Autumn nails

What you'll need
nail polish
 primer coat and top polish
  gold
  orange
  dark auburn or dark reddish brown
  almost transparent or multiple coat gold
this is the style not the actual look
  Thick solid gold 
  black
  copper
Tooth pick or nail styling tool
Leaves rub on (if you want to cheat)
rhinestones and glue (optional)
Tape (optional)
Between each color allow the polish to dry I will not tell you to do so throughout the tutorial.


Apply primer coat to nails and let dry. Apply the orange polish half way up your nail (if trimmed or desired width if your nails are longer) from the tip and as if you were making a side triangle fill in the corner of your nail with the orange polish. (Tape can be used for a cleaner line) Taking your dark auburn polish repeat what you created with the orange filling in the orange half way with the auburn to create a line of orange and the corner with auburn. Taking your solid gold polish draw a thin line through the auburn at the same angle you have been polishing. Taking your gold transparent polish apply one coat similar to the direction and style of the other two colors from the thick gold line and just above the orange. This will create a beautiful multicolor fall look. Now depending on your skill level on the remaining primer coat part of your nail you can apply the rub on leaves or autumn decorative, paint a vibrant color leaves with a small tooth pick, add rhinestones, or just apply a top coat and leave as is. OPTIONAL: instead of polishing one side of your nail you can overlap and cross the colors on either side when you feel ready....Make it yours enjoy
