Gold and Green Filigree!

I really like filigrees, and I wanted to make something really subtle that looked more complex the closer you got. So I made these!


I started with a golden polish, and before it dried I added some extra golden glitter as well. Then I mixed the perfect green, using different green shades, mustard yellow, white and orange. 
To make the pattern I started at a random spot on my nail, and just drew out from that point. On my thumb its at the cuticle, on my ring finger its in the middle of the nail. 
It did take a while, but it was worth it! It ended up very subtle, and my nails looked like a light, shimmery emerald green color from afar.
