I'm not sure if I've mentioned this before on the blog but my middle name is Bee. Yup. Bee. Not Bea as in Beatrice just plain old, 'as in buzzing' Bee. A weird choice I know but, hey, who knows what my parents were thinking! I do love having something a bit different about my name and Bee is quite cute I guess. One issue is I end up buying nearly everything with a bee on it!
Anyway! I thought it was about time I included a bee in some nail art. Jo has done bee nails before which I loved so I chose to do something different. This is actually a design that I have seen before but I'm afraid I don't know where it originated . Hopefully I'v e done it justice!


The bottom shot doesn't really show much of a design but you can see the polishes I used: Models Own's Aqua (discontinued I'm afraid as it's from their Pro range), and Rimmel's Cute As A Kitten Heel*. I also used my black and white Barry M nail art pens.
This mani was super easy to create. I used Aqua as the base colour on all of my nails. I then used a coat of seche as I can't wait for the base to dry! Then I used my white nail art pen to draw the bee on my thumb nail. Once that had dried a bit I painted the bee in yellow leaving two white circles for the wings. Once this was dry I went to town with my black pen outline, drawing stripes, and marking the rest of my nails with the dotted line. Let me know if you need a tutorial to visualise.
Do you have any interesting names or nicknames?
Hugs
