12 Days of Christmas

While this is a "12 Days of Christmas" theme, most people don't realise that the 12 days of Christmas are actually the twelve following Christmas leading up to the epiphany, which is the day celebrating the arrival of the wise men.

But for this prompt, we were supposed to pick a line from the song and create nail art based off of it. I decided to google some images and found this beautiful drawing of the partridge in a pear tree.

I decided that I'd use that as my inspiration and created this nail art.



The background colour is Lily White by Ulta 3. For the branch, I used A-piers to be Tan by OPI. The bird is made from a mix of Tiramisu by Sephora and Coach Ella by Fresh Paint. The wing is A-piers to be Tan and the eye is Coach Ella. The pears are a mix of Envious by Kmart, Lily White, and A-piers to be Tan.
