Sweet Silver Bells seem to say, "Merry, Merry, Merry, Merry Christmas!"

To all my readers who celebrate Christmas, I hope you have a Merry one. 

I tried making some silver bells nail art.. not my best, but what better day to ask for Nail Fail Forgiveness than on Christmas?

My base color was a gorgeous deep blue - not quite navy, but close - Revlon Colorstay Midnight.  Look at that shine - no topcoat!  I love Revlon Colorstay polishes.


I took an LA Colors striper in silver and outlined bell shapes and filled them in, and then went over them with a Milani Nail Art Striper Art of Silver, for the glitter.


I tried to add some black to define the bells a bit..


And added some larger glitters from BornPrettyStore to make the handle and clapper of the bells.  I liked that little touch, and they were easy to apply with a little topcoat and the end of a dotting tool.


This is my favorite Christmas Carol, and this a capella version is my fave of all time.  Carol of the Bells by Pentatonix:


Have a peaceful season!

Thank you for your comments! They mean so much to me, and I read all of them, even if I don't always have a chance to respond.
