NAILS | #ManiMonday with the Holiday Minions!

It is the second week of December and we are officially in the throes of the holiday season! My Christmas tree finally went up over the weekend (not decorated yet) and now I am feeling the crunch of the Christmas countdown both at my day job and with the pile of holiday reviews I have yet to do! Ever since the Essence Gel Nail Polish challenge of last month awakened my love for nail art, I have been on a nail art kick with wanting to tick off as many bucket list items as possible by the end of 2015. While there are certain limitations when it comes to holiday nail art, I have since discovered that you can pretty much transform ANYTHING into holiday nail art including minions. Trade those blue overalls for red and green, give these little guys some Santa hats and we’re ready for Christmas!

The Minions are Here!

I’m sure many of you have seen minions popping up as nail art all over the blogosphere so at the request of a friend of mine, I decided to do some as well! I have yet to see Despicable Me 2, but I have seen the first one and could not get enough of these little guys and their minion gibberish!

For my yellow base, I used Barielle-Lemondrops and then acrylic paint and a small nail art brush for the detail. I love these little guys and cannot stop staring at them!

Have a great weekend everyone!
