You can make darling art from your leftover nail polish! Whether you want to make something to frame or create some cute containers, this is such a fun and easy project!
Make sure to watch our short video for complete details on creating 2 different projects We made a prints to frame and used clear glasses. But, don't feel limited by these 2 ideas. Create away!
We gathered up some colors of nail polish that would work with the decor we were trying to match. That's what's fun about this project! You can use up that old nail polish and create some art that will match your room.
Working quickly, pour your polish into a disposable pan filled with warm water. The nail polish will dry very quickly, so pour them in right away.
You can also do the same thing with watercolor paper. What a great way to make a custom print!
Use a skewer to stir the colors together.
Roll your glass quickly in the nail polish.
Or if you would rather, use watercolor paper to make a print. Roll the paper across the surface.
Let your project dry.
Or if you chose paper prints, make sure to let them completely dry.
What a cute way to display or hold items!
If you opted for a print, framing it adds such a nice touch.

    Can you “set” the nail polish on the glass by baking it in the oven like you would with ink paints?

  • Diane Diane on Aug 15, 2022

    Will this work with acrylic paint as well or Just nail polish? Can you dip a canvas frame?
