NailsLikeLace: Is it too early to start 4th of July manicures?!

Is it too early to start 4th of July manicures?!

I have been LOVING the fishtail braid nails lately, so I decided to create said look as my first Indepence Day mani! ^.^

Love love love these! Except this time, I got impatient and just freehanded the last half of the braid so it would go faster! =P

I was almost afraid to add the glitter at first, I thought maybe it would be too much. I debating putting the sparkles on just the blue parts, but I really like it all over!

For this, I used Sally Hansen Thinking of Blue, and Whirlwind White, NYC Big Apple Red, and the glitter is an L.A. Colors that I don't have a name for because they fail at putting names on their bottles!

Have you done a 4th of July look yet, or have something planned? Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day! =)

Not to early at all. And this is absolutely fabulous. Once my nails get a bit longer I want to give this style a try.

You should! I don't have enough browns but that'd be really pretty! I'll see if I can get the tut off of instagram that I used for you!

Thanks! This one didn't take as long, I got impatient and free handed most of
The stripes so it was about half the time or less.
