Hogwarts

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter is open in California!  I can't wait to go...I just need vacation time, a plane ticket, and money.  Anyone wanna take me?  No?  Okay...guess I'll have to settle for Harry Potter nails for now.

I'm using another amazing Essie polish from Salon Supply Store.  This color is called Haute Tub.  It is a black polish with purple holo micro glitter.  It is a lot more shimmery in the bottle, but still looks nice...just a more subtle sparkle.

Polish Used:

• Essie - Haute Tub
• Bundle Monster Stamping Lacquer - Liquid Gold
• Base and top coats

Other Supplies:

• hēhē stamping plate - 030 (Sorcerer's Stone plate)
• Rubber stamper
• Iridescent rhinestones - large and small
• Purple rhinestones
• Gold caviar beads

This magical design only requires some basic stamping and rhinestone placement.  To create this look:

1. Apply the base color using Haute Tub by Essie.
   
2. Use gold stamping polish to stamp Hogwarts on the middle finger, and the little Harry Potter icon designs on the ring finger.
   
3. Add large iridescent rhinestones to the base of the pinky and thumb.  For the index, add a mix of large and small iridescent rhinestones, purple rhinestones, and gold caviar beads.
