Polish Days Something New – My First ‘Saran Wrap’
It’s time to bring in the new year with a brand new mani. This month Polish Days is all about trying something new, and believe it or not this is my first ever ‘Saran Wrap’. Am I right in assuming ‘saran’ is what we in Blighty call ‘cling film’? Whatever you call it, it has to be one of the easier effects to attempt, though I suspect mastering it might take some work.

I do like how this turned out, but it’s not quite what I imagined! I was going for bright and fun, but somehow end up getting ‘bright and fun 70′s tie-dye’. Some nails ended up looking different to others, which I’m putting down to either dabbing the cling film on the plastic before the nail, and others just going straight to the nail.

I think next time I’d like to try a single colour over a coloured base, and try to get more even patterns across all nails. I’m looking forward to seeing what techniques and/or polishes everyone else tried for their ‘something new’ post. wHat do you think? Have you tried saran wraps yourself?
