Choosing holiday nail ideas
Start with the colors of the day: red, green, gold and white carry most Christmas looks, black, orange and purple say Halloween, and red, white and blue cover the 4th of July. Then decide how much detail you want. A full set of hand-painted characters makes a statement, while a solid color with one themed accent nail is quicker to do and easier to wear to work. Holiday press-on nails and nail stickers are another shortcut when the date sneaks up on you.
Want to paint one of these yourself? The holiday nail art tutorials show the steps on video. Prefer to have it done? Save a picture and take it to a nail salon near you.
