Nails: Long live King Arthur!

nail art 3 comments


It's no secret to those who know me that I adore television from across the pond. If you ever catch me in front of the TV and there's not a hockey game on the screen, you can bet it will be something British. Enter my latest addiction: Merlin! My husband and I were recently introduced to it and we marathoned the whole thing until we caught up.

While trying to think of a theme for my latest nails, I immediately thought of doing something Camelot-inspired. Here they are:

Top L-R: Excalibur, knight's helmet, Morgana's Fomorroh, chainmail, the Pendragon crest
Bottom L-R: Fleur-de-lis, shield, crown, Holy Grail, Fisher King's trident

I used a single tool for the whole thing though, in hindsight, I wish I'd have used a fine paintbrush for the Fisher King's trident and maybe the crown and Grail. Here's the tool, which I got in my brush set:


I picked mine up at a local craft store... you should be able to find a similar brush set at any decent-sized craft store.

Chime in: what cool nail designs have you seen lately... or what British show should I watch next? ;)

    I LOVE these! And your next British show should obviously be The Inbetweeners so we can marathon it together! Although Simon Bird nails would be kind of weird...

    Really creative! I'm terrible at nail art, I'd be lucky to finish half of those before my hands started shaking from nervousness. ;x
