Fat Queer Femme Latina. I enjoy painting my nails, clogs, 90s shoegaze, crystals, muumuus, dancing naked under the full moon, talking about feminism, and taking things too seriously.

After failing several times at painting this design on my nails, I finally gave in and bought some feathers. It’s easier than expected to put them on your nails and it looks soooo pretty.
These are actually real feathers from a pheasant. I found these on ebay. But I guess synthetic feathers for crafting would work also.
My base colour is 95E from the Manhattan&Buffalo line. I’m not sure if a base coat is necessary but I thought it might look prettier with a nude colour as base.
A few tips in case you want to try this too:
- I figured small feathers work really well. Also less waste!
- Always use a sharp pair of scissors to cut off the edges.
- Put on more than one layer of clear top coat. I did 4 coats.
omg how
