tutorials on this design this weekend for you. I really love how this turned out and its putting me right into the Christmas Spirit--which I needed because we plan on getting our Christmas tree today and decorating it and the house this weekend. YAY! Thanks for reading!

Pin It!
