Totoro Nail Art

Today I have for you, a nail art design that I spent 3hours on(in total for both hands) in drawing and perfecting it.


Totoro nails :D


For those who don't know what Totoro is, he is a character in Hayao Mizaki's film - My Neighbour Totoro.
Many have watched Hayao Mizaki's films and fell in love with them, and so have I.
Which is why I decided to come up with a nail art inspired by Totoro (:


Spent 3hours in total on both hands, I am glad to say that I am really proud of my "artwork".
If you're wondering why 3hours was spent, it's because I drew on both hands.


My left hand(:
You'll rarely see my left hand on this blog because I am a left hander so all the pretty nails are on my right hand.
But the result is pretty satisfactory for me.

For both hands, I had the same "layout" on each nail.
Thumb: Tiny "arrow" prints that can be seen on Totoro's body
Index: Makkuro kurosuke/Dust bunnies (which can be found at the start of the film)
Middle: Totoro
Ring: Chibi Totoro (a smaller version of Totoro)
Pinky: Makkuro kurosuke/Dust bunnies



I had so much fun doing this nail art(:
Which Hayao Mizaki films have you watched, and which is your favorite?

  3. Wow those are so CUTE. So you didn't use nail polish? Well now you've inspired me to give it a go.. But wow those are really neat. My favorite of his movies would have to be either: Howls moving castle, cat returns or whisper of the heart!
