'Life's tough...Get a helmet'

Now I’m a massive nail art fan. I’ve always loved to paint my nails but only joined the nail art bandwagon about a year ago after watching some YouTube tutorials. A couple of attempts later I was hooked...line and sinker. Pretty much anything inspires me, so when my brother showed me his new motocross helmet I was itching to get painting!

Apologies for the poor picture quality. I promise to get better, however any words of wisdom on taking good quality pics will be kindly appreciated – we are new to this so be nice J.

There were many wonderful snippets of the design I wanted to use, but I decided to go along with some of the tribal patterns and the big swirl as that stood out the most to me. These sorts of patterns can be super easy, yet really effective, especially when using 2 simple colours.

The black is Barry M ‘Black’ and the white in China Glaze‘White on White’. I also used some acrylic paints I got for Christmas (which I think St. Nick got from Hobbycraft) to do some of the smaller details.

Hope you had a good Monday!
