How to create Children In Need Nails!

As many of you will know, it's Children In Need on Friday so I thought I would create Children In Need inspired nails. Not only did I create these nails because Pudsy bear is a little cutie, but it's a fun design and it's supporting a good cause.

To create C.I.N nails you will need the following:
  • White nail varnish
  • Black nail varnish
  • Yellow nail varnish
  • Blue nail varnish
  • Green nail varnish
  • Red nail varnish
  • Orange nail varnish (Optional)
  • Dotting tools
Please do not feel like you have to rush out and buy dotting tools for your nail art as cocktail sticks work as great dotting tools. 

If you would like to create C.I.N nails all you have to do is follow my nice and easy steps.
1.) Apply the white nail varnish to your finger nails. You may need 2 coats depending on what your nail varnish is like as some white nail varnishes tend to have a thin consistency. 


2.) Excluding your thumb nails, apply big and small blue dots to the rest of your finger nails. This can be done using blue nail varnish and different sized dotting tools (preferably medium and large sized dotting tools).


3.) Excluding your thumb nails, apply big and small green dots to the rest of your finger nails. This can be done using green nail varnish and different sized dotting tools. 


4.) Excluding your thumb nails, apply big and small red dots to the rest of your finger nails. This can be done using red nail varnish and different sized dotting tools. 


5.) Excluding your thumb nails, apply big and small yellow dots to the rest of your finger nails. This can be done using yellow nail varnish and different sized dotting tools.


6.) Excluding your thumb nails, apply big and small orange dots to the rest of your finger nails. This can be done using orange nail varnish and different sized dotting tools. This step is optional so you don't necessarily have to add orange dots, I did just to give my nails a little more colour. 


7.) It's time to draw Pudsy. First we need to do his outline and to do this you will need to use a large dotting tool and yellow nail varnish. I also went around the yellow outline with a bit of black nail varnish.


8.) It's time to give him some features.
For the eye, nose and mouth you will need to use a small dotting tool and black nail varnish.
For the eye patch you will need to use a medium dotting tool and white nail varnish.
For the spots on the eye patch you will need to use a small dotting tool and green, blue, yellow and red nail varnish.


And we're done!...


I hope you all like my C.I.N nails! If anyone re-creates this design then you'll have to let me know as I'd love to see!

If anyone has any questions or requests then please feel free to comment below!
