NOTD- Nails Inc Marble Arch Candy Stripes

Hello,
How was everyones bank holiday? Since I'm under doctors orders to do very little and rest I did exactly that and it felt amazing :)
I'm really loving nail art at the moment, its such a fun way to add a little new life into nail painting. Today I've gone with a candy stripe pattern using Nails Inc Marble Arch as the base colour and then my white nail art pen to create the stripes.
Am I the only one that finds that doing the notorious "other hand" even more tricky when using a nail art brush? I swear I am so left handed its unreal, I can hardly even hold the brush with my right hand!
Anyways, what do you think of the candy stripe idea? Its pretty easy when you aren't as ridiculously one handed as I am and I think it looks pretty funky too :) Is it a design you'd use?

    haha I have the same problem!My left hand is grand to paint but it's like being on a roller-coaster when I try to paint my right hand.
    I love the design!

      Thank goodness I'm not the only one, I always feel like a total idiot trying to do my other hand :P xx

    Cute nails :) I'm in the same boat as you when it comes to doing my other hand, it's always so much trickier and messier :p

      Thanks :)
      It really is so much trickier, I always find myself slightly dreading it because I know I'll mess up at least once haha xx

    I've seen this design on a few bloggers lately and I really like it, it looks so cute :) I'm useless at painting stripes though, especially with my left hand :(

    The dreaded "other hand" is the reason why I have tons of nail polish, but nails that remained unpainted.lol. Great post. Found you via the blog hop btw.
