Reasons for nail art

[princessamie]

I know there are plenty of threads regarding nail art for specific occasions but, after deciding to up my game on the nail art front, I thought about compiling a list of upcoming events etc which people may want nail art for.

Along with the obvious Halloween, Christmas etc. I've come up with these.
- Children in Need
- Poppy Day/Remembrance events and charities
- 5th November / Bonfire Night
- Movember

Can anyone add to the list of reasons for nail art?!

You sound like where we're at. We have decided to promote nail art over Christmas and offer a transfer or glitter free of charge but ask for a donation to our chosen charity. We currently really only offer glitter.

I was trying to think of occasions but think we will only promote from December so will start proper in the new year.

I'm totally un creative do mini transfers or maybe some plates would be good!

You could look at cultural festivals as well such as diwali which is soonish I think!

Thank you everyone! Its defo something I want to start promoting, even if I am a bit pants at the detailed stuff! Am wicked at a polka dot though lol

Definitely going to look into some cultural festivals I think and maybe find out when various charities have their awareness months!

Asking for charity donations is a great idea, especially over Xmas when nail art and glitter are a must have!

Look in a diary, a few pages before the actual 'diary' bit starts there's usually a page dedicated to holidays & events throughout the year!

Thank you everyone! Some great ideas to be getting on with!

I've had no clients today so I literally spent the whole day putting some nail art on pops!

Over the next few days I'll be giving more of your ideas a whirl so thanks!!
