Nail Art: Spring Inspired Water Marble

I'm so happy, I finally got water marbling to work again!! Water marbling is a struggle for me. It is probably because I refuse to buy bottled water just to water marble, so really it is my own fault. However, I got two OPIs to water marble nicely in Brita filtered tap water. Winning! I used Gargantuan Green Grape and Can't Find My Czechbook to create a sort of spring inspired look. I started with a white base on the fingers I was going to marble and the other nails have two coats of GGG and dots of CFMC. Sorry the names are long, so I am abbreviating.

Love it! I'm so excited that this worked out this time. I did have to try several times before I found a polish that works, but OPI seems to be great for this! I just used the large and small end of a dotting tool for the dots and called it good! Hope you like it and thanks for reading!

    Beautiful! I have issues watermarbling too. I can get the polish to spread but then mess it up when I try to make the design.

    Haha! It involves a lot of cursing and re-trying!
