Manicure "Dream Catcher"

Masters of nail design constantly come up with interesting and original drawings to create nail art. One of the creative ideas is a dreamcatcher manicure - applying such an image is quite simple, although at first it doesn't seem that way. This manicure is ideal for light dresses, airy dresses. It will be a great addition to the whole image.

The dreamcatcher is a circle of wicker with woven threads inside. This symbol has spread from the indigenous peoples of America - the Indians. It is believed that such a talisman skips good dreams, and bad ones get entangled in a web of threads.

To date, the dream catcher bears no sacred meaning, which was given to him in antiquity. However, if you put a picture on your nails and include a placebo effect, then this symbol will contribute to the successful advancement of life, it will make the person more confident.

On the nails depict a circle with threads and other decorations or only individual parts of it. Manicure looks non-standard - thanks to this you can get a wonderful aesthetic effect.

To create such a design at home is quite simple. To this end, you should prepare:

• protective coatings - base and top;
• varnishes of several colors;
• brush of the required thickness;
• acrylic paints;
• Dots (a thin wand with a ball at the end — it is easy to draw neat dots with it, connecting them into garlands or laces).

Creating a nail design, first prepare the hands. The nails are given a suitable shape and length, the cuticle is removed, the side rollers are carefully processed. Then the master polishes the nail plate and apply a degreasing agent. After that they:

• cover the nails with a base coat - to strengthen and prevent pigmentation due to the absorption of varnish;
• impose the selected varnish;
• On the dried varnish put the desired pattern.

The image is created using a thin brush, dots and acrylic paints. Too much paint on a brush should not be taken - the brush strokes will turn out to be sloppy and uneven. First, a circle or semicircle is usually drawn, and then a web. It may look like a simple mesh or a beautiful intricate pattern - it all depends on the imagination. It is not necessary to draw a dream catcher yourself. It is enough to get a stencil.

If there is a desire to make an unusual and effective nail art, then sparkles are added, feathers or geometric figures are depicted. When the lacquer and pattern dry, they are applied a dense layer of top coat. It will protect the paint from cracking and prolong the "life" of the manicure.

There are several nail design techniques suitable for creating a manicure with a dream catcher image:

• Ombre (gradient) - smooth transition of colors with the lack of clear boundaries between them. Several shades are used, the gradient is obtained using a sponge.
• Lunar - the lune of the nail stands out and a concave or convex smile line is made. You can draw lines by hand, but many use stencils.
• French - a white stripe is applied on the free edge of the nail plate, the nail is covered with a colorless, peach or pale pink varnish. The strip is made by hand or by applying a stencil.

Dreamcatcher is used not only to create a manicure, but also as a decoration. The most common earrings and pendants on long ropes. Such jewelry will be well combined with nail art, which depicts a protective talisman. Extraordinary decorations in the form of geometric shapes and feathers are welcomed.

Such a manicure is suitable for ethnic style of clothing, close to the Indian theme. Beautiful geometric ornaments, fringe and embroidery, brown, blue, green, golden colors will look good together with a dreamcatcher manicure.

This nail art is a great solution for working everyday life, the main thing is to apply calm pastel shades. The best option is white, beige and coffee tones. They will not contrast with the strict office clothes in white, black or gray, so the image will turn out to be business and not defiant.
