Hey Arnold Nail Art

My cousin is in town, staying at my aunt's house to take care of her dogs. My aunt that broke her hip is now stuck in a rehab hospital for the time being. Cassidy has been a great help is house-sitting. She's young and artistic so she was happy to be my hand model for some cartoon nail art. :) You may remember her nails because she also modeled for my Doug nail art. We had a fun afternoon of pizza, painting, and watching old 3rd Rock From The Sun episodes. Lol

Hey Arnold has been suggested by a lot using my embedded form at the bottom of my page.
Thank you to LindaMaria, & an anonymous follower.

Cassidy watched many of the same Nick shows that I used to, so we did a mixed manicure with Hey Arnold and The Wild Thornberrys. (I'll post that hand tomorrow.)

Arnold - What a football head!

Gerald - the best friend

Helga - secretly in love with Arnold

 Harold - the bully that cries for his mother whenever he is scared.

Eugene - the geek with a hairstyle similar to a soup can.

Here's how I did them:
Started with some nude bases. Sally Hansen Cafe Au Lait, China Glaze Innocence, Essie Sand Tropez, and a franken for the african american skin tone.

The rest of the details are acrylic paint.

Here I changed Harold's skin tone to an acrylic paint because I didn't like the visible nail line.


Here are both hands together so you can get a glimpse at the upcoming Wild Thornberrys!
