Skeleton leaves

[missie]

Hi guys. I've seen pics of nail art done with skeleton leaves. They look so delicate and effective. Can anyone please tell me where I can get some, and if they are easy to use. I use acrylic l&p. I haven't done much nail art apart from glitter, rhinestones etc. How do you apply them? xx

You can usually get them in craft shops xx

They sell these at Hobbycraft.. I'm afraid I haven't used any.

Thanks guys. Do you just place them on the nail, then cover with clear acrylic?

Hi there, when I use them I place a thin layer of clear down first, then use some resin to adhere the leaf to to the clear and then place clear over the top to build the structure. Skeleton leaves can be quite difficult to work with so make you have some tweezers handy.
