Where In The World Challenge: Ukraine

Hello my lovelies! It's Saturday and I swear I have no idea where this week went. We've had some graduation related celebrations this week and it was fun. Unfortunately, it's back to classes on Monday. Today I have a new country to visit. Ukraine was the next country on my list and so I did something traditional. 




This is a very simple mani but it took a lot of work because none of my red polishes stamped properly. This one didn't do it perfectly either, but it's still pretty good. The inspiration for this mani comes from some embroidered towels.

I went through my plates to see if I had something that would match the theme. I ended up choosing an image from plate BM-321, which totally reminded me of a traditional pattern. The base I used was, of course, OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls. I tried stamping with a bunch of reds and had to redo some of the fingers because they just wouldn't work. The red polish I ended up using was Sleek Geisha's Seal. 


This mani is totally different from what I usually do, but I still like the color combo. Thanks for stopping by! Make sure to check out some more Ukraine manicures below!
