Nail Art Sourcebook: Over 500 Designs for Fingertip Fashions
Product ID: 54031103
With the current movement for extreme and individualistic beauty, nail art is a way to make your own personal statement as well as turn your nails into the hottest fashion accessories around. In "The Nail Art Sourcebook", you will find hundreds of ideas for designs using a full range of effects, all of which you can do yourself or take to a nail technician to execute professionally. The sourcebook opens with an introduction that covers the basic techniques and tools you'll need to re-create the designs, including how-to steps on adding adornments such as glitter, gemstones and foils as well as methods for stencilling, stamping and three-dimensional work. A nail art gallery of over 500 designs, organized thematically, follows, with themes that vary from graphic stripes, chevrons and dots to floral and nature motifs, as well as tribal patterns and animal prints. Not only is nail art a great way to enhance your look for a special occasion or make a fashion statement, it's a fulfilling way to explore your creative potential. Review: Used can still be very good - This was a used item at a very reasonable price. When it arrived it was like new so very happy. It also helped me with my nail art Review: FANTASTIC SOURCE BOOK! - This is super source book of 500 nail art designs sorted into various catagories like glitter & rhinestones, romantic, animal print, geometric etc. Whilst this is a SOURCE book of designs its is not a GUIDE book as to how to reproduce them! It seems some reviewers have had confusion over this. It does not profess to be a guide book and therefore does its job. The photos are clear and vibrant and the range of designs is excellent. The book is of a good, sturdy construction being hardbacked and a woven binding. Essential as it is a book that will see a lot of use and be well thumbed over time. All in all this is a terrific book for its price. Many proffessional books can be VERY expensive. Its a book I will be coming back to time and again to spark the imagination!

nail art
I gave this 3/5 because the nail art book is great however, its a shame that they dont tell you how to achieve these on your own nails as the designs in them are really high quality and are ok great all together. This book would be great for someone that is learning to create designs for acrylics or glue on nails.

Fancy Fingertip Fashions .....
Bought as a Xmas gift for a young friend who has ambitions to train as a nail technician. You won't blieve the stunning - and they really are - simply incredible designs on the pages of this book. There are teddy bears, nautical designs, Santa is there, flowers, pearls you name it, they've thought of it. As someone who just paints on plain old nail varnish when I remember, this certainly opened up my eyes and I certainly notice the myriad of adornments on ladies nails now when I'm out and about. If your son or daughter, or grandchild is thinking of entering the world of beauty training and creating nails etc., then this would make an extremely useful, eye-opening and practical present for them.

Lovely little book!
If your into nail art in a big way and have a great nail kit and you know how to apply rhinestones,nail tape and jewels,then this a book for you!! It has 500 nail designs for the experienced nail technician or nail art fan but it does not show you how to do it. If you are new to nail art this book is not for you! I'm loving my great nails and mad designs and the compliments are a plenty! x

In perfect condition
I feel that this was an excellent bargain - the book was in near perfect condition and I like the idea of giving a used book a 2nd life. I also like saving money.

Bought This to Gift my girlfriend ! She Loves it !! Ideas are found in Google Images, but they're not as Organized as Provided in the Book. " How to do " wud be answered with " You Figure it Out ". So, Basically this book's got numerous Pictures covering many Ideas. This book is completely Handy, wud fit into any regular Messenger Bag, Its hardback, looks Professional. As always, Amazon did a great job Delivering me this Item ! Best Packaging, Fastest Delivery !!
